Offshoring By Any Other Name

Offshoring By Any Other Name 09/24/2004 08:06 PM
Not too many people like the sound of "offshoring" -- literally, the sound of the word -- not just it's meaning. So the euphemisms to replace "offshoring" are springing up everywhere, with not-so-sneaky terms like "co-sourcing" and "global sourcing" peppering our vernacular. Outsourcing is dead, too, replaced with the mouthful: "business process transformation services" agreements. Isn't that so double-plus-ungood? Obviously, offshoring is still with us, and it's going to be with us, and it arguably should be with us. So while avoiding the word offshoring might avoid the spread of panic, hopefully we're not forgetting to address the root causes of our concerns: that we haven't answered the 'What's Next?' question. Though perhaps using bigger words and round-about descriptions is part of the plan to help educate the country to think more critically.

A Careful Look At Offshoring

A Careful Look At Offshoring 12/22/2003 03:11 AM
Yet another article that takes a look at the "offshoring trend", but this one actually takes a step back to put the whole thing in perspective. From a historical vantage point, this trend doesn't seem all that different that past trends where products made in the US were eventually outsourced. The article quotes Walter Mondale from twenty years ago, when he was worried about chip production going to Japan, saying: "What are our kids supposed to do? Sweep up around Japanese computers and sell McDonald's hamburgers the rest of their lives?" Instead, what happened was that cheap chips resulted in a technology boom that certainly helped the US economy quite a bit over the next two decades. The article also points out what we've been saying here all along: the rush to outsource is a bit shortsighted for most companies. Those who are only looking at the salary aspect of it, don't realize that there are many more costs involved, and many are already starting to regret the decision to outsource. However, in some areas, it clearly does make sense to outsource, but the number of jobs that will go overseas each year is a very very small number - and pales when compared to the number of jobs lost each year naturally through layoffs and company closings. Finally, the article points out that, when done right, offshoring is a net positive for our economy - and has been historically. This doesn't mean that it doesn't make life hard for some people who lost their jobs. However, instead of thinking up protectionist plans, the US should be making an effort to train these displaced employees for better jobs in sectors that need them.

Offshoring... To Click On Ads

Offshoring... To Click On Ads 05/03/2004 04:44 PM
For all the talk of offshoring labor, it seems that many in India have answered "earn rupees clicking ads" advertisements found (ironically enough) on Google, which basically pay people to sit at home and clic k on advertisements on specific websites to help those sites earn more pay-per-click ad dollars. This, of course, is always the risk with any sort of pay-per-click advertising scheme. Those who stand to make money are always going to look for ways to increase the clicks. While it's easy to pick out automated clickers, having a network of people around the world who are paid to click the ads could be a lot trickier. Of course, this may remind some people of dot-com bubble companies like AllAdvantage - but at least in that (failed) case, advertisers knew what they were getting involved with. If such fraudulent clicks continue on content sites for advertising networks, it could noticeably decrease the value of such ads.

Impact of Offshoring 06/12/2004 08:35 PM

According to a survey commissioned by Bureau of Labor Statistics, just 2.5% of jobs lost are due to offshoring.  AFL-CIO thinks the survey is faulty.  My own experience suggests the number is bigger, at least in the Silicon Valley where I work.  At one company I have worked with for many years, it's engineering department was downsized to barebones and replaced with a large growing team of engineers in India.  2.5%?  Not even close

Offshoring where do we go next and my
run in with a pitch man 07/07/2004 07:21 PM

I felt really sorry for the guy that called the office last week. I get the holler from across the hallway hey some guy wants to talk to you about offshoring wanna take it? Hmmmmmmm those of you that have been reading here for awhile know my stance on offshoring. (When Hell freezes over) So I take the guys call. The least he could have done is called me via a real land-line instead I get the common static buzz of a net based call. We talk for about 30 minutes while I pick the guys brain nothing really brain shattering came out of the discussion.

He ask to send me some info and I say sure, I would be happy to look at their promotion material. A week later what finally shows up in my inbox, his pitch material curious read to say the least. Call me traditional, "Made in the USA" and "Support Stays in the USA". If any of you would like a copy of what they sent me drop me a line, I'll forward it to you. Companies are now weighing the backlash of their customers before offshoring some say it makes up at least 50% of the decision level process. [ZDNet]

Charlie Daniels' anti-anti-war rant 03/15/2003 10:13 PM
Musician Charlie Daniels is disgusted by Hollywood types who oppose Bush's plan to invade Iraq.

You people are some of the most disgusting examples of a waste of protoplasm I’ve ever had the displeasure to hear about.

Sean Penn, you’re a traitor to the United States of America. You gave aid and comfort to the enemy. How many American lives will your little, ”fact finding trip“ to Iraq cost? You encouraged Saddam to think that we didn’t have the stomach for war.

You people protect one of the most evil men on the face of this earth and won’t lift a finger to save the life of an unborn baby.

Freedom of choice you say?
