links for 2010-03-31: Leadership Lessons; Rimini response to Oracle; Gmail and OAuth; Oracle closes loopholes; JumpBox eases apps on EC2; IBM buy Novell?; Apple violated multitouch patent?

• Leadership Lessons from Dancing Guy - Listen to the words.
  
• Rimini Street Sues Oracle - The saga continues.
• Gmail adds OAuth support - It is great that it opens the door to new apps, but remember, while you don't have to share your Gmail password, the 3rd party app still has full access to your e-mails.
• Oracle goes all or nothing on hardware support - Closing the loopholes Sun perhaps should have years ago.
• JumpBox Jumps Ahead - Open Source as a Service on Amazon EC2 - Making the cloud easier to use.  And there is a great library available that includes MySQL, PostgreSQL, Tomcat, Ruby on Rails, SugarCRM, MediaWiki, phpBB, Drupal, Liferay, Wordpress, Jasper, and much more.  But no GlassFish or JBoss?
  
• Why doesn't IBM just buy Novell already? - Interesting thought.  But then so is IBM buying RedHat or IBM buying Canonical.
  
• Chipmaker sues Apple for violating multitouch patent - What goes around, comes around.  Jonathan's blog on the subject is interesting as is Stephen O'Grady's reasons against software patents.
