NETFLASH: BREAKING NEWS FROM NETWORKWORLD.COM
By Jeff Caruso
Networks congested but unharmed after London explosions

phone networks - and particularly mobile phone networks - have
been jammed with worried callers. But the actual infrastructure
appears to be undamaged.

Weblog: When IE is the right choice
IT Borderlands is our newest Weblog, written by Ken Fasimpur, IT
coordinator at a midsize company. IT never gets a break, he

her Web browser stopped working. He thinks about installing a

Explorer. Read why at:
