Even if this was right up my alley, here’s what I want. I want details first, preferably with pre-announcement access to the software if possible. Then I want a company representative who is capable of answering my questions to be easily available to me. I love it when all of that happens. If you send out a release with no embargo then I want as a blogger to be able to contact you by phone or IM at a moment’s notice to get answers to my questions. Other bloggers are going to regurgitate your press release in minutes, I want meat to write a real review with and I want it fast. If there is an embargo then just let me contact you on a reasonable time frame leading up to and shortly after that embargo.

  • A look at the future of the transistor from the Solid State Devices and Materials Conference (SSDM) October 30, 2009
    I’m writing this on the plane from Narita airport to Portland as I return from  giving the plenary talk at the Solid State Devices and Materials conference (SSDM), in Sendai Japan.  It is always exciting to visit these device conferences to see the myriad of new options that are being discussed for next generation transistors.   Before I get into the t […]

  • Day One - Web 2.0 Summit & Social Location in Day 2 October 21, 2009
    Fantastic first day and night in San Francisco for the 2009 Web 2.0 Summit. Intel sponsored last night’s reception in the courtyard at the Westin, right before Carly Fiorina almost declared that she was running for the California Senate. John Battelle tried to coax the answer out of her to no avail. Complete Video recap of Day One is here. Day 2 promis […]

  • The original 'rock stars' who defined innovation and integration October 20, 2009
    Today, a small team of engineers will be recognized at the Computer History Museum for designing the world’s first programmable microprocessor in 1971, a 4-bit parallel CPU with 2,300 transistors. That project, from a fledgling integrated memory manufacturer barely 3 years old, was a significant achievement that one can honestly say changed the world. […]

  • Documentary on Intel Xeon processor 'Nehalem Effect' is nonsense October 19, 2009
    I rarely write about topics with such vigour, but this latest video from a so-called documentary team is absolute and utter rubbish. There is no evidence whatsoever that the Intel Xeon 5500 processor can create the kind of data centre disruption witnessed in the documentary. In the spirit of openness, here is the video I am referring to: Here is the text tha […]

He met with Staci Palmer, director of Intel’s In-Vehicle Infotainment, Embedded and Communications Group, who talked about how computer technology can connect auto […]
