Internet Siege Becomes Weaponized

Elazon™ the world’s only Electronic Message Response and Remediation System, mitigates all forms of unwanted electronic messages and behavioral advertising and facilitates good computing for both consumers and businesses. Elazon™ reduces the profitability of sending unwanted electronic messages and placing hidden malicious code used as behavioral links. Based on current consumer preferences, the system could easily overwhelm the marketing ecosystem with automatic responses to unwanted messages.
Each individual user controls which messages they respond to, how they respond to them and when they respond to them. User response is in aggregate and in direct proportion to how many messages and or links have been received.
Everyday electronic marketers and behavioral advertisers send out billions of unwanted messages in the form of email, instant messages, and web hyper links that are at best ignored or captured in spam filters. At worst, these unwanted messages cause incalculable social and financial harm – this is about to change.

Cloud Computing – Cloud Spending Looking a Bit Fluffier: Gartner

After cutting its annual worldwide IT spending forecast back last quarter, Gartner tickled it again this quarter.
It pegs the “lackluster” number at $3.6 trillion, up 3% over last year’s $3.5 trillion, a half a percent better than it thought three months ago.
Despite the eurozone crisis, the weak US recovery and the slowdown in China, it figures the “outlook has at least stabilized” but warns that “there has been little change in either business confidence or consumer sentiment in the past quarter, so the short-term outlook is for continued caution in IT spending.”
