LEAD STORY
NAME RESOLUTION AND SEARCHING: COMPARING LOTUS NOTES AND DOMINO WEB
ACCESS | Lotus developerWorks
In this article, we compare how Lotus Notes and Domino Web Access
interact with
address books to find and resolve mailing addresses. A Domino mail
server offers
end users the flexibility of connecting to their mail using either
Domino Web
Access or the Lotus Notes client. Domino Web Access provides a connectivity
option that offers the freedom and flexibility of a browser. Lotus Notes
is a
fully featured mail client that lets you leverage the extended feature
set of
the Notes client. These two mail clients are not mutually exclusive; you can
choose the mail client that best fits your access needs at your current
location.
Understanding the differences between the two clients can help you get
the most
out of each email client.

Plan to Raise H-1b Cap by 30,000 Moves to Negotiation Stage | TechsUnite.org
The number of H-1b visas available to U.S. companies each year may
increase by
30,000 if a Senate Judiciary Committee proposal is upheld over the next few
weeks of negotiations. Click below to send this message to your
Congressperson:
"I strongly oppose the Senate Judiciary Committee's compromise proposal that
would allow 30,000 additional H-1B visas each year. Instead, I urge you to
support the current House Judiciary Committee's proposal, which would
raise the
L-1 visa fee to $1,500, but does not add any extra visas in either program.
The increased fees would bring in more revenue, but would also more
accurately
reflect the cost to our society for supporting such programs."

Online DVD rentals expected to surge | CNET
The online DVD rental market is expected to capture a quarter of all video
rental spending in the U.S. and one-third in Europe by 2009 as consumers get
more comfortable paying for the convenience of receiving movies in the mail.

Bait and Switch: Corporate Life from the Outside by Barbara Ehrenreich |
TechsUnite.org
In her book Nickel and Dimed, Barbara Ehrenreich reported on the
lifestyle of
the working poor by temporarily joining their ranks. In her new book,
Bait and
Switch, she turns her focus to white collar workers in an age of downsizing.
Her plan was to search for a public relations job and then work at it for a
few months. The second part of that plan never happened, however,
leaving her
to experience the frustrations of the job searcher and the services marketed
to them. While the world she entered may be new to her, her revelations may
not be that surprising for those already there.

IBM to use Google desktop search deep inside firms | IBM Software
IBM and Google Inc. are collaborating to make it easier for office
workers not
only to search for local documents and personal e-mail but to delve deep
into
corporate databases.

Support Striking CWA Members at Sprint | TechsUnite.org
Nearly 1,000 CWA members at Sprint Nextel are on strike, fighting for a fair
contract against demands for big givebacks from a profitable company. They
need us all to help them fight back for fairness. Sprint wants to slash
workers health care benefits, cut disability benefits in half, take away
overtime pay when we're required to work Sundays and reduce time off
with our
families. And these demands are coming from a company that collected over $6
billion in revenues last year from local telephone customers.

Microsoft eyes making desktop apps free | CNET
Even as Microsoft readies a host of new ad-supported online services to
battle
rivals, the software maker has been mulling a plan to offer free,
ad-supported
versions of some of its desktop products, CNET News.com has learned.
Although
no specific plans have been made, executives within Microsoft are examining
whether it makes sense to release ad-supported versions of products such as
Works, Money, or even the Windows operating system itself, according to
internal documents seen by CNET News.com.

Sony to halt use of controversial CD protection | CNN Tech

Sony BMG
Music Entertainment, promised Friday to temporarily suspend making music CDs
with antipiracy technology that can leave computers vulnerable to hackers.

Billionaire reverses course, buys tech stocks | CNET
An investment fund controlled by billionaire George Soros increased the
size of
its quarterly portfolio disclosure 44 percent on Monday, showing previously
undisclosed positions in Intel, Amazon.com and eBay, and an increased
stake in
Microsoft, as of Sept. 30.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
China gears up for e-commerce boom | CNN Tech
Just like the U.S. tech boom of the 90s, China's Net entrepreneurs are
young,
smart and riding the crest of a wave. Young, wired and hooked -- the
country's
online tribe is massive, and its members are itching to get their fix. For
e-commerce execs, this place looks like the mother lode, but there is
just one
hitch -- China has a notoriously fragmented banking system. There are
too many
ways to pay, from online game cards, debit cards, international debit cards,
local credit cards, bank wires, post wires, and last but not least, cash.

PalmSource acquisition finalized | CNET
PalmSource, which owns the rights to the Palm operating system, is now
in the
hands of Japan's Access, executives announced late Monday, starting a
new chapter
for the once struggling company. Finalization of the $324.3 million
transaction
means that PalmSource is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Access and will no
longer be a separate publicly traded company. PalmSource traded on the
Nasdaq
under the symbol PSRC.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
BlackBerry leaps forward | CNN Tech
his week, Cingular rolls out Research In Motion’s newest BlackBerry, the
8700c.
While its shape suggests a return to a more conventional design after the
venture into sleekness known as the 7100, the 8700 is actually a full-on
redesign of the BlackBerry’s innards. A few taps and scrolls and you notice
that there’s a fresh spring to the 8700’s step. For the most part,
that’s due
to the Intel XScale processor at the core of the new device.

FBI agents bust 'Botmaster' | CNN Tech

"bot nets," to damage systems and send massive amounts of spam across the
Internet was arrested on Thursday in what authorities called the first such
prosecution of its kind.

Grokster to stop distributing service | CNN Tech

Apple sells a million videos | CNN Tech

videos in under 20 days. iTunes, the most popular online music store, began
selling about 2,000 music videos and episodes of ABC's "Desperate
Housewives"
and "Lost" for $1.99 October 12. The debut coincided with the launch of
a new
generation of Apple's iPod digital music player that can play video on its
2.5-inch color screen.

ID theft -- beware the hype | CNN Tech
If some of the numbers being cited about identity theft are to be believed,
it's just a matter of time before some unseen cyber-hustler steals your
name,
empties your bank account and wrecks your financial reputation. You can
almost
hear the maniacal laughter. By some measures, one in five Americans has been
hit. Another common statistic is that 10 million people fall victim
every year.

could open systems up to denial-of-service and other kinds of attacks,
experts
have warned. Finnish researchers at the University of Oulu announced

Management Protocol, or ISAKMP. The technology is used in IPsec virtual
private
network and firewall products from a range of networking companies,

Bots may get cloak of encryption | CNET
In their quest to retain control over hijacked PCs, cybercriminals will add
encryption to their malicious software to avoid detection and removal, one
expert predicted Monday. In the near future, bots will include encryption to
hide their presence from security and network sniffing tools often used to
detect their presence, said Adam Meyers, an information assurance
engineer at
SRA International speaking at the Computer Security Institute conference
here.

Are you being served? IBM helps academic institutions meet service
economy changes | IBM
Some 50 years ago, computer science was a virtually unknown academic
discipline,
and according to a National Academies report, IBM played an influential
role in
changing that. Now, as information technology shifts increasingly towards a
service focus, it requires a complementary shift in academia, and IBM is at
the forefront again.

Innovation - It's not just for clients any more | IBM
At IBM, innovation is important not only for clients, but also for employees
and the world at large. Imagine, for example, if tens of thousands of
employees
could speak about issues that are important to them and their company,
in real
time, with top executives. That’s a tall order given different time zones,
space limitations, work demands and schedules. But IBM online "jams" used
technology to solve the problem.
