   Is IT Offshore Outsourcing to Grow in Popularity?
   No wonder, that more and more American executives try to outsource at least one job offshore, which is constantly performed in a company.Any firm, employing it offshore outsourcing may save from 25 to 50 percent of its work force costs by means of delegating jobs to countries , where the average rate of salaries is much lower. At the present moment, most of the IT jobs are sent to India with its great number of IT specialists. The countries like China, Ireland, Germany, Russia, the Philippines, and Canada also add their share to the list of it offshore outsourcing countries. Advocates of it offshore outsourcing claim that the benefits of it offshore outsourcing outweigh the disadvantages of the activity for the USA economy.According to the Gartner report, one third of American companies, who presently use the services provided by it offshore outsourcing companies, plan to increase their it offshore outsourcing budget by 50% next year.Although highly lucrative for domestic businesses, it offshore outsourcing has a negative impact on the increasing number of unemployed people. Several American states intend to adopt certain limitations on it offshore outsourcing. Experts have fears, that when the majority of technological jobs move outside the borders of the country, the deep, profound knowledge which comes from coding applications and handling technological tasks, as well as most of the technological innovations can also
   This is a "full level" RSS template. Here we add the enclosure command for PodCasting. My previous article had the basic bare-bones template and the full template with the CDATA construct. Now we will have a template for Podcasting or Videocasting.

   You can easily copy and paste this into a template. If you are not a techie and dealing with XML for the first time, use a decent text only editor, unless you can use FrontPage or DreamWeaver or a dedicated XML editor. Be careful of any extra charcters that you may sneak in with your typing, and remember not to touch the opening or closing brackets. If you do not know what you are doing do NOT touch the first three lines. The line beginning with the "channel" element is where you should begin to substitute the information on your feed.

   Below we have two items in this channel. You can of course add as many items as your heart desires. Just keep on adding the entire section of beginning and ending with

   <item></item> and filling in the information.

   Just to remind you. The enclosure command consists of three parts:

   1. url - The URL of the actual enclosure.
   2. length - The size in bytes and not an estimate but a total size
   3. type - A standard MIME type, e.g. Audio, Video, Text etc. A list and explanation of standard MIME types can be found here - http://www.fileformat.info/info/mimetype/standard.htm

   By the way. We are keeping RandyPandy's Perfumery, but since his wife Sandy loves Janis Joplin the enclosure command will contain Summertime from Janis. Hope you don't mind!

   First a template with information and then a template without. (The editing software forces an empty line between each command however in your Feed you should not have any empty lines. Just delete the lines with no information if you copy & paste)

      Certification of Your Profession - A Step in Personal Branding?
      Much in business -- as on the stock exchange -- moves in trends. Not forever though. Some trends will fade away when others amplify. And certain important incidents may cause new trends to start or others to finish abruptly. Certification is also an phenomenon that is supported by a trend. Certification has an extended use. Most products should be certified, which mean that they agree with a certain standard. This is a best practice in the food sector, where serious damage could be done when the product is not certified. The certification demonstrates an certain quality level.The trend that drives certification is a trend that is based on fear and the increasing demand for security. All though that we are willing to take risks, we want to secure our lives at the same time. And companies are often the first to stick to the save way in which case certification could be valued high. Certification of professionals is common practice in many areas – in law, medicine or healthcare, architecture and construction and other areas where safety and precision is involved.In the Netherlands there are two relatively new institutions that are concerned with certification of information architects, or architectural professionals. (The first is ERIA the other SCIA). The information architect is a relatively new profession in which the architect is dedicated to design and advice about new information systems. This is a highly influencing role which demands some indication of quality of the person that will ex

         Put It On The Internet-You'll Make $1,000,000
         Have you ever been talking to friends when someone mentions their idea for this or that and someone blurts out the wonderful option of putting said product or service on the internet and then just sitting back and making a ton of money. Most everyone has experienced a situation similar to this right? Or at least thought about it? I think there's a huge misconception out there that a person can just put a product or service on the internet and bam… make money.Well, if you've done any research on this subject (that subject of course being making money on the internet) you realize that this isn't at all the case. It isn't as easy as just putting a product 'out there' and making money. I sure wish it was but unfortunately we live on the planet earth, and it doesn't work that way. Think about it, once your site or product is 'out there' how are people going to find it? I've learned from experience that there's not some internet fairy out there flying around making millions of people aware of whatever it is that you're offering. I used to think this fairy was real, but now I realize that it's not. There's much more too it. Making money on the internet with whatever product or service you want to offer requires work.The first thing that has to be done is for you to figure out how you are going to drive traffic to your website. There are many ways to drive traffic to your product or website, but very few are free. Most options will cost you money and what does the fact that people want mon

            Corporate Performance Management 101
            Evaluating the performance of people, groups, and organizations is an ordinary practice of all societies. In some cases, the appraisal processes are planned and officially sanctioned. On the other hand, they may be an informal and essential part of everyday activities. Corporate performance management forms a major part of managerial staffing. It is the basis for determining whether certain employees are capable of being promoted or not.Corporate performance management is also an essential aspect of management development, for the reason that if the strengths and weaknesses of managers are not identified, then it is difficult to conclude whether development efforts are aimed in the right direction or not.Appraisal constitutes a very important part of a system of managing. Determining how well managers plan, systematize, staff, guide and control is actually the only way to make certain that those occupying managerial positions are managing effectively. Efficient performance appraisal should be planned in such a way that organizations can be familiar with the legitimate desire of employees for growth in their professions.A method to amalgamate organizational demands and individual requirements is by way of career management that can be an element of corporate performance management. Performance appraisal is a tool to assess the behavior of employees in the place of work. This normally includes both the quantitative as well as the qualitative aspects of job performance.

               What is an Extranet?
               An extranet is an extension of your company's internal network that allows outside users to provide and access information in a secure environment. Like an intranet, it is web browser based, making information available on any computer without any special equipment. However, an extranet does require extensive security and may need special software to provide user authentication and to encrypt data. Extranets are used to extend your business applications to suppliers, clients, vendors, customers or other businesses. They make sharing data simpler and more cost effective. Extranets have even allowed companies to save money from an unexpected source -- allowing employees to telecommute. As a result, a company can save on the cost of maintaining on-premises offices and equipment for these employees. Some uses of extranets include: Supporting day-to-day collaboration by service companies who need to share and organize documents with their clientsExchanging billing invoices and payments through Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)Sharing online catalogs with suppliers, vendors and customers to eliminate printing costsEntering into joint ventures with other businessesCollaborating with other companies to develop training materialsProviding online services to customers One of the best known extranets in the word is the UPS package tracking system.
