Palin E-mail Hacker - Anonymous Proxy Server not always Anonymous

October 1, 2008 by Jimson Lee

When I wrote about Proxy Servers in my November 2007 article on On-Demand Software or Software as a Service (SaaS): When Your Competition Blocks Your Web Access, I hope people didn’t really believe Anonymous Proxy Server were truly Anonymous.

Anonymous Proxy Servers were simply meant to be used to get around firewalls that limited access to […]

Jamcracker, Zoho in Partnership to Offer On-Demand Business Applications to Telecomm and Service Providers

September 20, 2008 by Jimson Lee

It’s hard to believe Jamcracker is still around. I used their services in 2001-2002 to outsource my Microsoft Exchange hosting services as well as iPass remote dialup for all my corporate laptop users.

When the dot com meltdown hit full speed by 2003, I was certain Jamcracker (among hundreds of other companies) would not survive. […]

Gmail Outage Raises Doubts About Cloud Computing

August 14, 2008 by Jimson Lee

Were YOU affected?

I was wondering what was going on when I kept hitting the F5 to refresh my email, and it kept saying “Unable to connect to server”.

I said, WTF? How can Goliath go down? My Exchange server is one thing, but my trusted Gmail?

How about all the SMB companies who converted to […]

IFS Announces Heightened User Experience for its CRM Solution

August 12, 2008 by Jimson Lee

“Heightened User Experience”… hmmm…

I don’t know if this title is meant to be an eye grabber, with implications of ecstasy or sex (or both!).

Of course, Information Technology can be dull and boring at times, and the headline did catch my eye, so this press release was worth mentioning.

The press release didn’t go too much in […]

Survey Shows CEOs Are Making Collaboration a Top Priority

July 23, 2008 by Jimson Lee

This article and research report is really a shameless plug for BusinessWeek and SAP, but I though it was worth pointing out.

Ever since EDP was renamed to DP, then MIS, IS, and now IT, we know that the business plan must be in line with the technology road map. There is a lot of […]
