BlackBerry Losing Its Grip On The Market Share?
2012-01-31 11:57:00 Once, BlackBerry was the default choice of enterprise customers for their communication needs. But, that is changing fast, especially in the established markets like North America and Europe, according to a New York Times report. Apple has captured a significant market share from Reserach In Motion (the makers of BlackBerry) in North America, where it once was a dominant player. Samsung is slated to do the same in the other established market of RIM i.e. Europe with its Android operating system. BlackBerry is still going strong in developing markets. But, it is finding it difficult to hold on to its market share in more developed countries. While Apple Inc’s iOS and Google Inc’s Android operating systems have captured a lot of imagination, RIM has failed to innovate in recent years. Hence, many enterprise customers are switching from BlackBerry to other platforms. According to a recent global survey on information workers by research firm Forrester, 27% smartphon...

Getting Your Share From China's Movie Box Office. Good Luck With That.
2012-01-08 16:18:00 As regular readers know, there is nothing I like more than being able to create a post straight from what goes into my email box. I am able to do that today by way of having been cc'ed on a long email discussion between our Beijing-based attorney, Mathew Alderson (who does quite a bit of China film law) and Rob Buckham, of Oceana Films China. The discussion started when Mr. Buckham wrote Mathew regarding foreign companies sharing in China movie box office receipts. Buckham: Quick question. In one of your blog posts, you say that "Insufficient attention is given to the issue of garnering a share of the box office." We naturally assume we will be "ripped off" for any box office receipts in China . . . . Alderson: That is a sound assumption. Buckham: … and therefore would normally structure the deals so that we would get any dollars we actually expect from China (ever) to be cash up front from the Chinese participants. Alderson: That is the b...

Linkedin’s Share Button Trumps Other Social Network Share Buttons
2011-12-16 13:26:00 Linkedin is one of the big three of Social Networks, the other being Facebook and Twitter. These are the original services that made social media what it is today. But the size of these services is clearly not proportionate. With some 800 million users, Facebook is the largest social network on this planet followed by 300 million users on Twitter. Linkedin follows them at 120 million.The reason for Linkedin’s comparatively low user base is the fact that it is a social network for professionals and that limits the crowd as most people are not really into professional networking, but the LinkedIn’s numbers are growing. Linkedin recently opened up a major R&D centrein Bangalore. According to Clearspring, a company which makes the AddThis tool for webpages, Linkedin’s share button has a disproportionately greater power than its ‘Like’ and ‘Tweet’ competitors. How can this happen? The answer is simple, LinkedIn’s users really do click on items their colleagues and pr...

Airtel, Vodafone Gain Market Share In The Indian Telecom Sector
2011-07-19 07:37:00 2011 has been an extremely eventful year in the Indian Telecom Sector. Two factors have come into play that have forced most operators to pull up their socks and innovate. Firstly, Mobile Number Portability or MNP has ensured that no provider can get away with exploitative plans because customers are free to switch without giving up their number. Secondly, the launch of 3G in India had operators scrambling for key licenses to offer 3G services. They then had to successfully deploy the services over the areas. Then they had to sign agreements between themselves to share their 3G spectrum. The efforts of the operators can be seen in this month’s Cellular Operators Association of India  (COAI) Report on the state of the Indian Telecom Sector which can be downloaded from here. [Compilation Courtsey: www.pluggd.in] As you can see, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone top the list with 28.26% and 23.63% Market Shares. Vodafone, however, grew at a faster rate, with an increase of 1.50...

Why Do Hospital's And Doctor's Offices Refuse To Share Patient Hi
2011-06-25 09:26:00 Since 2005, my father has been dealing with Lupus. It's a disease that has no plan. It tears you apart in large and in small ways.

On Fox's House, Lupus is often the word used for the mystery cases House and his team have when they can't find a solution right away.A particular problem that I have with hospitals large and small, coming from my experience of taking my father around to his various appointments, is the number of times that we have to give X-Ray's, Cat Scans, MRI's and blood tests with each...

PGA Tour players share golf tips in Men's Fitness
2011-04-15 23:06:00 Although I rarely have reason to flip through testoterone-laden magazines such as Men's Fitness, after hearing that a section was dedicated to improving aspects of the golf game, I took a look. Yes, there are plenty of "buff" males in the May 2011 issue but I kept focused on the task at hand, thumbing through the pages until I came across the golf tips. After passing segments entitled "Gut Check", "Fast Lane" and the "Cardio Workout from Hell", I came upon Rickie Fowler dressed in bright green golf clothes and three pages jam-packed with golf exercises, tips and tricks designed to transform "lifters" into "players". In MF Golf '11's "Own the Green", Scott Riehl offers up a golf-specific training routine to help improve balance while working the torso. There are also quick fixes if you're tight or erratic.

InMobi Lures Developers With Higher Rev Share – Announces World Devel
2011-03-07 06:12:00 What stands between InMobi and true global domination of the mobile advertising space is the lack of a strong foothold in the US markets. Their strongest competitor being Admob which is now a Google owned company. Inorder to change this InMobi seems to be pumping in money to acquire developers by giving out revenue shares that are higher than the industry standard of 60:40. The following is what InMobi announced via its blog: Clearly the above is aimed at getting on board mobile app developers that have a sizable traffic to their apps. Its also aimed at making developers shift from Admob. Check the graph below to understand how Inmobi trails behind Admob in the US market. All in all it does seem that they are gunning for Admob’s market share. It will be interesting to see if this gets a reaction from Admob in any way. Whatever the case may be the developers are definitely laughing their way to the bank. And this will only benefit the burgeoning mobile apps space. Looking For...

Facebook Decides Not To Share Addresses And Mobile Numbers..At Least For No
2011-01-19 11:25:00 Last week, Facebook committed another privacy faux pas – yes another. In an update on its developer blog Facebook announced that it would be making a user’s address and mobile phone number accessible to developers. While it did go on to clarify that this would not grant access to a friend’s information, it said that a developer would have to request for this information specifically through the ’standard’ mechanism. (Image Courtesy) While the social network believed that this would result in a more seamless user experience, where such data would be ready on the fly, there were plenty of reasons to be concerned. In a section of a post batting for this change InsideFacebook argued that sharing addresses would let ecommerce sites pre populate address fields and mobile numbers could be used to enhance communication with friends. It also suggested electronic business cards, text message notifications, discovery etc as possible applications of this sensitiv...

Google Unwilling To Share Encryption Keys With Security Agencies
2010-12-16 09:45:00 With the entire hoopla surrounding Government of India’s attempts to gain rights to accessing encrypted information for security purposes, this story seems to be taking a similar path. Google representatives have said that sharing encryption keys of Gmail with the Government is not going to happen citing user privacy. Ofcourse, they did go onto say that they would do so “in the event of a large-scale risk to human life and property”. Google India’s Head of Products, Vinay Goel mentioned that Google Inc is governed by US laws and providing real-time access to communication sent over Gmail will be an issue. There are some fundamental issues that continue to hover with this news item. WATBlog featured a post yesterday about how the Department of Telecom was looking towards the US to tackle this issue of monitoring. It is surprising that the Government has to repeatedly continue tapping communication companies for access to their data because of staff incompeten...

2010-12-14 15:58:00 As a child, I can't say that I ever knew hunger. I got hungry for sure. But I never knew the deep feeling of being hungry and knowing I would not be able to satisfy my growling stomach. My parents did not always have it easy and I can see there were times when budgets and expenses were calculated to the penny but one thing my brothers and myself never questioned to have or not was food. If times were a bit strained, we, as children, never knew it. I just noticed we ate more eggs throughout the week and lots more soups. I never put two and two together because I never had to. There was always food in my plate. Some children don't have this chance. Some children go hungry on a daily basis. My parents knew that. They made sure we did too and very early on in our lives made sure we knew the purpose of charity. We did it silently. Charity is an act that comes from inside of you. It does not need to be advertised or require praises. Just do. We know what it's like to hit hard times and...
