IBM Unveils Building Blocks for 21st Century Infrastructure

IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced new services and products to help clients build a new, more dynamic infrastructure that will bring more intelligence, automation, integration, and efficiencies to the digital and physical worlds. As a result, it will enable businesses and governments to better respond to and manage challenges presented by today's globally integrated planet.

The new products and services enable clients to use powerful computing systems to manage and gain insight from an increasing number of things in their physical infrastructure that are being instrumented with intelligent sensors.

Omamination doesn’t realize it but he will create a bunch of jobs for RFID neutralizers and Smart powered device defeators.
I for one want no part of this electronic surveilance world. Don’t give a damn what IBM and GE want.
