Freshworks president Dennis Woodside copes with stress by running as often as he can, a habit that began when he was CEO of Motorola Mobility. So far, he has run “16 to 17” Ironman triathlons. He's also continually challenging himself in his professional life, leaving Motorola in 2014 to advise the founder-CEOs: Dropbox's Drew Houston, Impossible Foods' Pat Brown, and now Freshworks' Girish Mathrubootham. Dennis' advice for anyone working with founders is to “have empathy” for what they're going through, and to understand what motivates them. Without that understanding, he says, you won't be able to arrive at a shared vision for the company.In this episode, Dennis and Joubin discuss mega-acquisitions, the smartphone paradigm shift, triathlons and competitiveness, winning every category, “softening up,” global cities, Google interview questions, spreading Silicon Valley culture, the “chrome panda moment,” hiring the right people, “Where do you want to be in five years?”, evaluating new opportunities, and building trust with founders.In this episode, we cover: Google's acquisition of Motorola and how Dennis went from ad exec to first-time CEO (02:00) Did Dennis like being the CEO of Motorola? (08:04) The stress of the new job and dealing with it through exercise (13:02) Dennis' impressive résumé and what dinner conversation was like growing up (18:37) Going to Korea and choosing the harder path (23:00) Joining Google in 2003 as a general problem-solver (26:23) Hiring “scouts” all around the world to better understand the internet (30:41) Leaving Motorola to mentor Dropbox CEO Drew Houston (39:12) Checking your ego and the listening tour that wasn't (42:20) Dropbox's IPO and why the stock has been relatively flat (48:38) Changing jobs without breaks, and spotting new opportunities like Freshworks (52:19) Tips for working with founders and interrogating the status quo (58:02) Dennis' most unique OKR at Dropbox (01:02:39) Links: Connect with DennisLinkedIn Connect with Joubin Twitter LinkedIn Email: grit@kleinerperkins.com  Learn more about Kleiner Perkins This episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

Richard Rushing, CISO at Motorola Mobility, brings his decades of experience to the show this week to talk about leadership, communication, and perhaps most importantly of all: prioritization. After joining Motorola through a startup acquisition, Richard has been a leader in the company and a defining example of what a CISO should be doing: simplifying the complicated. Richard talks about how his role has changed over the last 10 years and what's next for him and for cybersecurity.   Timecoded Guide: [00:00] Ascending into a leadership role in cybersecurity & joining the Motorola team [06:28] Defining CSO & CISO at a time when no one understood cybersecurity [13:01] Communicating with the C-suite about cyber: best practices & tenants [24:37] Harnessing a proactive cybersecurity mindset with prioritization [32:13] Extending your cybersecurity career for decades   Sponsor Links: Thank you to our sponsors Axonius and NetSPI for bringing this episode to life!

Richard jokes that he became a part of the cyber industry before the industry was even called cybersecurity, but behind the joke lies the truth that cyber looked extremely different back then. However, no matter how much time passes, Richard is still used to the odd confused looks that come from saying he's a CISO. People misunderstand the role, Richard explains, but at least more people than ever before understand the importance of cybersecurity. “There were a lot of other things that you had to talk about, you had to evangelize a lot coming into this [industry] because a lot of the cybersecurity industry was brand new. People were moving around and trying to figure these things out and everybody struggled.”   How many times would you say you feel like you've had a new job or a new role being in the same role for over 10 years?  Being a CISO has had its ups and downs during the 10 years Richard has spent in that role at Motorola, but the changes have been welcome and interesting. Every few years, the technology landscape changes, and with those changes in tech come massive changes in company ownership, leadership, and security. However, Richard is thankful that through these changes, his core team has stayed the same, giving him a trustworthy group to learn from. “It's always changing, but at the same time, there's some static components. When I came on to Motorola 15 years ago and established teams, most of my team, except for a very small portion of people that retired or left, are still with me today.”   What are your thoughts and best practices for proactive cybersecurity? Although “proactive cybersecurity” has become a buzzword we're all paying attention to, Richard warns that most companies aren't really being proactive with cybersecurity just yet. Instead, what the industry has shifted towards is prioritization. Understanding what's important, prioritizing those aspects of a business, and knowing what you don't have the resources to handle can make the security work you're doing feel more proactive.  “Why do I need to prioritize? Because you're getting more alerts than you have people to be able to handle it, or technologies to be able to handle it in an automated way. So, you have to prioritize what's important.”    What would you recommend people consider to extend their cybersecurity career life as long as you have? After nearly four decades in the industry and over ten years at Motorola, Richard has been in cybersecurity longer than most modern-day practitioners. When asked about his secrets for an extended cybersecurity career, Richard reflects back on his advice around prioritization over “proactive cybersecurity”, and emphasizes the importance of community. Cybersecurity is a collaborative field, and practitioners have to stay open to learning together to succeed.  “In the cybersecurity world, we will talk to our competitors and share what we're seeing. I think that community effort is one of the key things. You have to enjoy what you're doing, reach out and be collaborative with people. Don't be the security guy that people are scared of.” --------------- Links: Keep up with our guest Richard Rushing on LinkedIn and Twitter Learn more about Motorola Mobility on LinkedIn and the Motorola website Connect with Ron Eddings on LinkedIn and Twitter Connect with Chris Cochran on LinkedIn and Twitter Purchase an HVS t-shirt at our shop Continue the conversation by joining our Discord Check out Hacker Valley Media and Hacker Valley Studio

Our homes are getting smarter! The more technology understands our unique needs and modes, the more it can make our lives easier and more meaningful. Today we are joined by Tanseela Molani, the Senior Manager of Experience Research at the Chamberlain Group, to discuss how experience insights are shaping the future of smart home technology.    In This Episode:    [1:14] What is experience research? [3:06] How Chamberlain Group is working to benefit their consumers in current times.   [5:30] Identifying consumer needs.  [7:28] How do consumer trust and convenience come into play when companies are designing new technologies and services? [19:45] Tech companies rely on consumer intelligence for innovation   [22:33] Connecting micro moments of our lives can drive technological advancements.   [33:40] How companies can measure customer experience return on investment (ROI).   [37:33] Final thoughts.     Key Takeaways:    Our needs and motivations change throughout the day, and smart products, technologies, and services should reflect those changes.   When we move from one “mode” to another, we are moving through a threshold, even if just for a moment.  These thresholds are the moments tech companies need to study to better understand customer needs.   As a consumer, companies providing a service or experience through smart technology need honest feedback.  This will allow them to upgrade and adapt their technology to further serve customers.   Strategists should focus on digging deeper into what drives behaviors, thoughts, trends.     Bio: Tanseela Molani   Tanseela Molani joined Chamberlain Group in 2017 as Sr. Manager, Experience Research. Prior to Chamberlain Group, she led the design research team at United Airlines and Motorola Mobility. During her tenure at these companies she drove meaningful growth by gaining a deep understanding of underlying customer needs and motivations, such as resetting the tone of the disrupted traveler notifications, to creating new mobile phone experiences when mobile phones were still a new technology. Professionally, nothing is more fulfilling for Tanseela than uncovering the motivational nugget that can lead to innovation, a better product or a new service.   Tanseela is a graduate of University of Calgary, where she majored in Industrial Design, with a sub-focus on design management. She resides in the Chicago metro with her husband. Outside of work, Tanseela enjoys a good TV binge, baking and working out.

  In 2020, they are celebrating their 70th birthday. World Vision International operates in most countries across the world and is a $3 billion organisation focused on ending violence against children in all its forms and supporting children, particularly in some of the most challenging countries, such as the DRC and Syria.   While World Vision is a Christian organisation, they serve those of all faiths and of no faith at all. They’re structured globally by setting up separate legal entities in the countries where they operate (such as World Vision South Africa) — these entities all agree to work in partnership with all the other World Vision entities around the world. They also work with delivery partners in local settings. Many of World Vision’s in-country team leaders come up from local communities, as opposed to being expats placed there from overseas.   Andrew sheds light on World Vision International’s funding.  Their primary funding is derived through their child sponsorship model.  This is a model that aims to develop communities — not just the individual child but also the communities where that child lives.    Since they are a $3 billion organisation, they are fortunate in having adequate resources to withstand a shock such as that posed by COVID-19. Part of the reason why their funding streams are robust is the strong link between sponsors and the children and communities where these children live.   We also hear of Andrew’s career trajectory. He started off in the private sector and only later on in life moved into the non-profit world. He was always selling things from an early stage in his childhood and, then, also as a teenager.  The idea of marketing was something he was passionate about. Then, at 30, he had a powerful coming to faith moment and felt a calling to become a Christian. His life turned around at that point. At the time he was working for Sky TV as sales and marketing director — he recalls how back then he was the youngest executive on their Management Board.     He stayed in the corporate world for 20 years, spending time at high profile organisations, such as Google and Motorola Mobility.  In 2017, he was ordained as an Anglican Vicar in St Paul’s Cathedral. Now, alongside his work at World Vision International, on Sunday mornings Andrew serves at a London church called Holy Trinity Brompton. He loves combining the two.   We hear how transitioning from the corporate world to the non-profit world is not that straight forward. The remuneration is much different and in the non-profit world everything is about excellence at a minimum cost, while in the corporate world it is about excellence at an acceptable cost. In the non-profit world, funding decisions often impact whether a child goes hungry or not. Andrew advises the audience: if you feel pulled towards the non-profit world, then go ahead and give it a try.   One of the major programmes at World Vision is focused on ending violence against children. Andrew notes how lockdown and COVID-19 have meant that children are at home more, and they’re away from the protective environment of school and are often not given access to the adults who might protect them. So, the risk of violence against children is exacerbated.   When asked what success for the next 10 years looks like to him, Andrew answers that he’d love to see an end of extreme poverty in all its forms by 2030. He’s optimistic and explains that despite the backwards steps in economic indicators due to COVID-19, what we’ve also learned from this pandemic is that when people come together and have a common goal that we can achieve lots.  He’d also like to see an end of violence against children in all its forms and have World Vision play its part in making that happen.    Andrew’s key takeaway: Think about how your life is having an impact on the world, and ask yourself what you want your legacy to be. Most of us want to have a legacy that makes the world better in some way, so think about how you can do that. Have the belief that you can make a difference.   Visit The Do One Better!

We are in strange and uncertain times. The technology industry has always managed to respond to strange and uncertain times with incredible innovations that lead to the next round of growth. Growth that often comes with much higher rewards and leaves the world in a state almost unimaginable in previous iterations. The last major inflection point for the Internet, and computing in general, was when the dot come bubble burst.  The companies that survived that time in the history of computing and stayed true to their course sparked the Web 2.0 revolution. And their shareholders were rewarded by going from exits and valuations in the millions in the dot com era, they went into the billions in the Web 2.0 era. None as iconic as Google. They finally solved how to make money at scale on the Internet and in the process validated that search was a place to do so. Today we can think of Google, or the resulting parent Alphabet, as a multi-headed hydra. The biggest of those heads includes Search, which includes AdWords and AdSense. But Google has long since stopped being a one-trick pony. They also include Google Apps, Google Cloud, Gmail, YouTube, Google Nest, Verily, self-driving cars, mobile operating systems, and one of the more ambitious, Google Fiber. But how did two kids going to Stanford manage to become the third US company to be valued at a trillion dollars? Let's go back to 1998. The Big Lebowski, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, There's Something About Mary, The Truman Show, and Saving Private Ryan were in the theaters. Puff Daddy hadn't transmogrified into P Diddy. And Usher had three songs in the Top 40. Boyz II Men, Backstreet Boys, Shania Twain, and Third Eye Blind couldn't be avoided on the airwaves. They're now pretty much relegated to 90s disco nights. But technology offered a bright spot. We got the first MP3 player, the Apple Newton, the Intel Celeron and Xeon, the Apple iMac, MySQL, v.90 Modems, StarCraft, and two Stanford students named Larry Page and Sergey Brin took a research project they started in 1996 with Scott Hassan, and started a company called Google (although Hassan would leave Google before it became a company).  There were search engines before Page and Brin. But most produced search results that just weren't that great. In fact, most were focused on becoming portals. They took their queue from AOL and other ISPs who had springboarded people onto the web from services that had been walled gardens. As they became interconnected into a truly open Internet, the amount of diverse content began to explode and people just getting online found it hard to actually find things they were interested in. Going from ISPs who had portals to getting on the Internet, many began using a starting page like Archie, LYCOS, Jughead, Veronica, Infoseek, and of course Yahoo! Yahoo! Had grown fast out of Stanford, having been founded by Jerry Yang and David Filo. By 1998, the Yahoo! Page was full of text. Stock tickers, links to shopping, and even horoscopes. It took a lot of the features from the community builders at AOL. The model to take money was banner ads and that meant keeping people on their pages. Because it wasn't yet monetized and in fact acted against the banner loading business model, searching for what you really wanted to find on the Internet didn't get a lot of love. The search engines or portals of the day had pretty crappy search engines compared to what Page and Brin were building.  They initially called the search engine BackRub back in 1996. As academics (and the children of academics) they knew that the more papers that sited another paper, the more valuable the paper was. Applying that same logic allowed them to rank websites based on how many other sites linked into it. This became the foundation of the original PageRank algorithm, which continues to evolve today. The name BackRub came from the concept of weighting based on back links. That concept had come from a tool called RankDex, which was developed by Robin Li who went on to found Baidu.  Keep in mind, it started as a research project. The transition from research project meant finding a good name. Being math nerds they landed on "Google" a play on "googol", or a 1 followed by a hundred zeros. And within a year they were still running off University of Stanford computers. As their crawlers searched the web they needed more and more computing time. So they went out looking for funding and in 1998 got $100,000 from Sun Microsystems cofounder Andy Bechtolsheim. Jeff Bezos from Amazon, David Cheriton, Ram Shriram and others kicked in some money as well and they got a million dollar round of angel investment. And their algorithm kept getting more and more mature as they were able to catalog more and more sites. By 1999 they went out and raised $25 million from Kleiner Perkins and Sequoia Capital, insisting the two invest equally, which hadn't been done.  They were frugal with their money, which allowed them to weather the coming storm when the dot com bubble burst. They build computers to process data using off the shelf hardware they got at Fry's and other computer stores, they brought in some of the best talent in the area as other companies were going bankrupt.  They also used that money to move into offices in Palo Alto and in 2000 started selling ads through a service they called AdWords. It was a simple site and ads were text instead of the banners popular at the time. It was an instant success and I remember being drawn to it after years of looking at that increasingly complicated Yahoo! Landing page. And they successfully inked a deal with Yahoo! to provide organic and paid search, betting the company that they could make lots of money. And they were right. The world was ready for simple interfaces that provided relevant results. And the results were relevant for advertisers who could move to a pay-per-click model and bid on how much they wanted to pay for each click. They could serve ads for nearly any company and with little human interaction because they spent the time and money to build great AI to power the system. You put in a credit card number and they got accurate projections on how successful an ad would be. In fact, ads that were relevant often charged less for clicks than those that weren't. And it quickly became apparent that they were just printing money on the back of the new ad system. They brought in Eric Schmidt to run the company, per the agreement they made when they raised the $25 million and by 2002 they were booking $400M in revenue. And they operated at a 60% margin. These are crazy numbers and enabled them to continue aggressively making investments. The dot com bubble may have burst, but Google was a clear beacon of light that the Internet wasn't done for. In 2003 Google moved into a space now referred to as the Googleplex, in Mountain View California. In a sign of the times, that was land formerly owned by Silicon Graphics. They saw how the ad model could improved beyond paid placement and banners and acquired  is when they launched AdSense. They could afford to with $1.5 billion in revenue.  Google went public in 2004, with revenues of $3.2 billion. Underwritten by Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse, who took half the standard fees for leading the IPO, Google sold nearly 20 million shares. By then they were basically printing money. By then the company had a market cap of $23 billion, just below that of Yahoo. That's the year they acquired Where 2 Technologies to convert their mapping technology into Google Maps, which was launched in 2005. They also bought Keyhole in 2004, which the CIA had invested in, and that was released as Google Earth in 2005. That technology then became critical for turn by turn directions and the directions were enriched using another 2004 acquisition, ZipDash, to get real-time traffic information. At this point, Google wasn't just responding to queries about content on the web, but were able to respond to queries about the world at large. They also released Gmail and Google Books in 2004. By the end of 2005 they were up to $6.1 billion in revenue and they continued to invest money back into the company aggressively, looking not only to point users to pages but get into content. That's when they bought Android in 2005, allowing them to answer queries using their own mobile operating system rather than just on the web. On the back of $10.6 billion in revenue they bought YouTube in 2006 for $1.65 billion in Google stock. This is also when they brought Gmail into Google Apps for Your Domain, now simply known as G Suite - and when they acquired Upstartle to get what we now call Google Docs.  At $16.6 billion in revenues, they bought DoubleClick in 2007 for $3.1 billion to get the relationships DoubleClick had with the ad agencies.  They also acquired Tonic Systems in 2007, which would become Google Slides. Thus completing a suite of apps that could compete with Microsoft Office. By then they were at $16.6 billion in revenues. The first Android release came in 2008 on the back of $21.8 billion revenue. They also released Chrome that year, a project that came out of hiring a number of Mozilla Firefox developers, even after Eric Schmidt had stonewalled doing so for six years. The project had been managed by up and coming Sundar Pichai. That year they also released Google App Engine, to compete with Amazon's EC2.  They bought On2, reCAPTCHA, AdMob, VOIP company Gizmo5, Teracent, and AppJet in 2009 on $23.7 Billion in revenue and Aardvark, reMail, Picnic, DocVerse, Episodic, Plink, Agnilux, LabPixies, BumpTop, Global IP Solutions, Simplify Media, Ruba.com, Invite Media, Metaweb, Zetawire, Instantiations, Slide.com, Jambool, Like.com, Angstro, SocialDeck, QuickSee, Plannr, BlindType, Phonetic Arts, and Widevine Technologies in 2010 on 29.3 billion in revenue. In 2011, Google bought Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion to get access to patents for mobile phones, along with another almost two dozen companies. This was on the back of nearly $38 billion in revenue.  The battle with Apple intensified when Apple removed Google Maps from iOS 6 in 2012. But on $50 billion in revenue, Google wasn't worried. They released the Chromebook in 2012 as well as announcing Google Fiber to be rolled out in Kansas City.  They launched Google Drive They bought Waze for just shy of a billion dollars in 2013 to get crowdsourced data that could help bolster what Google Maps was doing. That was on 55 and a half billion in revenue.  In 2014, at $65 billion in revenue, they bought Nest, getting thermostats and cameras in the portfolio.  Pichai, who had worked in product on Drive, Gmail, Maps, and Chromebook took over Android and by 2015 was named the next CEO of Google when Google restructured with Alphabet being created as the parent of the various companies that made up the portfolio. By then they were up to 74 and a half billion in revenue. And they needed a new structure, given the size and scale of what they were doing.  In 2016 they launched Google Home, which has now brought AI into 52 million homes. They also bought nearly 20 other companies that year, including Apigee, to get an API management platform. By then they were up to nearly $90 billion in revenue. 2017 saw revenues rise to $110 billion and 2018 saw them reach $136 billion.  In 2019, Pichai became the CEO of Alphabet, now presiding over a company with over $160 billion in revenues. One that has bought over 200 companies and employs over 123,000 humans. Google's mission is “to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful” and it's easy to connect most of the acquisitions with that goal. I have a lot of friends in and out of IT that think Google is evil. Despite their desire not to do evil, any organization that grows at such a mind-boggling pace is bound to rub people wrong here and there. I've always gladly using their free services even knowing that when you aren't paying for a product, you are the product. We have a lot to be thankful of Google for on this birthday. As Netscape was the symbol of the dot com era, they were the symbol of Web 2.0. They took the mantle for free mail from Hotmail after Microsoft screwed the pooch with that.  They applied math to everything, revolutionizing marketing and helping people connect with information they were most interested in. They cobbled together a mapping solution and changed the way we navigate through cities. They made Google Apps and evolved the way we use documents, making us more collaborative and forcing the competition, namely Microsoft Office to adapt as well. They dominated the mobility market, capturing over 90% of devices. They innovated cloud stacks. And here's the crazy thing, from the beginning, they didn't make up a lot. They borrowed the foundational principals of that original algorithm from RankDex, Gmail was a new and innovative approach to Hotmail, Google Maps was a better Encarta, their cloud offerings were structured similar to those of Amazon. And the list of acquisitions that helped them get patents or talent or ideas to launch innovative services is just astounding.  Chances are that today you do something that touches on Google. Whether it's the original search, controlling the lights in your house with Nest, using a web service hosted in their cloud, sending or receiving email through Gmail or one of the other hundreds of services. The team at Google has left an impact on each of the types of services they enable. They have innovated business and reaped the rewards. And on their 22nd birthday, we all owe them a certain level of thanks for everything they've given us. So until next time, think about all the services you interact with. And think about how you can improve on them. And thank you, for tuning in to this episode of the history of computing podcast.

This week’s episode of CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Podcast features me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series, and co-host Mike Johnson. Our guest is Yaron Levi (@0xL3v1), CISO, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City. Thanks to this week's podcast sponsor, DivvyCloud. DivvyCloud provides continuous security and compliance across all CSPs and containers, including AWS, GCP, Azure, Ailibaba, and Kubernetes, providing a comprehensive view of what’s in your cloud, along with the tools and automation you need to manage it today, tomorrow, and into the future as your business grows and changes. On this week's episode Hey, you’re a CISO. What’s your take on this? What's the value of a vendor-derived security meter? I sat down for a vendor presentation that was chock full of dashboards with meters. Some made sense and others appeared they were derived through some mysterious black box. When do you trust a vendor-derived meter? Can you? If not you, who are they for? Is it possible to ignore the absolute numbers in a vendor-derived formula and value only the changes over time? If you don't trust a vendor-derived meter, what meters do you create for yourself that you do trust? How do you go about discovering new security solutions? Tip of the hat to John Prokap, CISO, HarperCollins for forwarding me this excellent CIO.com article by Yoav Leitersdorf of YL Ventures. How feature rich should a startup product be? In the article, Richard Rushing, CISO, Motorola Mobility talks about the need to trust a startup and the quality of each feature. “It's not enough to just focus on three out of five. All five have to be spot on because I can't miss, which means you can't miss." How does a vendor avoid the classic case of trying to be everything to everybody and really you're serving no one? What's Worse? What's better for the business, compromised security occasionally, or unnecessary overhead that grows over time? Close your eyes and visualize the perfect engagement There's a well-known paradox in the healthcare industry when it comes to working with third party vendors. Because of HIPAA regulations there's a desire to keep information private, but at the same time, what about all these wonderful third party tools. Let them have access to our data. What's the advice for vendors eager to work with a healthcare organization? How should they demonstrate their awareness of this paradox (e.g., scope of responsibilities, efficacy of controls, attestation, accountability)? Why is everyone talking about this now? We recorded this episode on March 30th as we talk about this next topic and that is should companies challenge their employees with a COVID-19 phishing test? Tip of the hat to Louisa Vogelenzang of Kroll who pointed me to this active discussion started by Grant McKechnie, Telstra, who asked this very question. There was a lot of debate. We debate both sides and offer an ultimate recommendation.

Google owned Motorola Mobility for only 2 years before deciding to sell it off. They chose to sell to Lenovo for $2.91 billion. A major change in the $12.5 billion acquisition they made in 2011. But of course that was after Google striped the company down a little and sold items like their cable modem […]

Mobile HDTV Motorola Mobility, one time subsidiary of Google, now a part of Lenovo, just released a new app in the Google Play Store called, yep, you guessed it, Mobile HDTV.  The app enables select phones and portable devices, with the proper hardware, to watch live, over-the-air HDTV right on your Android device. The concept is pretty simple, and you'd think very compelling, but it turns out most people can't use it. The question is, why not?   According to the description of the app, “Digital HDTV brings the broadcast TV experience to mobile devices with HD quality, making the experience more personal and more universally available.” The app is both a tuner and a DVR, so it allows you to... “Watch TV while away from home: Digital HDTV brings the HD broadcast TV experience to the mobile device, with the additional support of the EPG (Electronic Program Guide) and Ginga, for user interactivity.” “Record the TV program that you like: You may record the program you are watching, so that you can see it again later, or share something you liked with others.” “Choose when to watch your favorite program: You may love a TV program but you may not necessarily be available to watch it when it plays. This feature gives you the ability to schedule it to be recorded, so that you can watch it later, when you like it.”   However, “This application has been designed to work on the Motorola models that support Mobile HDTV.” That's the catch. So how many Motorola devices support Mobile HDTV? Turns out we weren't able to find any for the US market that include the necessary hardware. Google and Amazon searches for devices with built-in DTV tuners came up empty. There are a handful of external DTV tuner/antennas at Amazon, but they're based on the now defunct Dyle TV platform. So what gives?   TV on your Phone According to the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters), “The process of integrating mobile TV transmission with an existing ATSC broadcast TV plant is not difficult. These are the basic devices required for local origination and network services: A video (AVC) and audio (HE AAC v2) encoder for each added program stream An IP path into the facility (for remote component ingest) An IP encapsulator to encapsulate all program streams and non-real-time files into the appropriate transport protocol A service multiplexer to multiplex the conventional ATSC stream with mobile TV data A mobile TV enabled exciter to replace the existing exciter in the ATSC transmitter The Mobile TV architecture provides full compatibility with all industry-standard ATSC equipment. Additionally, the system is compatible with all current microwave and fiber STL systems.”   And they list a ton of benefits for the broadcaster, “When a mobile TV system is implemented, broadcasters can expect the following operational and financial benefits: Leveraged investment in ATSC transmission Delivery of robust digital TV signals to mobile TV receiving devices Extension of local branding to mobile users The ability to redirect local news, weather, sports and traffic information to "consumers on the go" The addition of up to eight program (streams) of mobile content per station New revenue opportunities based on subscription, advertising and sell-through transactions”   We (The HT Guys) started talking seriously about Mobile HDTV back in 2010 when a group called Mobile Content Venture (MCV), a joint venture of 12 major broadcasters, announced a commitment to upgrade TV stations in 20 markets in order to deliver live video to portable devices. Their goal was to deliver mobile video service in markets representing more than 40% of the US population by late 2011. That group eventually released a platform of hardware and applications called Dyle TV. But as of May 22, 2015, Dyle mobile TV is no longer in service, and Dyle-enabled devices and their apps will no longer be supported.   Some may remember that Qualcomm tried and failed as well. They developed a technology called MediaFLO for transmitting audio, video and data to portable devices for mobile television and branded it in the US as FLO TV. But in October 2010, they announced they were suspending all new sales of the service to consumers and in December 2010, AT&T acquired Qualcomm's broadcast spectrum licenses in the 700 MHz band. FLO TV was officially shut down as a service in March of 2011. What gives? Many of us remember how many portable TVs were sold in the 1980's. How many Watchman TVs Sony was flooding the market with. And back then you had to carry a separate device with you just to watch TV. Often they were only black and white screens, and sure they were “portable,” but not nearly as portable as today's cell phones. How is it that free, over-the-air television, with no cost to consumers - no data charges, no minutes used - isn't a feature on every cell phone and tablet in America?   This is very different than the Aereo situation. With Mobile HDTV the same broadcaster is airing the same content in the same market. They're just broadcasting it to an entirely new set of screens. We don't know for sure, but it's entirely possible that the number of cell phones and tablets exceeds the number of TV screens in a lot of urban markets. Why wouldn't broadcasters want their content on those screens? Why wouldn't users want the ability to tune into live TV when they're stuck shopping at the mall all day on a Saturday? Or every tablet made, for any kid in a carset or at a restaurant. There's no cost to watch it. You don't even need a data connection.   There has to be some technical challenges with the technology that we weren't able to uncover, and we're hoping some of our listeners can shed some light on it. Because, as of right now, an app like Mobile HDTV from Motorola Mobility seems like a pretty big no-brainer. We just don't know why nobody has been able to get it to catch on.

On an island where most people have no Internet access, the arrival of mobile phone email service was embraced with joy. Tens of thousands of Cubans began emailing like crazy in March, for days, until the service started to fail, taking much of Cuba's already shaky voice and text-messaging mobile service down with it. The island's aging cellphone towers became swamped by the new flood of email traffic; creating havoc for anyone trying to use the system. Users had to make eight or nine attempts to successfully send an email. Even voice calls by non-subscribers' began to drop mid-conversation. Callers sounded like they were phoning from the bottom of the sea. Ordinary text messages arrived days late, or not at all. Since then, the state telecom monopoly Etecsa has issued a rare apology and the troubles have eased. But problems with the service, dubbed Nauta, offer a rare window into the Internet in Cuba. The country's digital age has been achingly slow to spread since arriving in 1996, leaving the country virtually isolated from the world of streaming video, photo-sharing and 4G cellphones. Cuba's government blames the technological problems on a U.S. embargo that prevents most American businesses from selling products to the Caribbean country. Critics of the government say it deliberately strangles the Internet to halt the spread of dissent. Other observers offer a less political explanation: a government desperate for foreign exchange is investing little in infrastructure improvements while extracting as much revenue as possible from communications services largely paid for by Cubans' wealthier overseas relatives. Experts say that the last explanation appears to be the primary culprit in the case of Nauta, in which the government tried to open connections with the world but floundered due to apparent poor planning and underinvestment. About 100,000 people, or around 5 percent of Cuban cellphone users, had subscribed to the service even though it cost 50 times that of many U.S. data plans. This is NEWS Plus Special English. Two of the world's largest technology giants have reached an agreement to settle all of their lawsuits against each other regarding smartphone patents. Apple and Google have announced that they are dropping nearly two dozen lawsuits in U.S. and European courts against each other. The disputes revolved around the operating systems Apple uses for its iPhone and Google's Android software as well as patent infringement accusations from Motorola Mobility, which Google acquired two years ago. Apple and Google said they would work together on patent reform and that the agreement does not include the cross licensing of technology. You're listening to NEWS Plus Special English. I'm Mark Griffiths in Beijing. Health officials have reported what appears to be the first time that a mysterious Middle East virus has spread from one person to another in the United States. An Illinois man probably picked up an infection from an Indiana man who earlier this month became the first U.S. case of Middle East respiratory syndrome, or MERS. The Illinois man, however, never needed medical treatment and is reported to be feeling well. The U.S. health department says the two men met twice before the Indiana man fell ill and was hospitalized, shortly after traveling from Saudi Arabia where he lived and was employed as a health care worker. Officials think the virus spread during a 40-minute business meeting that involved no more contact than a handshake. The new report also is not considered evidence that the virus is spreading more easily among people than previously thought. The virus is not considered to be highly contagious, and only spreads from person to person with close contact. Many of those who have become sick in the Middle East have been family members or health care workers caring for MERS patients. MERS belongs to the coronavirus family that includes the common cold and SARS, or severe acute respiratory syndrome. SARS caused some 800 deaths globally in 2003.

The mobile phone market has become highly sought-after as the world's major electronic appliance makers reorient their resources towards this increasingly profitable sector. Lenovo, the world's largest PC maker, has acquired Motorola Mobility from Google in a bid to use the established brand to increase its market share globally. It is expected that Lenovo may become the world's third largest mobile phone maker behind Samsung and Apple following this acquisition. Other Chinese companies including Huawei and ZTE have also invested more heavily in the sector to win out in the fierce competition. So how do industry insiders view the potential of Chinese companies in the global mobile phone market? In what way can these companies learn from their highly successful peers like Samsung? Ni Hao, you're listening to People In the Know, bringing you insights into the headlines in China, and around the world, I'm Zheng Chenguang in Beijing. We speak to Paul Budde, the Managing Director of Paul Budde Communication, an independent telecommunications research and consultancy organization based in Australia, and Li Ruiguo, vice president and partner of McQs, a consulting firm based in South Korea.

The discussions cover a wide range of subjects. You'll hear our reaction to Google's decision to sell the Motorola Mobility handset division to Lenovo, an Asian PC maker, the state of the PC industry in light of Sony's decision to leave the PC box business, Microsoft's new CEO, Satya Nadella, and whether having co-founder Bill Gates looking over his shoulder will help or hurt his performance, and the prospects for an iWatch and an Apple connected TV. Our guests this week include industry analyst Stephen Baker, Vice President for Industry Analysis at the NPD Group and outspoken columnist Bryan Chaffin, co-founder and co-publisher of The Mac Observer.

Once completed, the purchase will make Lenovo the world's third largest smartphone maker behind Samsung and Apple. The deal will also enable Lenovo to receive over 2,000 patent assets and the iconic Motorola Mobility brand. But Google will keep the majority of Motorola's patents, including existing patent applications and invention disclosure. Motorola Mobility makes Moto X and Moto G Android smartphones. It is currently the U.S' third-biggest Android-based smartphone manufacturer. Yang Yuanqing, Lenovo's chairman and CEO, says the deal will help Lenovo crack the smartphone market in the U.S. "The deal will not only help us to open the door to a mature market, but also boost our competiveness in the U.S. because of the patents we are going to receive. Google has a profound patent protection system, so it will make us a step ahead of our peers. I think such a deal worth 2.9 billion dollars. And Google can also get what it wants by retaining its key patents. It is a win-win deal. " Yang says the company has set a goal of selling 100 million smartphones worldwide in 2015. Motorola Mobility's CEO, Dennis Woodside, says Lenovo's hardware expertise and global reach will help Motorola to accelerate its new product sales. Motorola reported a loss of 249 million dollars in the third quarter of 2013, up 24 percent from the same period a year ago. Liu Jun, vice president of Lenovo's mobile business group, says the company plans to stage a comeback for Motorola in the Chinese market. "Motorola used to have a very good reputation in China and the brand was well known. So if everything goes according to the plan, we will bring Motorola phones back to the Chinese market." The deal is the second major acquisition for Lenovo in just two weeks. Last week, the Thinkpad-maker said it will buy IBM's low-end server business for 2.3 billion dollars. Following its purchase of IBM's personal computer business in 2005, the Beijing-based firm has started a number of international mergers and acquisitions to enhance its global presence. In 2013, the company was rated as the world's largest PC maker, and China's second biggest smartphone seller after Huawei. However in the global smartphone market, Lenovo accounts for only 4.5 percent of the sales. That lags far behind the top seller, Samsung, which controls over 31 percent of the market. The Motorola Mobility deal still needs to be approved by U.S. and Chinese regulators.

We are also joined by John Martellaro, Senior Editor, Analysis & Reviews for The Mac Observer and a columnist for The Street, who will focus his conversation on Google's decision to sell its Motorola Mobility handset division, at fire sale prices, to Lenono, the large Asian PC maker. You'll also hear him explain why Wall Street doesn't understand Tim Cook, the future of the Mac, and an illuminating encounter with a disappointed Microsoft Surface RT customer.

In this episode of the Litigation Quality Patents® Podcast, Craige elaborates on the federal circuit’s current “hot trend” of endorsing the doctrine of secondary considerations as being vital in determining obviousness. Other key issues discussed are how to properly incorporate by reference in a patent and provide proper priority claims to a provisional patent application. Craige’s special guests are: Dr. John Leighton- associate attorney at Thompson Patent Law, Mike Heinrich- an attorney and consultant in engineering and intellectual property areas Jason Rosenblum- an Intellectual Property attorney specializing in Trademarks, with offices in New York. Listen to the Podcast: EPISODE 20 – The Examiner Whisperer – Apple v ITC & Motorola Mobility – Aug 15 2013 Litigation Quality Patents® Podcasts The Litigation Quality Patents® Podcast, hosted each week by Craige Thompson (a.k.a., “The Examiner Whisperer”) contains substantive discussion designed to keep you current with what’s going on in the world of patents, encompassing everything from patent prosecution and re-examination to patent licensing and litigation.

The irrepressible Rik Myslewski, Managing Editor for The Register, a UK-based "snarky" tech publication, and a long-time observer of Apple Inc., discusses the advances in the iPhone 5s, including 64-bit support, plus state-of-the-art developments in the chip industry. You'll also hear from Dann Berg, Reviews Editor for The Verge, who will consider the recent efforts by Google and Microsoft to deliver a vertical solution to building new gear that is similar to Apple's. So we have Google's purchase of Motorola Mobility in 2011, and the recent announcement that Microsoft was acquiring the mobile handset division of Nokia. He'll also give you his early reactions to iOS 7, the major upgrade to Apple's mobile OS.

Last year, Google bought Motorola Mobility for $12.5 billion. As usually happens in such a merger, the law department went though a significant re-organization. Of the law department's 250 people, 150 departed post-merger — some to Google headquarters in Mountain View, Calif., others left the company. The MM law department took Google's instructions to better use technology to heart, and not only "ate the dog food," (i.e., used Google technology) but became a "skunkworks" operation — actually developing new technology tools and apps to help the legal team streamline processes and deliver faster, better, cheaper, and transparent legal services. Law Technology Now host Monica Bay, an attorney and editor-in-chief of ALM’s Law Technology News, interviews David Kenzer, Motorola’s vice president of law, and Elizabeth Jaworksi, director of legal operations, about how the MM law department embraced Google's culture.
