Finally, a Proper Study to Scientifically Show Telecommuting is More Productive
"Finally, a Proper Study to Scientifically Show Telecommuting is More Productive
There've been studies into the benefits of telecommuting before, but they were usually lacking in certain areas, which resulted in the findings being less than scientific (and thus not super trustworthy). This time a Stanford University study used a Chinese travel agency with over 12,000 employees as its base, and concluded that working remotely actually does noticeably increase performance."

"Wolverton published his findings about using plants to improve indoor air quality in dozens of technical papers while with the Space Agency and as a simple consumer-friendly book, “How to Grow Fresh Air: 50 Houseplants That Purify Your Home or Office.” In it, he explains, in easy-to-understand terms, how plants emit water vapor that creates a pumping action to pull contaminated air down around a plant’s roots, where it is then converted into food for the plant."

Web 2.0 Trend: No Cost, No Login, No Install « Martin Winer
"With the advent of Web 2.0 we’re witnessing a new movement, that of the no cost, no install, and no log in software."
This article deserves some link love. A nice collection of no cost, no install, no log in software. I love that. It should be an acronym. I suggest NOCIL (no cost, no install, no login).

How the Web Was Won: Entertainment & Culture: vanityfair.com
"Fifty years ago, in response to the surprise Soviet launch of Sputnik, the U.S. military set up the Advanced Research Projects Agency. It would become the cradle of connectivity, spawning the era of Google and YouTube, of Amazon and Facebook, of the Drudge Report and the Obama campaign. Each breakthrough—network protocols, hypertext, the World Wide Web, the browser—inspired another as narrow-tied engineers, long-haired hackers, and other visionaries built the foundations for a world-changing technology."

Is User-Generated Content Out? | Newsweek Technology | Newsweek.com
"By any name, the current incarnation of the Internet is known for giving power to the people. Sites like YouTube and Wikipedia collect the creations of unpaid amateurs while kicking pros to the curb—or at least deflating their stature to that of the ordinary Netizen. But now some of the same entrepreneurs that funded the user-generated revolution are paying professionals to edit and produce online content."

About the Show : Download : Science Channel
"Download: The True Story of the Internet is about a revolution -- the technological, cultural, commercial and social revolution that has radically changed our lives.
And for the first time on television, we hear how it happened from the men and women who made it possible.
Download is hosted by technology journalist John Heileman ... He's an edgy, combative, hi-energy New Yorker who never takes anything at face value. He's also a personal friend of most of Silicon Valley's most important characters and he revels in craziness of it all. After all, this is a story in which 20-year-olds become overnight billionaires, create, destroy and re-create more wealth in ten years then human race has ever seen, and still struggle to get a date."
An excellent TV show about the growth of the Internet.
