Massucci's Take: AT&T's lawsuit against Verizon draws attention to its own flaws
AT&T (T) is suing Verizon Wireless for misleading advertising. But its actions could do the company more harm than good. The reason for the lawsuit: Verizon (VZ) has been mocking Apple's (AAPL) iPhone "There's an App for That" ads which show off a coverage map depicting its larger, third-generation (3G) wireless coverage next to AT&T's smaller 3G coverage map. In its advertisements Verizon quips: "There's a Map for That."That may irk AT&T, but the company does not dispute Verizon's larger...
Mobile search: Here's why Apple may take on Google
The search engine market is likely to get much hotter in the coming year if Apple (AAPL) adds a mobile search engine as the default option on its popular iPhones. Apple has no choice but to enter that game. The Cupertino, Calif. company has been giving (GOOG) a tremendous branding and revenue opportunity -- free of charge -- by incorporating Google Search as the default option in Safari browsers, the only browsers on iPhones. That the two titans are going to clash, big time, is a foregone conclusion. There have been some warning signs. Google...

How Google's CEO Eric Schmidt keeps the company on the righteous path
Google (GOOG) CEO Eric Schmidt spoke at MIT this afternoon. He had some interesting things to say about the company's place in the world -- and how Google can continue to follow its golden rule, "Don't be evil."
Schmidt came to MIT to honor the memory of one of my MIT professors, Dr. Michael Hammer, who, as I wrote earlier, tragically passed away about 14 months ago. Hammer was most famous for co-authoring Reengineering the Corporation, along with my former boss, James A. Champy. But Hammer received tenure as a computer science professor at MIT...
Would you 'worship' at an online church?
Do you remember before computers churchgoers got up, got dressed and walked or drove to their local church for a live performance by Pastor XYZ, prayed as a congregation, received the Pastor's in person blessing and returned home?
With the advent of computers, the world has changed. People use computers to shop online, get their news, express their opinions and search the world for information about almost anything we can imagine.
Now churches are using the computer to provide church services with all of the components of a regular church service, expect for person to person interaction. These sites are interactive and even provide music as well as live pod casts.
Social media at work: not just a yes/no question any more
Company attitudes toward social media sites vary. Some swing the doors wide open, allowing employees to tend to their Facebook farms and update Twitter statuses throughout the day. Others lock 'em down, keeping non-business site access to a minimum.
A recent study found that, in the United States, 77% of employees with Facebook accounts check in with the community from the office. And, the amount of time they're spending in this part of the online world is growing. In the United Kingdom, another study...
Chrysler to sell new Fiat designs under Dodge nameplate

The beleaguered automaker also said its finances are improving, reporting it broke even in September and had $5.7 billion in cash on hand. That's up from $4 billion in June, the month in which the company exited bankruptcy protection following a deal with Fiat (FIATY) which gave the Italian automaker a controlling stake in Chrysler.The three new cars...
Sushi salvation: Startup sees future of fish farms in giant Kevlar spheres
That luscious ahi tuna roll you chowed down on at your local sushi joint? It's the same as eating an endangered Siberian tiger. Well, not quite. But scientists are increasingly worried that ahi, the blood-red belle of the raw-fish ball, is being quickly fished to extinction courtesy of the never-ending quest for superior sushi. But now, a small startup in Hawaii has an ambitious goal to save the ahi. Its secret weapon? A giant, self-powered, Kevlar-coated ball that could prove a perfect way to raise tuna in captivity and supply discerning fish fiends with their piscine fix without further depleting wild stocks.
New York's Cuomo goes after Intel in a major antitrust suit
