Today is Friday, so I will publish an article that has been sitting on my hard disk for some time.
It is about the future of outsourcing, now that our communication technology allows moderately reliable long-distance, high-speed communication worldwide.
My inspiration? Well, my own past experiences as a consultant, shuttled around sometimes to sit idle and wait, and activities in outsourcing and for outsourcing companies, plus experiments over the last few years in using remote tools (Skype and others) to deliver management consulting and startup support services.
And, for the “avatar” part, a posting on Facebook by IEEE, announcing an article to be published in the association’s official magazine, Spectrum, on physical avatars.
