The Commoditization of Massive Data Analysis - O'Reilly Radar

Excellent piece by Joseph Hellerstein, comparing the traditional, enterprise favoured, database (SQL based, Relational Databases) and the online favoured datastore (MapReduce and Hadoop). Thanks to Glenn Brunnette for the link.

Sun Academic Initiative (SAI)

Sun's SAI page; a great way for Eduction facilities to adopt Sun training. Includes (1) Free access to Sun's extensive portfolio of Web-based courses, (2) free Web-based ePractice Certification Exams, (3) discounts for Certification Exams, and, my favorite, (4) selection of free Instructor Led Training (ILT) courses.

Watch 3 spoof of T-Mobile ad | Media | guardian.co.uk

Telco ad wars in the UK; specifically the "can't find more minutes for £30" from T-Mobile which was successfully refuted by 3, who then went on to make this parody of the original T-Mobile ad. This is in such poor taste it's funny.
