<description>
<![CDATA[The Federal Trade Commission's Telemarketing Sales Rule puts consumers in charge of how they want to receive telemarketing communications. Beginning Sept. 1, 2009, Federal Trade Commission regulations will require that automated sales communications can only be delivered to recipients who have already provided their express written consent to receive them. Here, Knowledge Center contributor Mark Friedman explains how to create a successful preference and opt-in program for more targeted, effective marketing communications.<br/>   -  In
2008, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) adopted an amended
Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR) citing consumer protection against
unwanted marketing communications. As of Dec. 1, 2008, all prerecorded

<description>
<![CDATA[In the last year, Firefox has faced challengers in areas in which it was always comfortably ahead. However, with the release of Firefox 3.5, Mozilla has addressed many of the biggest problems of its Web browser. Most of the changes are under the hood, but the improvements are enough to make Firefox one of the most compelling browsers available, and enough to earn the new version an eWEEK Labs Analyst's Choice award.<br/>   -  By pretty much any measure, Mozillas Firefox browser has been a huge
success. Firefox is one of the most successful open-source applications of all
time, second only to the Apache Web server. And in just a few short years,
Firefox has been able to take significant market share away from Microsoft...]]></description>

<![CDATA[Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g, the latest upgrade of Oracle's middleware platform, includes tools that allow the enterprise to collaborate and trade information more effectively, while attempting to simplify the processes involved in development, IT governance and other areas.

latest platform rollout, Fusion Middleware 11g, embraces new elements such as
social networking, even as some of its features seem geared toward businesses

<![CDATA[Oracles newest middleware technology platform takes advantage of virtualization and other next-generation technologies being integrated into the enterprise, and includes new developer tools for easier application build. Oracle President Charles Phillips suggested that the companys goal is to offer a pre-fabricated environment that allows IT administrators a substantial degree of control over their networks without needing to cobble together enterprise IT architecture by improvisation.<br/>   -  WASHINGTON, D.C. – Oracle

<![CDATA[NEWS ANALYSIS: Ubuntu is the leader in the Linux environment and it's slowly making its way into the mainstream. But is it ready to tackle the enterprise? While there is no chance of Ubuntu overtaking Microsoft Windows' dominant market share or even making a dent compared to Apples Mac OS X, this open-source operating system can make a difference in the enterprise.<br/>   -  Linux is an enigma. It has a loyal following. It's a robust operating system. It's
free. It's superior to both Windows and Mac OS X on a variety of
fronts. And in recent years, it has become more user-friendly than ever
before. It's a fantastic operating system with a slew of distributions

<![CDATA[Opera Unite is essentially a Web server embedded within a browser. This has the potential to make the exchange of data on the Web more efficient, but any Web server carries with it security risk--especially one on end users' systems.<br/>   -  Opera recently announced a new technology that it is including as essentially an alpha within the beta of the Opera 10 browser.

<![CDATA[Announced as a major new way for people to use the Web, the Opera Unite alpha that is now part of the Opera 10 beta is essentially an embedded Web server within the browser. As such, it offers some intriguing possibilities for sharing content, services and applications directly between systems, as opposed to having to use cloud-based services. But the Unite alpha comes with many questions and potential problems, not the least of which is the security risk of installing a Web server on user PCs. Here's a look at some of the features and capabilities in Opera Unite.<br/>   -  ...]]></description>

<![CDATA[Open-source software allows a great deal of flexibility and configurability, and can help organizations avoid vendor lock-in, but it has to be the right open-source software. Open-source enterprise applications such as Zimbra that provide hosted, on-premises and independent options are the most attractive.<br/>   -  I recently pointed out that while Google's excellent messaging and calendar services are available at low or no cost, Microsoft's Exchange is, in some significant ways, more free than Gmail.
That's because while Gmail is an excellent application, it's shadowed somewhat by the specter of lock-in: th...]]></description>
