Each Friday, we present a short list of the hottest whitepapers, webcasts and research available. Information you can use to solve problems that crept up during the week, and to prepare for the challenges you'll face in the days ahead. We also provide links to news stories you might have missed, plus facts, quotes and other forms of brain-candy. (Hint: The fun stuff is near the bottom, so don't forget to scroll.) Have a great weekend!
