CA Expands Cloud with Nimsoft Deal The Business Role of Interim Execs LifeLock To Pay $12M To Settle Case MS Assistive Technology for Seniors Bing Bangs Out More Market Share Contrary to popular wisdom, not every employee wants to move up the ladder. Whether you are offered a chance to move up or are mulling a career move, it's time to think about what you really want to attain.

A private-public partnership between Microsoft and the City of New York is introducing seniors to computer, video, and Internet technology in their homes to fight social isolation and deliver services.
