Interested news-lovers on this list: now that a little time has passed, are you looking at the Wikimedia blog more often? :-) Specifically, https://blog.wikimedia.org/c/technology/ might be interesting for you (the tech posts).
You might like to subscribe to https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-ambassadors which is a list that gets notified when interesting new tech is coming into MediaWiki and will affect the Wikimedia sites -- it is often stuff that is interesting to enterprises as well. And our Twitter feed at https://twitter.com/MediaWiki (also available on Identi.ca) might be something you'll enjoy as well!
