The next big
craze. . . Homeshoring?!?
A report released Tuesday from research firm IDC says a number of companies are
turning to a new method to meet call center challenges: getting workers to
handle calls from home.
One Minneapolis software development and technology consulting company, InSite
Group, has rejected international offshoring in favor of homeshoring, recruiting
programmers from rural South Dakota.

Macworld. . .
Finally starts Today!
Today we'll finally find out what Steve Jobs has up his sleeve. Reports have
ranged from Apple cell phones, flash-based iPods, $500 Macintoshes, etc. More
tomorrow.
Windows Media
Format. . . Half the Carbs, Twice the Taste
Well, not actually carbs but half the size and twice the quality. Starting
today I'm offering the SoftwareLand.org podcast feeds in Windows Media format as
well as mp3.
For those of us, like me, who listen to podcasts primarily on my Windows laptop
or on a WMA compatible device, like my iPaq 6315, I now offer higher fidelity
audio in the smaller files.
