Google Moves Its Corporate Applications to the Internet - The CIO Report - WSJ
by awatila＠yahoo.co.uk 14 May '15

14 May '15

Good evening, Many organizations especially government ones have been allergic to cloud based systems. Have a look at the below link that gives justification for cloud based systems http://blogs.wsj.com/cio/2015/05/11/google-moves-its-corporate-applications… "The new model — called the BeyondCorp initiative — assumes that the internal network is as dangerous as the Internet. Access depends on the employee’s device and user credentials. Using authentication, authorization and encryption, the model grants employees fine-grained access to different enterprise resources" Best Regards, Alex Watila

Facebook Opens Internet.org to All Developers [Net Neutrality]
by Mose Karanja 05 May '15

05 May '15

Listers, Facebook is turning internet.org into an open platform to all devs. Three principles however have to be upheld: 1. Services should encourage the exploration of the broader internet wherever possible 2. Websites that require high-bandwidth will not be included. Services should not use VoIP, video, file transfer, high resolution photos, or high volume of photos. 3. Websites must be built to be optimized for browsing on both feature and smartphones and in limited bandwidth scenarios.
