China behind cyber attack on 30 plus U.S. companies?
We're putting together a lunch and learn type deal at our corporate offices in Utah with Google's first patent attorney and the one who took them to China. It'll be a pretty informal deal, but should…

A partner of ours has just launched a site centered around strategic social media. Interesting stuff, and I thought that the community might find it beneficial. http://www.arnoldit2.com/

Not saying I agree with this article, but it is interesting. Google; for the megalithic presence they are, has failed in all of their attempts to capture significant market share in the social media…

Interestingly enough, Microsoft has no problem with 'helping' China continue censoring search results.
Right.. IMO it's just really 'good business' for Microsoft, at the expense of Internet freedom.
Google ‘99.9 Percent’ Sure to Shut Down in China
Interesting.. which means China will have a lot of unhappy & deprived Internet citizens.. which means China could be on a brink of an internal information renaissance.
Monica, Sounds like a very interesting project there on Moloka'i. I've been interested in retro fit lighting, but have never heard about it being doing in a community as you're describing. Are you working at all with Ed Reinhardt and Maui Electric o…

Looks like the hackers actually stole source code from some top US companies including Google by attacking the Perforce repositories. They even think that the hackers checked in code that could later help them spy on said companies. Seems like a pre…

Chinese scientific community expressed their opinion about Google stance. Here are some of the things they had to say:
A Nature News survey of Chinese scientists found that 84 percent of them thought losing access to Google would “somewhat or signi…

NPR on a mobile device does the trick for me :)
I've blocked virtually every app on facebook my "friends" there use. I'm starting to wonder if there will be some backlash against their current blatant efforts to keep you on their site via so-called "active engagement". Personally I find it obnoxi…

So what's your opinion, what's the next popular social site? I like twitter, but to me, it's a novelty now and will probably be an effective medium for automated notifications in the future... facebook is great, but only for friends/family.
Nice article. She's by no means got an easy job. The challenges are many, and it's certainly not an easy task to get people to the table to talk, set goals, and work together, and an even more difficult task to push the day to day grind type items t…
I've pretty much given up my social life both virtually and physically as I'm pretty immersed in work and trying to learn some new technology, but I agree with Konstantin regarding facebook. I've thought many times that I might just want to delete m…

- About Me:
- I work doing Business Development with Perfect Search Corporation. I love what I do, and currently reside in Salt Lake City Utah, but with roots and ties back to just about every island in the chain, I'm always looking for ways to get back home. I believe that Perfect Search has a unique search technology, and that that it might have special application for entities with large databases specifically in Hawai'i. I'm interested in staying in the loop with Hawai'i based tech companies, and would be interested also in talking with any large entities in the state with search related issues. On a personal note, I play ki ho'alu, sing Hawaiian music, am active in our local Hawaiian community here, and love to cook good local food.

Yes, I work with SharePoint. There's a SharePoint User group in Hawaii and I help lead the Hawaii Dot Net Users group. Let me know if you need anything else.
Happy New Year,

re: Wanting to get a better feel for tech businesses and climate in Hawai'i.
You may want to post this in the form of a question in the Doing Business in Hawaii forum.
