1. Spotlight Feature: 10 Tips for Taking Your Business to the Cloud
------------------------------------------------------------
There's little room for error if your company decides to make the
transition from a provider of on-premise solutions to a service provider
via cloud computing. If you don't take the time to develop reliable
services that match the reliability of your on-premise offerings, your
credibility will suffer.

2. Editor's Pick: Sales 2.0: Getting Social About Selling
------------------------------------------------------------
As the proliferation of online social media forums has forever changed
the way customers gain information and feedback concerning a particular
company's products or services, sales representatives are challenged to
sell to a prospect base that potentially knows as much, if not more,
about the competitive landscape than the reps themselves.

3. Readers' Pick: 8 Cures for Small Marketers' Common Ailments
------------------------------------------------------------
Ask most people what they like about working with small marketing firms
and you'll hear answers such as "their personal approach" or "I'm not
just a customer number to them" or "I get to work with the heavy hitters
instead of some trainee just out of school." Yes, those are the things
they say when things are going well.

4. Consumer Highlight: The Netflix Stream's New Tributary: TiVo
------------------------------------------------------------
Netflix and TiVo announced Thursday the roll out of a streaming video
service for subscribers. Set for availability in early December, the
service appears to be the culmination of a deal the two companies
originally announced in 2004. The TiVo-Netflix venture is the latest in
a series of similar partnerships Netflix has announced this year.

5. Hot Topic: Credit Default Swaps: 'Financial WMDs'
------------------------------------------------------------
We are all painfully aware of what is happening on Wall Street. In fact,
I think that it might take several years for the stock market to regain
the value that it has lost in the past year -- approximately 35 percent.
No doubt, there is plenty of blame to go around as to who is primarily
responsible for this financial debacle. However, most experts agree that
a prime candidate for blame is the credit default swap.
