POPSTop 10 Small Business Trends for 2010 In the 80s rescession, Charles Handy came of up the term "portfolio person" to describe how people would make a living. I have been advocating homeworking and the importance of the local economy (and local currencies) since then, too. As a content analyst, I have been advocating "analytical tool" for (self signifying) "data driven decisions" for even longer. And we are still a small business. But it looks like the opportunity to become a big business might be presenting itself. The data seems to be pointing that way (along with our order book).

POPSHumans use the technology, not viceversa It is very easy to blame the technology on the worst problems of humanity. But technology is only a catalyst, which accelerates and empowers human activity. New weapons enable more lethal wars, new equipments allow saving more lives in hospitals. If new technologies seem to generate new problems it is because of this effect, which transforms something, rendering it at a greater scale and thus noticeable. For those who think otherwise, they have at their disposal may alternatives, as the Amish lifestyle.

POPSBecoming too reliant and emotionally attached to your personal computer RAM (Random Access Memory) is an animation about becoming too reliant and emotionally attached to your personal computer. It is an exaggeration of my research on recent trends of dependency and attachment found in children for their PCs, especially in the US and UK. The animation centres on the interaction between two boys, Mark and Tylr, while the technical focus of the piece is on animation, particularly facial animation. The style of the piece is based on Japanese anime, which has already been used for many technological and sci-fi series, and is born from a country famous for its technophilia and tendency to use technology for fun and companionship. The voice actors I used were children I overheard at a comic book store, and while most of the dialogue is scripted, I also made use of excess recordings that were just too lol to not use. Enjoy!

POPSGlobal Warming Legislation Effect on States The preceding is a list of the 50 state-by-state breakouts of the impact the bill would have on jobs and the economy. Lieberman-Warner (S.2191) relies heavily on an unproven technology, capturing carbon and sequestering it. Even with the most generous assumptions " presuming that carbon capture and sequestration is commercially developed in 10 years " the economic costs for the average American are staggering. Under a more realistic scenario, the economic impacts in terms of losses in the job market, losses in household budgets, and higher energy prices will be drastically higher. To make matters worse, there will be inconsequential effects on the environment to show for it, if any. The Senate's leading climate-change bill, while aiming to combat global warming by reducing carbon dioxide in the air, actually poses "extraordinary perils" for Americans and the economy, according to a new study from The Heritage Foundation.

POPSPour tirer profit des médias sociaux, il faut d'abord y accéder Perspectives intéressantes dans ce billet sur le réseau des blogues de Gartner qui fait suite à la publication des données d'une étude de la firme Robert Half Technology sur l'accès aux médias sociaux dans les entreprises. Cette étude nous apprenait que plus de la moitié des entreprises bloquent l'accès à des services comme Twitter, LinkedIn et autres. Un autre blogueur, encore chez Gartner, doute quant à lui de la justesse de ces chiffres et a lancé son propre sondage en ligne. Qu'en pensez-vous? Et vous, avez vous accès à ces services depuis votre poste de travail au bureau?
