March 17, 2009 (InfoWorld)
Economic conditions may be even worse than they appear, and that spells significant changes for IT.
...
IT shops simply cannot afford to ignore the world at large, so CIOs are likely to keep purse strings tight for months to come, and as a result, there will undoubtedly be long-lasting changes.
....
The fundamentals of the economy have changed. With so much financial pressure, IT shops are being forced to make moves that optimize costs much more quickly than they would in an economic boom. Cloud computing, consolidation and virtualization were already gaining steam, and the recession will kick their adoption into high gear, analysts agreed.
...
IDC projects that IT spending on cloud computing will reach $42 billion by 2012, with cost savings as the primary driver. Gartner predicts that 10% of servers will be virtual by year's end, and that number will skyrocket to 60% by 2013.
...
Small and midsize data centers won't exist very long as companies take a look at why they're managing data centers themselves
...
"IT's job will be managing availability and making sure users have access to what they need and can't get to what they're not supposed to see." Despite the vagueness of the term, Web 2.0 does involve communication and collaboration technologies that are transforming both expectations of information sharing and forcing a rethink of how and to what extent information can and should be managed.

Megvan a "Cyber Czar" ?!

March 05, 2009 — Computerworld — President Barack Obama Thursday appointed the District of Columbia's chief technology officer, Vivek Kundra, as the federal government's first CIO. The decision to appoint a CIO is an apparent move by the White House to give it more control over the US$80 billion that federal agencies spend annually on technology.
Obama still plans to name a chief technology officer, an appointment he announced early in his campaign for office, but the selection of a CIO was something of surprise and possibly a recognition by the new administration that the CTO won't have enough authority, alone, to shape federal technology spending.
