More choice from cloud computing applications | Telecoms & Technology AN INCREASING number of cloud applications and services are trickling into the market, in many cases from non-traditional IT players. Andy Brauer, chief technology officer at Business Connexion, says the likes of Google and Amazon provide tools that enable information to be extracted from social networking sites about what customers are saying about their products and services and blend it with business intelligence they are gathering from their internal systems. He says technology is becoming available that can interrogate the content of video footage, which was not previously possible, and YouTube provides this functionality. "Companies need to be able to do this to manage video content, and locate and retrieve specific content, such as to include in a presentation." Rudie Raath, chief technologist at HP’s enterprise group, says cloud service provider Jamcracker pulls applications from multiple cloud providers into one catalogue and refers to itself as service broker enabler.

Flipboard launches custom curation tools, wants to unleash your inner magazine editor Flipboard has carved out a niche as one of the leading news and content-consumption apps for mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, with its digital-magazine look and easy user interface. Now the company wants to turn all of those content consumers into publishers as well: a new version of the app will be released today that gives users the tools to create their own topic-specific magazines.

Reddit: A Beginner's Guide Update: This post was updated October 2013 to reflect current statistics and tools. To the uninitiated, Reddit looks like a mess — text links, comment threads, points, upvotes, downvotes. At best, posts seem contextless — at worst, totally random. But spend some quality time with "The Front Page of the Internet," and you'll find it's an essential resource, a self-correcting marketplace of ideas that's nearly impervious to marketers. Simply put, Reddit is a message board wherein users submit links. This type of voting system was popularized by Digg, which launched in late 2004. If you're ready to tap in but not sure where to start, check out our overview below. Live the Reddit Culture If Facebook is your hometown, think of Reddit as a foreign country. That's OK.
