Today's Story Highlights

Quirky but Useful Gifts: Rob Enderle's 2018 Personal Tech Product Guide
This is the time of year for a product guide. I'm a big fan of products
most people don't have that solve a specific work problem, as well as
those that could make your life easier, more comfortable or more fun. I
like to give gifts that people actually would use. In some cases, due to
the cost, these may be things you'd buy only for yourself, a spouse, or
a relative you really want to impress.

Facebook Staffers Once Brainstormed Ways to Sell User Data: Report
Facebook at one time considered charging companies for access to its
user data, according to a report based on three pages of unredacted
material from an 18-page document showing portions of some internal
Facebook emails, mainly from about 2012 to 2014. The documents are
linked to a lawsuit, Six4Three LLC v. Facebook Inc. , alleging that
Facebook's data policies were anticompetitive.

Amazon Comprehend Medical Makes Sense of Scattered Healthcare Data
Amazon has announced Amazon Comprehend Medical, a language processing
service that lets users gather information -- such as a patient's
medical condition and medication dosage, strength and frequency -- from
sources including doctors' notes, clinical trial reports, hospital
admission notes and patient health records. Most health and patient data
currently is stored as unstructured medical text.

Void Linux: Built From Scratch for Full Independence
Void Linux is a bit out of the ordinary. It offers an unusually
interesting alternative to many of the traditional Linux distros
affiliated with a larger Linux family such as Debian or Ubuntu or Arch.
Void Linux is an independently developed, rolling-release, general-
purpose operating system. That means that its software is either
homegrown or plain-vanilla compiled.
