- Philippines Call Centres. WSJ writes about the culture spawned by the call centres in Philippines - something we will probably see replicated in India. There are 30,000 people answering phones and e-mail queries in Manila, doing work -- for $600 to $800 a month -- that generally pays better than bookkeeping in a bank or similar white-collar employment. That figure could double over the next couple of years, call-center operators predict, creating a middle class that actually stays in the Philippines rather than one that must emigrate to work overseas, as millions of Filipinos have done. At 2 a. |

- RSS for Enterprises. David Galbraith writes: Phil Wainewright has a very thorough and thoughtful piece on Loosely Coupled. Phil looks at Webmethods' recent acquisitions within the broader context of what happens when enterprise software all starts to communicate through standardized web services based API's, rendering a whole industry (EAI) obsolete. Its an interesting mirror of what is happening at a grass roots level with syndicated content and standardized API's for weblog style publishing systems. |

- "Perhaps we can also agree that coming directly after the Rush Limbaugh witch trial, the public burning of Easterbrook demonstrates that 'free speech' is moribund. I can already hear the libertarians howling: 'Greg Easterbrook has the right to say what he believes, and his employer has the right to no longer employ him as a result.' I would have thought those that claim to believe in liberty would oppose a society where only the independently wealthy can afford free speech, but libertarians of the Virginia Postrel ilk are too busy prostrating themselves before the Golden Calf to notice the fear that drapes America like a pall."Thanks to EnterStageRight for the headsup (new word). |

- Governor Blogger, aka Howard Dean, doesn't understand the Net except as a fund-raising tool, but maybe Wesley Clark will, given his intellect and independent bent--well documented in the Washington Post. In fact, a Web log called Independents for Clark has at least taken noncommittal note of our warning against the imposition of DMCAism on the rest of the Western Hemisphere. Time for Clark himself to speak out against a Hollywood-oriented Net policy?The Net as a way to catch up with Dean: In today's New York Post, Dick Morris, the former Clinton advisor who ended up veering sharply to the right, describes Clark's Net situation this way: |
