John Stankey, who previously headed up AT&T’s consumer wireline business will be CEO of AT&T operations. His primarily responsibilities will center around AT&T’s wireless and wireline n

According to a Twitter post from Evan Hansen, the Web site’s editor in chief, the company laid off 3 out of 25 full-time staffers or 12 percent of its workforce.

In November, Wired.com laid off 10 percent of its staff. Wired magazine was once a must-read for the cybergroovy but has since had to contend, like all print publishers, with more competition from online sources of technology stories.

Among those who lost their jobs was Eliot Van Buskirk, a much respected dig

“Worries about climate change and energy security are still on the political agenda, and indeed the latter issue has become even more topical with the dispute over gas supplies between Russia and Ukraine and the conflict in Gaza. And Obama is not the only leader seeing clean energy as an important element in the programs they are planning, to help stimulate economic activity,” Liebreich said.

It’s no secret that Martin, who will be leaving his post in January when a new administration takes office, wanted to tackle these issues before the end of his term as chairman. But the FCC also faces a November 5 court-mandated deadline to come up with a solution that addresses a sliver of this problem.

Production isn’t the only thing being scaled back at Intel because of the world economy. The world’s largest chipmaker will cancel its developer conference in Taiwan this year and scale back the one in Beijing.

Attendance will fall dramatically in Beijing. “Before we would bring more than 100 international press to the event. But now the event is really geared toward the local community. We’re looking at under 1,000 attendees instead of 5,000 plus,” he said. Dickstein said he is wo

Cisco and social networking?
At first glance, it seems odd that Cisco, a company that sells hardware to shuttle bits around the Internet, would get into the Web 2.0 social networking business.
