      	      IT organizations should not wait for an official declaration that a recession has begun before undertaking IT cost-cutting efforts, according to Gartner, Inc. Gartner analysts believe that economic factors in the United States have deteriorated to the point where action is required and are advising U.S. businesses to prepare for cutting IT costs. Organizations based in other countries where gross domestic product (GDP) growth is projected to grow less than 2 percent in 2008 are also advised to prepare for IT cost cutting now.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/427521E9-FD51-441C-BC74-8FE1CD73E6A3/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
