I've been meaning to write a post about open-source software in defense for a while and today my inbox achieved critical mass with the arrival of yesterday's GCN article on the subject. The article previews a memo being prepared by the Defense Department's CIO that should be released in early November. It will provide additional guidance on the use of open source software in defense and is meant to make it easier for the government to obtain the benefits that come with open source.

When I started writing for Inside iPhone, I promised that I'd talk about why iPhone web apps are still important. I decided to make good on that threat this week. One of the reasons that I think it's necessary to build websites that are iPhone-friendly is that lots of people will surf to your website before thinking of picking up your free app in the App Store. Do you want those people to have the somewhat-degraded user experience that comes from using a version of your website that's intended for a desktop or notebook computer?
Upcoming workshops will be held in both Washington, DC and Dallas/Ft. Worth.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that media is changing the way books are viewed. In fact, video - and YouTube in particular - has already changed how books are sold. Most big fiction releases are heralded by short "book trailers" that give an almost movie-like feel to the contents of the book.
But in a recent article published by the Christian Science Monitor, I was surprised to see that there's an even more notable link between movies and the sale of books.

This is the language of non-obvious connection, where it's theoretically possible but impossible in practice to predict the future state. Listening to This American Life's new episode on the...
