This week starts the biggest U.S. trade show of consumer electronics. CES is held every year in Las Vegas, which is kind of poetic given that it is the city of unrealized hopes and dreams. We will soon see how many vendors hit the mark and how many miss their target. I'm expecting to be disappointed...
In the ongoing argument about whether the government should pass laws to prohibit companies from tracking Internets users' browsing habits, one voice has been conspicuously absent -- the voice of actual Internet users. Both the government agencies and public advocacy groups that have been pushing fo...
Instead of looking back at 2010, I thought it would be fun this Christmas week to jump ahead in the Enderle Time machine and look back at 2020. It was an amazing year with new faces and old hitting the tech and political headlines. I'll close with my product of the week: the amazing and magical iPh...
I wasn't quite sure what to think when I first heard Time magazine had named Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg Person of the Year for 2010. As I've previously confessed, I have not joined the half a billion people who are making friends and playing virtual games on Facebook. I do realize, however, that any...
Another year is about over, and many of us are now given time to spend with our friends and families thinking back on the year that was and ahead to the year that will be. We have been and are defined by the choices we make, and often we can learn from the mistakes of others as well as their suc...
We've been hearing a lot lately from people who think it's time to start policing the Internet. Last week, the U.S. Congress began holding hearings to determine whether it should outlaw the practice of tracking Internet users' browsing habits. Meanwhile, the European Union started exploring the poss...
2011 is looking to be a relatively violent year when it comes to technology and technology companies. As I write this, there are folks calling the attacks by Wikileaks supporters a cyberwar, but I think it is more of a cyber-revolt, and the difference is important. That difference is highlighted by...
Like almost everyone -- including government and law enforcement officials on multiple continents -- I'm struggling to answer this question: Exactly who is Julian Assange? is Assange merely a journalist with an altruistic desire to uncover the truth about the actions of governments and large corpora...
Last week, both Google and Sony were talking trash numbers in competitive comments against Microsoft. Both did this when the SEC is having real problems with public companies and numbers, so I thought they were incredibly brave, given how incredibly fanciful their numbers were. I also want to take a...
It would be natural to assume that George W. Bush and Mark Zuckerberg have nothing in common. Bush, the 43rd president of the United States, is a Baby Boomer, while Zuckerberg, the founder and chief executive officer of Facebook, is a member of the millennial generation. Those facts alone suggest th...
In the latest WikiLeaks data dump, around a quarter-million confidential American diplomatic cables were published online. Among the tech-relevant secrets, the State Department tasked agents to collect DNA and other biometric information on foreigners of interest. Specifically, U.S. officials were t...
This has been an interesting month when it comes to tablets. Apple has pretty much owned the segment, but Samsung reports it shipped 600,000 of its Galaxy Tablets in the first month, which may mean it's a player. HP almost had a surprise winner in its Windows 7 Tablet, but it under-forecast demand.
With Black Friday fast approaching, I've been thinking a lot about how various forms of technology have become ingrained into our everyday lives. You may be wondering exactly what the busiest shopping day of the year has to do with the spread of new technology. That's a fair question. The answer -- ...
This Friday is Black Friday. Well, we could probably call November Black Friday month, since many of the retailers started their discounting efforts last week. There will be an incredible number of deals to be had, based on some of the leaked information from megavendors like Best Buy. I think tha...
Last week was an interesting week, with increasing coverage of the Oracle vs. SAP trial and word out that Larry Ellison had put a bounty out on HP's new CEO Leo Apotheker so his attorneys could chew him out on the stand for taking Larry's buddy's job. At the same time, Google gave its employees a w...
