Cisco SVP Carlos Dominguez says video is being integrated into all part of our lives rather it be advertising. TelePresence, talking to family or meeting online with global colleagues.
Employee work habits are radically diverging from historical patterns. Anywhere–the emergence of ubiquitous connectivity--is changing both where people work and how they collaborate. Remote working is becoming a prerequisite for workers. However, companies have been slow to react, resulting in lower productivity and isolated employees.
According to a Yankee Group survey, nearly three-quarters of workers believe allowing employees to work from home benefits the company. In addition, the majority of workers indicates that the ability to work from home is the single most important thing their company could do to increase their productivity. Employees are demanding flexibility, and the companies that fail to react to this trend will be at a severe competitive disadvantage in the war for talent.
This presentation covers the workforce of tomorrow–what employees' technological, social and professional needs will be and how to keep them connected. It includes:
* The pitfalls of and connectivity solutions for remote working
* Framework for mobilizing the workforce
* Recommendations for companies
An introduction to the concept of 'technoculture', a term that conjoins concepts that are often conventionally separated in Western thought. This year the lecture uses Twitter as a case study of a technology that in inextricably bound in culture.

Zucker. Kommunikation und Blätterwald haben die Inhalte der Twitter-Profile deutscher Unternehmen im Sommer 2009 untersucht. Die Erhebung und Analyse von insgesamt 723 Tweets aus 53 ausgewählten Unternehmen schafft erstmalig eine inhaltliche Bewertung von twitternden Unternehmen in Deutschland. Der Untersuchungszeitraum von einer Woche (20. bis 27.7.) wirft ein Schlaglicht auf den Umgang der Unternehmen mit dem Microbloggingdienst Twitter.
How can you make your content reach a wider audience, including the disabled?
People who reach life expectancy can look forward to be classified as disabled for about 11% of their lifetime. People with disabilities constitute the nation's (USA) largest minority group, the only one which any of us can join at any time. People with disabilities constitute about 15% of the population.
Making content more accessible to people with a variety of disabilities ranges from appearance (font size and color) to navigation aids. This slide deck summarizes Char James-Tanney's presentation with Adobe on June 19, 2012, in which she showed many compelling business reasons for reaching the disabled, in addition to the fact that it is "the right thing to do."

Worst tech mergers and acquisitions: Cisco
and Linksys; Apple and Lala.com

Corporate mergers - like marriages - can result in the whole being stronger than its
parts -- or they can end in utter disaster. The IT industry has suffered its share of
disastrous marriages. We're counting down the worst of the worst...
CISCO & LINKSYS
Cisco entered the highly competitive small office and home office market back in 2003,
by purchasing LINKSYS for $500M.
Linksys, once the dominant player in the space has since been joined by NETGEAR, D-
LINK, ASUS and numerous other vendors making nearly identical products, not to
mention that many service providers and telcos have also issued their own integrated
OEM Wi-Fi routers/residential gateways included as part of basic service offerings.
Linksys as a result fell on hard times -- first being somewhat neglected by its parent
company Cisco in the last several years, releasing extremely commoditized and less-
reliable products.
Various experimentation with "router design of the month" and heavy product overlap
had produced a lousy generation of home routers by 2010, which required a complete
re-design in 2011. Arguably this did improve the quality of LINKSYS's products. But it
was too late.
While LINKSYS did eventually solve its engineering issues, Cisco could not make the
consumer products division profitable when compared to its enterprise networking
equipment division.
LINKSYS is now owned by Belkin, and has since been producing very good quality
SOHO routers again, such as those which embrace the current 802.11ac "Wave 2"
standard.
APPLE & LALA
With most of the company mergers listed in this piece, although many of them turned
out horribly, you can at least say that the intentions of the company doing the
https://www.zdnet.com/article/worst-tech-mergers-acquisitions-cisco-linksys-apple/
acquisition had the objective of actually integrating the assets of the company being
acquired and making money with it.
I mean, this is usually why you acquire another company, right?
Apple bought music streaming service Lala.com back in December of 2009 for about
$80M. If you recall, Lala was doing some innovative things around pricing and service
offerings in the music streaming business, and our own Ed Bott picked it as his favorite
among iTunes alternatives in his article written in April of 2009.
Well, Lala was being so innovative that it scared the hell out of Apple, so the company
simply killed it.
No further development, no integration into iTunes, nada.
While the financial impact of Lala's death is far smaller than any of the mergers and
acquisitions listed in this rogue's gallery, it is by far the worst and most malicious case of
corporate merger infanticide I have ever seen to date.
Apple would late ...
