Living and Working in the Virtual
Workplace
08/11/2004 03:06 AM

For some reason, I found myself thinking about how different my "work day" is now than it was 5 years at when I worked at Marathon Oil in Findlay, Ohio. Then Back then my day was fairly straightforward. I got to work at roughly the same time each day (typically a bit later than I hoped, but I'm not a morning person). I worked at my desk until lunch time. Then some of us would usually head to lunch, come...

The Virtual Mobile Virtual Network
Operator From 7-Eleven


The Virtual Mobile Virtual Network
Operator From 7-Eleven
04/27/2004 05:27 PM
Mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) are nothing new. Virgin, both in the UK and the US, has been quite successful creating their own mobile phone carrier, despite not having a network of their own, but simply handling the branding and management, while leaving all the technology issues to a network operator partner. So far, most MVNOs seem to be targeting the youth market (often with "pre-paid plans"), and considering just how lucrative that market seems these days, it's no surprise that plenty of others want into the market. However, operating the whole MVNO is probably a lot of work, so now we're getting to the point where you have virtual MVNOs (VMVNOs) who will do all the work for a company, and simply slap their brand on the final product. That seems to be what's happening with convenience store 7-Eleven, who has announced plans to sell pre-paid mobile phones and service under the "Speak Out" brand - though, all the work appears to be done by Ztar Mobile. Other retailers are quickly expected to follow. Wal-Mart is at the top of the list, with Costco and Home Depot also apparently considering their own mobile phone offerings. The idea is to target younger users, or those with bad credit histories, who can simply pick up a phone at the store, and use it until their minutes run out, at which point they can top it up again - back at the store, of course.

Best Way To IM In The Workplace?


Best Way To IM In The Workplace? 09/02/2004 01:49 PM
The latest study on instant messaging in the workplace holds very few surprises. As expected, instant messaging is growing in the workplace, and it's being used for both personal and work reasons. The way the report is worded, it's a little strange, but it sounds as though some people focus on IM for work, and others for personal communications, but not many do both. As expected, some find IM helpful towards productivity, while others aren't so enthusiastic about it. It's basically described as a "mixed blessing," since it can make important communications more efficient, but can also be distracting and may lead to more "gossip." What struck me, in reading this, is that for all the talk we have about how to make email more productive, there hasn't been that much on the instant messaging side. One of the things, personally, that I've noticed is that I needed to learn to not respond to instant messages so quickly and let that distract me from whatever I was working on. Also, I'm curious about how people handle IM list management. Back before IM, people would lose touch with certain friends or old colleagues over time, which may have actually been a good thing. But, with your IM buddy list, they're there forever. More people seem to be shifting their IM names when they change jobs, or even setting up specific "@work" IM addresses that can be changed -- but that makes it more difficult to manage (and how do you deal with people who are both personal and work connections?). It seems that, like with email, it's about time that there were more commonly established best practices in making IM productive in the workplace -- and doing so in a way that doesn't mean completely starting over from what you already have.
