| Industry Standard | 54 | Bernhard Warner | Nike has been quietly making plans to launch an
online store to sell its footwear and apparel. Niketown.com, as the site will
probably be called, could be open as soon as next month, say sources close to the project.
It's a move that could change the shoe business. Ed. - Wonder if they could change those "Be like Mike" ads to "Be like Bill" ads? |
| InfoWorld | 8 | Paula Jacobs | Career success may depend as much on how others
perceive you as on your abilities. Hard to believe? Then look around your
organization to see who is climbing the career ladder and why. Hard work,
technical skills, and education are all important. But experts agree that your reputation
counts just as much. So whether you are striving for a promotion or simply want to be
heard at meetings, you may want to try beefing up your public relations efforts
instead of signing up for another technical seminar. Ed. - That's all fine and dandy, but there still is no substitute for hard work and competency. |
| The Institute (IEEE) | 70 | Annette Codispoti President-Elect Bruce Eisenstein Plans a Year of Distinction |
The year is 1999 and the significance of that number is enormous. The pressure is on to take the IEEE into a new century so members will look back with pride, a sense of accomplishment and hope for the future. "Everything the IEEE does in the year 2000 has to be distinctive," said Bruce Eisenstein, 1999 IEEE president-elect. |
| Intelligent Enterprise | 95 | Robin Bloor | Finally emerging from the Y2K shadow, the euro
conversion has thrown its own twist of uncertainty on the future of business
dealings. The euro could hit your business with currency fraud and
confuse transactions between companies adopting the euro and those passing it up. To
navigate your way through the maze, you need to know which software companies can
help you, how to handle triangulation, and how to get past the Y2K glitch. Just
knowing your market and offering top-tier customer relations won't be enough to run a
profitable global business in the next century. Ed. - Because of the length of the transition period and the ensuing implications, euro conversion may be more devastating to many businesses. |
| Inter@ctive Week | 18 | George Vernadakis | Like many wired-at-home commuters, the
author has, on occasion, had the luxury of "phoning it in." When, for instance,
the weather outside is frightful and the bulk of the work at hand can be attended to with
a little telecommuting sleight of hand, then why not turn your home into a home office for
a day? If you've never done the virtual office thing, then let Vernadakis
introduce you to the three major advantages and disadvantages. Ed. - Perhaps telecommuting is best for people on the two extremes. The boisterous office types whose antics often land them in trouble and the anti-social type, who would be much more productive if they didn't have to worry about the stress of interacting with co-workers. |
| Internet Shopper | 80 | Beth Cox | Shopping for a new car? Don't go near a showroom until you've done your homework -- online, of course. There are literally dozens of sites that allow virtual tire-kicking and offer help with getting a price quote on everything from a Geo Metro to a Lamborghini Countach. These sites have a good deal in common. Not only do they offer common-sense advice for consumers, but almost all of these virtual showrooms also offer the tools you need to heed that advice. |
| Internet Week | 53 | John Berry | On paper, moving from CIO to CEO is as easy
as changing the middle vowel. In practice, career advancement into the elite chamber of
top-level management is much more elusive. As information technology evolved from a
support function to perhaps the most strategic asset of a company, many
expected the steward of the corporation's digital assets-the chief information officer-to
be on the fast track into chief executive officer ranks. In fact, that's
rarely the case. Ed. - As businesses become more strategic about how they handle information, we believe more CIOs will be ready to make the transition. |
| Internet World | 26 | David F. Carr | The feature list for Netscape Enterprise Server 3.6 is less remarkable than the list of sites that are upgrading. Many large sites, including Netscape's own Netcenter, sat out the last several releases. But Netscape says E*Trade, Digex, Excite, and Lycos are among other large companies that will upgrade. |

| Java Pro | 83 | Claude Duguay | Although the Java 2 Collections API provides a number of useful data structures and algorithms, it provides only one static method for sorting data in the Collections class. This article will show you how to extend the basic API with a SortFactory, providing a sorting algorithm for use with any of the sortable collections. |
| JavaWorld | 12 | Daniel H. Steinberg | To be an attractive option for running Java applications and applets, the Macintosh platform must have a good Java virtual machine as well as fast and reliable hardware. In his keynote for the Macworld Expo in San Francisco during the first week in January, Steve Jobs highlighted the platform's new hardware offerings. Overall, there was little explicit news about Java on the Mac, but JavaWorld's Daniel Steinberg did uncover several small but juicy nuggets. |

| Linux Journal | 32 | David Phillips | Csound is a music composition and sound programming language originally written by Barry Vercoe at MIT. One of MusicV's major innovations was the implementation of the unit generator, a "black box" concept that allowed great extensibility to the language. The article goes on to discusses some history as well as what's happening now in the Linux Csound world. |
| Linux Today | 88 | Dave Whitinger | Last May, in his keynote speech to a crowd of over 1,000 at the 1998
LinuxExpo in Durham, NC, Linus Torvalds told the world that he expected
kernel 2.2.0 to be released "real soon now" -- in June or July 1998. Eight
months later, after an incredible amount of further development and testing, we finally
have our new kernel. In this article, Linux Today examines the 2.2.0 kernel
and attempts to address some of the more common questions that users are likely to ask
about it. Ed. - Browsing around this site and other Linux related sites, you can really see a sense of community. |

| MacAddict | 23 | Got SCSI If You Want It | Concerned that you can't find a good value SCSI card for your new G3 system? Adaptec is pleased to announce that the new Mac driver for the SCSI Card 2906 is now available from the Adaptec web site. Best of all, this is the final release driver -- the same version being released into production. |
| MacCentral | 25 | Apple Settles FTC Charges | Apple has settled charges with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission of
deceptive advertising, and has agreed to provide customers free access to technical
support. According to a Reuters story, Apple has agreed to reinstate a promise it made in an advertising campaign that it would give live, free technical support to customers under the so-called "Apple Assurance" program for as long as they own their Apple product. |
| MacOSRumors | 42 | Ryan Meader | (Both reported consumer portable prototypes) sported eMate-like plastics
and an extremely rugged case designed to take even the hardest shocks.
Like the eMate, this machine was pushed as the perfect computer for schools
looking to equip their students with a virtually invincible, low-cost,
high-performance portable.

| MacWeek | 5 | Robert Morgan | Apple amended its articles of incorporation to require its board members
to stand for annual reelection. In other words, Apple will have a yearly opportunity to
fire board members just by having a majority of the board to vote not to put a board
member's name up for reelection. The move also allows Apple to add or delete board members
almost at will. My stance: This is a good thing. The new rules will let Apple fire board
members who prove less than cooperative. Ed. - Utilizing the lightning-fast technology of 400 MHz G3 processors, Apple's newest offerings are pure power aimed at reclaiming some lost market share. |
| Macworld | 10 | Jason Snell | When Adobe PageMill debuted, it was the first of its kind: a program that let you edit Web pages "without knowing HTML" via a word processor-style interface. But in the two years since Adobe Systems released the last Mac version of PageMill, the Web has changed remarkably. With version 3.0, Adobe adds a few new features to put the Mac version in parity with PageMill 3.0 for Windows. However, it's clear that time has passed PageMill by. |
| Maximum PC | 98 | Light for Syquest Users | A light at the end of the tunnel has finally appeared for SyQuest
customers. Maximum PC's Watchdog has learned SyQuest plans to repair and return drives it
had in for warranty work when it shut its doors three months ago. Ed. - For anyone who bought SyQuest because of a great rebate offer? Your check is in the mail. |
| Microprocessor Report | 57 | Keith Diefendorff | After more than a decade of efforts to extract instruction-level parallelism, ILP doesn't appear to be the panacea that was once envisioned. Companies have poured many millions of transistors into wide instruction-issue mechanisms and large instruction-reordering windows. What do they have to show for all this complexity? Precious little. |
