Xeni Jardin: Snipped from Declan McCullagh's politech list:

"...Goofing off on the cubicle computer may be today's version of the coffee break. But now some state lawmakers want the fun and games to stop - at least on company time. Saying taxpayers would be "outraged" to know how much work time is frittered away by insurance-commission secretaries and DMV employees honing their solitaire and Mine Sweeper skills on the state's 50,000 computers, Catawba County Republican Sen. Austin Allran has sponsored what may be the country's first anti- solitaire legislation..."

North Carolina's Battle Over Solitaire

North Carolina's Battle Over Solitaire 03/22/2005 04:32 PM

Is that a spreadsheet on your screen - or solitaire?: A North Carolina lawmaker wants to ban Solitaire. And — in the words of the guy from Fark — there's still no cure for cancer.

Senator Allran wants the state to erase the free game modules from all its computers - the digital version of throwing the deck in the trash can. The plan, he says, will save taxpayers millions in gained productivity - not to mention soothing their angst over secretaries and executives' long hours clicking digital decks.

[...] But for the country's burgeoning crop of workers who spend their days staring into computer screens, the notion of taking personal downtime on the company machine — and the company dime — can be an expression of individuality in a world where work and play are increasingly blurred. And sometimes, they say, it's the only way to muddle through the daily grind.

Sponsored VoIP?

Sponsored VoIP? 11/05/2003 02:55 AM
Just this morning we were talking about how price wars were pushing the price of VoIP lower and lower. So, it shouldn't be any surprise that some are experimenting with completely different business models around the idea of free VoIP. Up in Canada, Labatt Brewery decided to give everyone free VoIP calls, in exchange for a 10 second commercial about Labatt. The company that provided the VoIP service (it was a limited time promotion) is talking to other retailers about doing a similar sort of deal. It doesn't take much of an imagination to see how the ability for a company to brand VoIP could really disrupt the telecom world even more than expected. Suddenly, it won't be Verizon competing against Vonage - but Wal*Mart or Microsoft or Google... Already we have the MVNO concept in the wireless carrier world, where a company like Virgin can offer mobile phone service just by slapping their brand on a wireless carrier's service - so imagine the same thing in the VoIP world as well.
