10 IDG: Crowdfunding: Clouds, Crowds, and Collaboration
You've had a great idea for a business, but you don?t have the
money to get it off the ground. Would you consider crowdfunding?
According to Rolling Stone, 'Kickstarter funds the future', but is it
really good for innovation? What about enterprise? And just what risks
are involved? This week we look at crowdfunding with an exclusive
interview with a start-up that used a Kickstarter campaign to find the
ideal customers, a paper on outsourcing to the crowd for enterprise,
and a report on the vulnerabilities to watch out for.

from behind their desks and computers, the devices have also created a

D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department, about 40 percent of the
robberies*** in big cities involve the theft of smartphones.

12 How to sync your iPhone and iPad using iTunes

doesn't need to use advice like this. But think about it. Don't you
have some members that need help with what you might consider a basic
part of the Apple/Mac/iOS world?

---------------------------------------------------------
13 What's with fake "free" apps???
UGN Infomanager reader Tom C, wrote to complain -- it seems a
couple of weeks ago we ran a piece on a new YouTube downloaded /
decoder. As it turns out, it was a limited time demo as opposed to the
full working version the rep had indicated -- and it told Tom he'd
have to pay up. Obviously this ain't cool for Tom or UGNN, so we're
about finding a new decoding program that runs under Mountain Lion, is
very low cost or free, and is easily available. Sorry Tom, we'll be
more careful next time.
We always welcome your comments and suggestions . . . .

15 And finally, we say goodbye to "H"
DJ Walker-Morgan has announced the closing and final article in
the H web site. He writes :
> Although The H has produced many widely read stories,
> it has not been possible to effectively monetise
> that traffic to produce a working business model.
To many developers and hackers, the H was a daily read. And, we send
thanks to George H for sending this in

16 Quotes: About Winning
I would rather lose in a cause that will some day win,
than win in a cause that will some day lose.
--Woodrow Wilson
Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can
reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with
the extra ounce of power it takes to win
when the match is even.
-- Muhammad Ali
Remember, nobody wins unless everybody wins.
-- Bruce Springsteen
