This post is a follow-on to my previous report on the 21 April 2009 Xeon 5500 kickoff event hosted by Intel corporation (see: Intel's New Chip ).

Is Your CTO Making You Stupid?
September 17, 2008 By BobGourley
Nicholas Carr writes in ways that makes people think. I really enjoyed reading his latest in the Atlantic titled "Is Google Making Us Stupid?" This article covers some rather significant trends that IT is pushing into the global social fabric. The changes he talks about are disturbing.

May 3, 2008 By BobGourley
Intel's Pat Gelsinger, a guy in a position to know and help drive Intel's technology roadmap (he is Intel's Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and SVP) spoke recently at the Intel Developers Forum where he gave a presentation called "From Petaflops to Milliwatts." In that presentation he described something we should all be glad to know, he believes Moore's Law will continue to hold good through 2029 (as I'm sure most readers here know, Moore's Law comes … [Read more...]
