Corporates promote blogs as office tools

Social networking sites like Orkut and Facebook and blogs are part of your personal life, right? If you are lucky and these sites aren’t blocked at work, you probably manage to steal a few minutes at work to access them, while pretending to be hard at work. But if you work for a select few companies that see such sites as vital office communication tools, then social networking online could all be in a day’s work. The benefits? The emergence of a whole new, democratic work culture.

A Masters Early Work; Just Look Past the Plot

Anyone who looks to Puccini’s early opera “Edgar� for signs of the master composer to come is bound to be perplexed. Commissioned by the publisher Ricordi, “Edgar,� Puccini’s second stage work and first full-length opera, was introduced in 1889. A cool reception led to multiple revisions, but “Edgar� never took hold in the opera house. The conductor Eve Queler, who made a pioneering recording of the work with the Opera Orchestra of New York in a 1977 Carnegie Hall concert, revived it there on Sunday night.

The Role of Healthcare Work Environments in Shaping a Safety Culture

A strong safety culture is critical to the ability of Canada's health care institutions and facilities to deliver high quality patient services. To meet this goal, these organizations need to build and sustain an organization-wide understanding and practice of safety.

Linux Foundation - We'd Love to Work with Microsoft

johnno writes "In an interview with the Australian site pc world Jim Zemlin, the Linux Foundation's executive director, talks about the desire to interoperate with Microsoft and discusses the desktop outlook for Linux. He answers questions on the kind of legal protection Linux requires, whether anything ever come of the Microsoft protest that there's Linux code that they have patented, as well as Linux penetration on desktops and breaking Microsoft's stranglehold on the market. He also discusses Microsoft's recent move to open up their documentation, and why they'd like to work with the Redmond giant — 'We'd like to have a place where developers can come and work on making Linux more effectively interoperate with Microsoft products. And we'd like to do that in the open-source way that's not tied to any specific marketing agreement, that

How to make the iPhone work at work

Art: She and Her Here and There

A new Live Art work which invites the audience on an excursion through urban space. The work travels along a route that reveals interventions which playfully define the relationship between individuals and the spaces we inhabit. She and Her are a performance duo creating public interventions. As integral part of their work they use signs and symbols which become focal points that allow the audience to experience a surreal interpretation of the everyday. This event is part of Enterprise 08 Multi-Arts Festival.

Art World Data Visualization

Jennifer Dalton's work very often takes up the art world as its subject matter. Art about art--and the world that revolves around it--can often be cheeky at best, but Dalton manages to pull it off with grace, wit, and originality. She also tends to merge newer and more traditional media in doing so, ranging from internet art to paintings to temporary sculptures. On March 8, Brooklyn-based alternative art space Smack Mellon will open a solo show of her work, entitled "Jennifer Dalton is a Scientist--Not!". This moniker comes from an entry written by a gallery visitor on one of the surveys Dalton facilitated over the last year, in preparation for the show. As the gallery notes, the project puts a unique spin on the concept of site-specific art by revolving the work around the space's audience.

How to make the (new) iPhone work at work

With the release of Apple's iPhone SDK now come and gone, and the enhanced IT-oriented capabilities planned for the next major iPhone software update in June, it's clear that the iPhone is going to be a corporate mainstay. Still, at its heart, the iPhone is a consumer device, so IT leaders still have to ensure that the iPhones that come in the door fit their data management and security strategies.

Hidden in Plain Sight: Rik Pinkcombe

Focal Point Gallery's upcoming exhibition, Hidden in Plain Sight, features the work of British photographer Rik Pinkcombe. Taken in the US and Britain, Pinkcombe's recent work looks at the external pressures of modern living and how these pressures shape our perception of life. What drives his work is questioning the outside influences on our identity: in essence, how we are affected and influenced by them. This breaks down into two categories: who we are and where we are from. In some of the works, Pinkcombe looks at racial identity through images of borders, bridges, and traffic stops, which link communities and also symbolise immigration and emigration. In others, he looks at class, mass media and consumerism, and the seemingly invisible effect this has on our society.

Matter

sdedeo writes "Less known than he deserves to be among American science fiction readers is Iain M. Banks. In his native United Kingdom, Banks' work is released in hardcover at the front of bookshops; here, those seeking his science fiction work, at least, must dig down into the trade paperbacks — and often find things out of print. Those who do discover him in the States are usually pleasantly surprised to find the writing far more clever and engagingly written than the low-budget production values imply. With Orbit's release of his latest work, Matter, as well as its planned re-release of some of his earlier classics, things look to change." Read below for the rest of Simon's review.

Block Any Search Engine While Developing

I have a site that has been online for years and I will be hiring a freelancer to work on our website by adding some new content and fixing old pages. The problem is I really do not want someone actually working on the master version of the site. I have extra domains and server space so what I would like to do is just upload a complete copy of my website to another domain, then the freelancer can work on individual pages and then when finished I can approve them and pull that page into my master website. Not sure if this is the best way but had a freelancer work on my site before and 3 months later found some things that I had not approved and it caused some major problems.

The Indian Connection Behind Linux Mobile

In the tech industry these days, when you lift a rock you often find a bunch of Indian programmers hard at work under it. So it goes with the LiMo Foundation, which is building a stack of open-source middleware and an application programming interface to run mobile phones. Azingo, a four-year-old mobile software company with headquarters in Sunnyvale, Calif., is on the board of LiMo and is performing a lot of the development and test work for the consortium. (LiMo has 30 members, including the likes of Motorola, Samsung, LG, and NTT DoCoMo) That work is being done by some of the 300-plus Azingo programmers in Pune and Hyderabad.

Kenji Yanobe builds nightmare future one robot at a time

The works of Kenji Yanobe are renowned in the Japanese art world for their nightmarish takes on the future. But peeling through Yanobe's portfolio of work reveals a particular obsession with man-meets-machine contraptions. From the fire breathing Giant Torayan (created as a child's toy, it actually breathes fire), to the erotic bug-like Radiation Suit Atom to the Dune-esque features of the Mini Tanking Machine, Yanobe's work hints at a future many of us would be afraid of, and others would revel in. If the dark side of sci-fi is your cup of sake, Yanobe's work will be on display at the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art until April 16th.
