Nick Carr’s ‘IT Doesn’t Matter’ still matters
May 20, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Ten years ago, Nick Carr said IT doesn’t matter — sort of.The jarring headline of Carr’s May 2003 article, “IT Doesn’t Matter,” is what many people remember, and it tends to overshadow his more thought-provoking thesis: that companies have overestimated the strategic value of IT, which is becoming ubiquitous and therefore diminishing as a source of competitive differentiation.”The opportunities for gaining IT-based advantages are already dwindling,” Carr wrote in the Harvard Business Review article. “Best practices are now quickly built into software or otherwise replicated. And as for IT-spurred industry transformations, most of the ones that are going to happen have likely already happened or are in the process of happening.”

White Nexus 4 spotted in the wild once again, still no sign of wider release
May 13, 2013 by Leave a Comment
… And it still looks like a Nexus 4 in white
Remember that white Nexus 4 that cropped up in Vietnam a few months back? Well it's back, this time in the Philippines. Google+ user Ervin Sue has posted photos of the white-backed Nexus 4 which he says he bought from "a local buy and sell site." Like the white Nexus 4 we've seen in earlier leaks, this one has a white Crystal Reflective Process back and white sides, but a black trim around the display.
There's also no indication that this is anything other than an isolated appearance for the elusive white Nexus, which was rumored to have been given to some Google employees last year. It's not impossible that Google might opt for a more widespread launch in this color, especially if a new N4 variant is to be unveiled at Google I/O, but there's nothing here to suggest that'll happen. So for the moment we'll have to make do with a few slightly blurry pics.
You'll find a couple more photos over at the source link.
