Internet generation jurors used to screens
11/08/2008, 20:01 |The Lord Chief Justice of the UK legal system has opined that “it might be better to present information for young jurors on screens because that is how they were used to digesting information.” The Telegraph reported the concern in an article titled Web-savvy young make bad jurors because they cannot listen, says Lord Chief Justice. Here is more from the article:
Currently information is provided on screens to jurors, such as in complex fraud trials, but “not without difficulty and with great expense”, he said.
He added: “What about the defendant’s oral testimony and child witness complaining of an indecent assault which the defendant adamantly denies?
“What process aimed at finding the truth between them, and enabling a jury to decide where the truth lies, will be in place in 25 years time? What will happen to our oral tradition? Should it, will it, be forced to change?”
Lord Judge also conceded that it was inevitable some jurors defy a judge’s direction and make “private enquiries” into a case using the internet. In one case a juror went online using a Blackberry-device during a rape case, causing the conviction to be quashed.
Lord Judge said that he did not have solutions to these concerns. But he suggested that in the future the courts system must be “capable of development and adaptable for the future”.

Canadian Call Center Woes
01/01/1970, 01:00 |Here's an article from the Edmonton Journal about the closure of a Toronto Dominion Bank call center in the city, for a net loss of about 140 jobs.
Though this is a Canadian company shutting down a Canadian call center, there have been other Canadian call center closures that can be laid at the foot of the weak U.S. dollar.
Outsourcing to Canada (an important destination in the so-called "near-shore" outsourcing model) is no longer saving U.S. companies money due to the unfavorable exchange rates for the U.S. dollar.
A recent Datamonitor report covered on TMCnet by associate editor Patrick Barnard revealed that companies are truly starting to pack up Canadian operations. The most notable U.S. outsourcer to do so thus far is Cincinnati-based Convergys Corporation.
The Datamonitor report also cites a waning of interest in Canada in relation to the increasing interest in having Spanish-speaking agents on staff for the growing consumer base of American Hispanics. (Canada does not offer a labor force with a high percentage of Spanish-speakers.)

11/19/2008, 23:26 |
Among the titles Nintendo highlighted during E3 this year, "Animal Crossing: City Folks" stood out. Previously a bestselling franchise on the Nintendo GameCube, the updated Wii version, Nintendo said, would take advantage of the console's Internet connection and new Wii Speak microphone accessory to connect gamers with other players near and far. The purported ability to take part in voice chats while interacting with other players in the game sounded intriguing; however, after playing the game I am more frustrated than impressed.

Nokia Still Leading In SmartPhone Sales
09/08/2008, 21:25 |Nokia has remained ahead in sales of SmartPhones, but Research In Motion is growing faster. SmartPhones are important to both companies because they tend to be very profitable.
Still, according to Gartner, Nokia is still by far the market leader with 47.5% of the smartphone market on 15.2m units sold to users. However, its market share has dropped from 50.8% in the same quarter last year.
Research in Motion (RIM) has done well with BlackBerry sales growing by 126.4% to 5.6m units, year over year, and it has now overtaken Windows Mobile.
Apple is also gaining ground on Nokia in the segment.
