Google Releases New, Consolidated BlackBerry App For Plain And Google Apps Gmail

The Gmail Blog's suggestion to give Gmail a whirl on Google's new Chrome browser (be sure to take our Chrome Poll) isn't the only interesting news to come out of the Gmail camp.

I'm going to stick to the terms of service, and not reveal anything that will spoil your Home experience, but I will share a few small aspects that have been noticeable from the start."

Google conquers the ad world one plain-text blurb at a time

Here we are in the spanking new offices of Google Canada. There's the flat-screen image of a rotating globe up on the wall of the reception area, appropriate for a company seeking near global domination. There's the predictable crayon box of Google colours scattered about, in both accessories and the Google logo itself. And there is a sign-in process for visitors that involves a touch-screen nondisclosure agreement certifying, in part, that I am not a citizen of Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan or Syria.

Wireless Investor: AT&T shines light on Centennial bargain amid the gloom

It has been as plain as day for over a month that a boatload of stocks are at buy one/get one free (share) prices — trading amazingly far below fair market value. It is also common knowledge that the small mobile carrier stocks are in their third act, just waiting and/or angling for a takeover.

Authenticate Linux Clients with Active Directory (Technet)

"1. Samba joins AD as a regular host.

I have done this, and it works, but the samba way is easier.

"Bit" is a contraction of "binary digit," but unlike a classical bit, which is plain-vanilla binary with a value of either 0 or 1, a quantum bit, or qubit -- the theoretical basis of quantum computing -- holds both 0 and 1 in a superposed state until it is measured.

Maharashtra, Delhi, AP top e-commerce activity (and other curious facts): eBay India report

Online auction platform eBay, Inc is a popular platform for digging out consumer e-commerce trends that range from interesting to just plain weird.

Age-old indigenous credit schemes have run perfectly well without much outside intervention for generations. Although, in our excitement to implement new technologies and solutions, we sometimes fail to recognize them. Innovations such as mobile banking -- great as they may be -- are hailed as revolutionary without much consideration for what may have come before or who the original innovators may have been.
