Sync your iTunes libraries

iTunes can easily share its content over your local network. But if you want a complete copy of your media library on more than one Mac, you’ll need to synchronize some files. However, merely copying, say, a folder full of AAC files from one Mac to another is not enough; you must also copy the iTunes Library files containing metadata, playlists, and other important information. And therein lies the rub: If you’ve changed the contents of iTunes on both Macs, merely copying the iTunes Library files in one direction or the other (manually or with a file-synchronization utility) won’t synchronize their contents, so neither iTunes library will be correct. For example, songs present on both Macs’ hard disks may not actually show up in iTunes on one Mac or the other, and one Mac’s playlists might entirely overwrite the other’s.

The Three Segments Of US Online Business Travelers

Forrester data shows that nearly one in three (29%) US online consumers recall traveling for business last year — that's roughly 48 million US online adults. Based on their employers' travel policies, these business travelers belong to one of three segments: 1) unmanaged travelers, who represent the majority of business travelers (57%); 2) lightly managed travelers, who make up 16% of business travelers; and 3) heavily managed travelers, who account for the remaining 27% of the business traveler population. The three segments of business travelers exhibit very different travel and booking behaviors and also vary in technology device ownership and spending habits.

Firefox Users Stay Ahead On the Update Curve

Reader Alex links to news of a study comparing the currency and patch level of various Web browsers, excerpting: "Firefox users were far and away the most likely to use the latest version, with an overwhelming 83.3 percent running an updated browser on any given day. However, despite Firefox's single click integrate auto-update functionality, 16.7 percent of Firefox users still continue to access the Web with an outdated version of the browser, researchers said.

Meanwhile, Microsoft's Internet Explorer users ranked last in terms of safe browsing.

Five Ways for Windows Users to Test Drive GNU/Linux

However, eager to recruit friends and family (if only to avoid tech-support on Windows), over the years the free and open source software (FOSS) community has developed a number of ways for Windows users to try GNU/Linux without turning their backs on Windows altogether.

KDE 4 problems highlight shift from community users to consumers

The reasons for the user revolt against KDE 4, which we reported on yesterday, are still being sorted out. They appear to be a complex mixture that includes the assumptions that KDE used in its planning, the rush by distributions to include a release that was not ready for general use, and sensationalism in free software blogs and journalism. One reason that has yet to be discussed is one of the potentially most significant -- the apparent shift in the FOSS user base. Judging from the quickness and thoroughness with which KDE 4 was rejected, the audience for free software seems to have shifted from a small group of knowledgeable users that treasures innovation to a larger one that values convention and familiarity and is actively suspicious of change.
