The New York Times and CNN have both built strong online presences – through strongly contrasting technology strategies. Senior players at both companies explain “The New York Times is now as much a technology company as a journalism company,” its executive editor Bill Keller said recently. A glance at the top 10 breaking news sites online shows how seriously that statement must be taken, because in 2009 that list was often led by a tech company rather than a traditional news organisation

GE Healthcare is releasing a new radiological software package that brings together data from various modalities, like CT, MRI, and X-ray, into one volumetric visualization. The system also improves data coming off tomographs by managing blurring caused by organ movement during the original scans. Built upon Innova’s exceptional 3D imaging platform, Innova EPVision provides image overlay and delivers gated image stabilization, reducing image artifact that can occur with patient movement, cardiac motion or breathing.

Michael Berger at Nanowerk is reporting on recent research out of Spain to embed microelectronics within living cells, a feat that promises to provide intracellular sensing for research and medical monitoring applications. Turns out we’re not very far away from this reality due to the nanoscale production of modern microprocessors. A tidbit from Nanowerk : In their experiments, the Spanish team fabricated different batches of polysilicon chips and then chose the most suitable device type with lateral dimensions of 1.5-3μm and with a thickness of 0.5 μm to be placed inside living cells

Microsoft have made some good moves with WP7 – a standardised feature set, a fairly intuitive and finger friendly GUI and some obvious, but to date ignored, innovation, such as the ability to play the same game across devices and continue where left off. IE, be playing on an XBOX 360 at home and then continue on the bus with your phone. Why didn’t anyone else do that already?
