It would be very interesting to to see the yearly profile and time and effort invested to determine the effort/reward ratio for blogs like this. People are unlikely to provide such information on public sites (if at all), but it still wou

Hi fromedome. Thank you for your submissions. Good to know you are not a bot :)
454.
by babul 18y ago
Yes, I saw that, but it is the content not the submitter that mattered.

by babul 18y ago
Because it is the same story (albeit in two forms) and was posted here within minutes of each other. Hence the same response.

I find his blog often very funny. Insight with wit. Better than just insight or just wit. Again, imho.

I was also interested in Woz's watch i.e. what was on the display/facia. Can't get a clear view of it in the video though

Even in the UK many employers complain about lack of graduate quality. In fact today Imperial College in London announced it will be doing 4-year degrees instead of 3-year ones to address issues in falling educational standards.

Graduate unemployability issues apply to 1st world countries too not just India and 3rd world.

In UK there is much evidence showing as the economy here slows down, people are spending less on the high-street and more online. Hence even if you are a small shop, you should get online. You never know what can happen.

If you are a business, having an online presence is always important. Especially if you are able to incorporate ecommerce elements based on your business model.

Yes. Possibly, depends on what is done and went wrong. In U.S. we have a few people from Florida Bar who do most U.S. related clients. Most work undertaken in our U.K. offices with the usual pre/post reviews by the senior legal team/section

Learning by doing is often the best way to learn and get up to speed. I am very happy to hear the opportunities afforded to those of poorer backgrounds in India by this scheme too.

by babul 18y ago
Not that I know of. In the US/UK you need to be a member of the bar/law-society to practice as a lawyer/solicitor (i.e. represent clients) but there is no reason why the actual work itself cannot be outsourced. In fact most of the menial wo

Thanks. What do you think of Trac?

Many universities and organisations in India are gearing towards outsourcing legal talent based on UK/US law and it seems only a matter of time before we see a boom in this area. This is occurring in both ends of the market from the persona

For me, ironically, as it grows it is also starting to lose its lustre through mass adoption leading to lower quality and fewer connections... connectivity activity diluted? new joiners not so interested in engaging as observing? new joiner

Using http://www.younoodle.com in early 2008 was as exciting as any site I used in years, simply because it was clean, functional, fast, responsive and most importantly allowed me to connect with people I was interested in and led to seve

I am in a similar boat, and simply have started going to the events I can. Where I live there is not much happening. Ultimately you reap what you sow, so with this in mind I select the key events and make the time and effort to go there and

You seem to have good experience using Sharepoint (>3yrs). Can out point out any good alternatives you think are worth considering (especially free/open-source offerings)?

by babul 18y ago
How does Trac compare to SharePoint (WSS3)? I am looking at building a collaboration platform that does a lot of what Sharepoint offers. Looking at using Trac or WSS3 or something better if anyone knows of anything. Thanks.

Great. I hope to be in SV maybe this fall to visit friends doing things there. It would be nice to meet you. Just starting to use friendfeed/twitter/etc myself (in an effort to lead a more transparent life and connect the dots), so will add

If you knew about my life, understood the problems I face and offered realistic and achievable solutions, and were someone I had respect for (even if I don't know you personally), then yes, I probably would. :)

Initially you may worry about karma (as I did too) but we have to realise it does not exist (and that it does not matter)! I now appreciate down votes and see it as a way for the community to 'teach me' (not in a negative way par se but as
