Today’s Business English News podcast comes from an article on the recent positive statements by the CEO of Infosys on the future of India’s economy. India’s economy has long been overshadowed by the rapid rise of China and SE Asia. More recently though, attention has started to turn to India, who’s strong economic growth and skilled workforce have spurred interest. Many economists are now predicting steady growth at 8% per year with India set to become a 1 trillion dollar economy by 2008. We use this article to look at some of the English words and expressions you can use to talk about economic trends and human resources. The transcript and vocabulary notes for this Business English News podcast will be released on Sunday, 4 March.
I finally switched my main business land-line phone to digital cable

| Link to this blogI finally switched my main business land-line phone to digital cable. That Bell South business phone (with all the bells and whistles, including a fax line "Ringmaster Service") was costing me about $112/month, for the past five years, Time-Warner cable is charging me $30/month for almost the same service.
Content management efforts are justly infamous for exceeding budgets and timelines, despite making considerable accomplishments. Exaggerated expectations for tool capabilities (vendors promise a world of automagic simplicity, but don't believe the hype) and the potential value of cost and efficiency improvements from managing content creation and distribution play a substantial part in this. But unrealistic estimates of the scope of the content to be managed make a more important contribution to most cost and time overruns. Scope in this sense is a combination of the quantity and the quality of content; smaller amounts of very complex content substantially increase the overall scope of needs a CM solution must manage effectively. By analogy, imagine building an assembly line for toy cars, then deciding it has to handle the assembly of just a few full size automobiles at the same time. Early and inaccurate estimates of content scope have a cascading effect, decreasing the accuracy of budgets, timelines, and resource forecasts for all the activities that follow.
Good article over at eWeek called “RSS Offers Relief from Enterprise E-Mail Overload.” It talks about how email has fallen out of favor as a way of distributing information to large groups of people, and how certain businesses are starting to use RSS. The article also covers some negatives of RSS, including: * Problems with adoption and inertia from some users * How RSS feeds can reduce page visits, and
In addition to asking you (the reader of this blog) to participate in gathering examples of what Enterprise 2.0 means to you (please do participate) and giving you examples of my own usage of 2.0 tools and technologies as an enterprise worker, i have also been looking for posts from corporate bloggers (those i would define as public bloggers who are blogging openly about the company they work for) that i can highlight on the subject.
You might wish to discuss this article on your blog. The article traces the development of MNC’s up to the present. It is a celebration of the MNCs and their positive impact on globalization. Unfortunately, Palisiano (CEO of IBM) does not address the issue of corporate power in distorting the market place and in controlling governments themselves (think K Street). Nor does he seriously address the rising global inequality of wealth (think sweat shop labor).
Add Business Module Using Web Client Software Factory - Solution ...
David Hayden
| Link to this blogI will be presenting the Web Client Software Factory at both the South Florida Code Camp and Orlando Code Camp in the near future. I am really excited about presenting the new factory, because in a nutshell - IT ROCKS! The Composite Web Application Block that is the brains of the new framework helps you build enterprise quality websites with little effort. The concepts and technologies themselves aren't new as many developers have been using similar technologies and techniques in all our enterprise web applications. The beauty is that they are all nicely packaged, providing a seemless development environment for creating loosely-coupled n-layer web applications.
