Today's Story Highlights

Yahoo and the Year of Living Dangerously
If there is a lesson to be drawn from Internet search giant Yahoo's
hellish past year, it is a grimly illustrative one: Never assume a
cybersecurity disaster can't get worse. Last September, the Internet
portal disclosed that it had suffered the most damaging and far-reaching
data breach in history -- only to then announce in December the
discovery of a second, earlier, and even larger hack.

FastComputer: Fussy but Fixable
FastComputer Linux is a disappointing experience that almost fails. It
is poorly designed, has little community support, and lacks its own home
base and identity, all of which contribute to an identity crisis. Its
home -- on Sourceforge.com -- lacks much in attractiveness, as does the
distro. The Linux OS offers developers and users choice among desktop
options and OS standards.

New LinkedIn Site Design Encourages Engagement
LinkedIn has announced a new look tied to a complete overhaul of its
technology architecture, which brings conversations and content front
and center. The redesign brings the LinkedIn desktop in line with the
mobile browser version launched in 2015. LinkedIn will roll out its new
desktop globally over the next few weeks. Among the changes are a
streamlined navigation bar and smarter messaging.
