Ten IT Terms to Watch in 2004

WORDS IN ACTION: Ten IT Terms to Watch in 2004
_____________
2004 outlook: VoIP to rise, Sun to set
By Paul Gillin, TechTarget Editor in Chief

It was a year when the bleeding stopped and the vital signs
stabilized. There were no big bankruptcies, few bold business
initiatives and little new technology to get excited about. But 2003
did give us a few reasons to cheer. Linux had a great year. Wi-Fi
networks got cheap. The biggest tech vendors returned to growth.
Microsoft got serious about security. Smart phones and PDAs kept
alive our lust for new tech.

Have three years of pain taught us a lesson? Nah. We'll just lose our
heads again when The Next Big Thing comes along. That probably won't
be in 2004, but there are a few events and trends that are likely to
keep us interested. Here are ten terms to keep an eye on in 2004:

__________________________________________
TERM: VoIP
http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid7_gci214148,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: This stuff finally works, and with companies
like 3M and IBM making corporate-wide commitments to route voice
traffic using Internet Protocol, the stage is set for this
much-anticipated technology to move into the mainstream. VOIP's
cost-saving benefits will be dwarfed by the technology's potential to
reshape the way organizations communicate. When VoIP finally takes
off, it's gonna be big. And this is the year it takes off.

_________________________________________
TERM: Linux
http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid39_gci212482,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: Linux begins to look like Windows -- SCO is
trying to make you pay to use Linux. Red Hat just toughened up its
license fees, and HP is muttering that it would be a good idea if
users paid more of the bills. See a pattern there? The free ride is
over as the Linux market consolidates and the winners start to charge
for what they used to give away. While Linux will never be as
expensive as Windows, the fees are going to take on more and more of
a Microsoft-ian quality.

_________________________________________
TERM: Sun
http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,,sid9_gci801397,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: Sundown -- My boldest prediction last year
was that IBM would buy Sun. Now I have to wonder why anyone would
want it. This once-proud company increasingly looks like the Digital
Equipment Corp. of the '00s. Low-cost commodities invariably push out
high-ticket specialties, and Solaris is Mercedes in a Toyota market.
Sun may still stake out a profitable position as a boutique
technology supplier, but its days as a market heavyweight are over.

_________________________________________
TERM: offshore outsourcing
http://searchcio.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid19_gci924479,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: China's outsourcing star rises -- The pursuit
of cost savings favors China's rise as an international power in
technology outsourcing. The company already has 400,000 IT
specialists and is undercutting India by a third on outsourcing
contracts. The language barrier will prevent China from becoming a
major business process outsourcing force for some time, but the
country's cheap, educated work force will make it a top destination
for software development projects.

_________________________________________
TERM: CRM
http://searchcrm.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid11_gci213567,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: Siebel becomes acquisition bait -- Could
IBM's partnership with Siebel be a precursor to a Big Blue takeover?
Or will Oracle abandon its pursuit of PeopleSoft and set its sights
on the smaller CRM specialist? One thing is clear: It's going to be
difficult for Siebel to continue on its own. SAP CRM is eating
Siebel's lunch in its core market, and Siebel's commitment to the
hosted software model rings hollow in light of its reliance on
expensive software licenses. Customers should take heart in the fact
that whoever buys Siebel will probably put major stock in keeping
them happy.

_________________________________________
TERM: tablet PC
http://searchmobilecomputing.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid40_gci509982,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: This is the Year of the Tablet -- After
chunking away at tablet computing for about eight years, PC makers
have finally got it figured out. The new models are sleek,
lightweight and gorgeous. Ink capture is the killer app, and
Microsoft has got a hit with OneNote. Tablets are beginning to appear
in the arms of techno-enthusiasts everywhere. From there, it's only a
short hop into the mass market, and this is the breakout year.

_________________________________________
TERM: RFID
http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid7_gci805987,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: RFID catches the hype wave -- It's basically
a bar code on steroids, but RFID technology has the chance to
revolutionize the supply chain. Never mind that real change is years
away, the emergence of a disruptive technology -- any disruptive
technology -- will be celebrated by a media and analyst community
that's starved for something new. Wal-Mart and the Department of
Defense will both require suppliers to use the tiny tags by early
2005. But don't bet on those deadlines to hold. Many small suppliers
can't even spell RFID, much less implement it, and the applications
that take advantage of data always lag behind data collection itself.
RFID will be big because it's a truly disruptive technology. But
don't count on reality to catch up to the hype for years.

_________________________________________
TERM: grid computing
http://searchcio.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid19_gci773157,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: Grids go bust -- Grid computer networks are
hard to build and operate, but you wouldn't know that from the
vendors who are already hyping their products as grid-compatible.
This is a good concept that will become so overused by tech marketers
that it will be meaningless within a year or two. Grids are the
artificial intelligence of the '00s.

_________________________________________
TERM: quality assurance
http://searchcio.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid19_gci816126,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: Microsoft hit with liability suit -- User
outrage at security holes in Microsoft products has grown, despite
Redmond's efforts to address the problem. The battle reaches a fever
pitch in 2004 as a user launches a liability suit at Microsoft for
business damages caused by software flaws. The legal action is
prohibited by the license agreement, of course, but the case makes a
dramatic point that users want software vendors to take more
responsibility for the quality of their products.

_________________________________________
TERM: Wi-Fi
http://searchmobilecomputing.techtarget.com/sDefinition/0,,sid40_gci838865,00.html?track=NL-35

PAUL'S 2004 PREDICTION: The costs of accessing Wi-Fi services will
drop to near zero in many urban locations, as merchants decide that
an Internet connection is a cheap way to keep customers sipping
lattes or munching McNuggets.

Focus on solution !

The Difference Between Focusing on Problems, and Focusing on Solutions:
When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that
the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity. (Ink won't flow down to the writing
surface) .In order to solve this problem, they hired Andersen Consulting
(Accenture today).
It took them one decade and 12 million dollars. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, under water, in practically any
surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to
over 300 degrees C.

The Russians used a pencil..........

Signs of Computer Addiction

People are advised not to spend too much time sitting before computer system because the following things may happen in their future.
1. When asked about a bus schedule, you wonder if it is 16 or 32 bits.
2. When counting objects, 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D..
3. At the superstore, you check to see if a kilogram is 1024 grams, a litre is 1024 mls.
4. When you dream, you are going to dream in 256 palettes of 256 colors.
5. When your wife says "If you don't turn off that damn machine and come to sleep, then I am going to divorce you!", you are going to scream at her for omitting the "else" clause.
6. You try to sleep, and think : sleep(8 * 60 * 60); /* sleep for 8 hours */
7. When you are reading a book, you would look for the scroll bar to get to the next page.
8. If you want to call somebody you pick up the phone and start dialling an IP number...
9. You are going to look for an icon to double-click, to open your bedroom window.
10. When you go to balance your check book, you would discover that you'll be doing the math in octal.
11.You would look for a trash can icon to throw garbage.
12.When you get in the elevator you would double-click the button for the floor you want to go

Hope each one of us will have this in near future.

Tormenting Infoscions

This interesting story of Mental torture by so called men "Driven By Values" and really "Powered By Intellect" as they used it for masterminded and devised mental crucifixion .
The Value driven hero here is Dileep with his Intellectual friend PC. Dileep the sang-froid conspiracy mastermind , managing things is like driving a train ,making people follow his engine as compartments tied to it .Bold ,Quick and Managed as any MIT Sloan scholar which he is not.
Powered by management skills this young man compelled the Intellectual whiz ,the hotshot coder, a maven debugger ,a sensational nerd, man who codes UNIX threads as cool as a dog pissing beneath an electric post generating Pheromones making every other Lady dogs smell his piss, Anders Heijlsberg in the making, PC, an impeccable virtuoso, to device a formula which brings out the grooming they have undergone in Infy. Just an exhibition of hard earned values imparted to them by the Software Phenomenon.
I ,a man wanting to see the biggest investment made by anyone or company in 50 Acres of land in Asia the biggest continent in the world ,the INFOSYS Campus in Electronics city Bangalore , was invited as preplanned to its campus by the Kewl-bandits. at 4 pm on a Saturday.
Taking time out of Saturday mess ,leaving behind scores of work to be done ,i left to the destination dreamed , It took me 2.5 hours time, boarding 2 buses to reach the target. I landed there at 4.03 and called up Mr PC, the man who talks with pentiums doesn't take time to counter human plans.
The aplomb has left his Alcatel Personal Communicator, with the smooth thinker Dilleep, Intrestingly he went to a telephone booth for making records in making phone calls , blasting 200 bucks for single phone call !! . He keeps himself cool by talking everyday to his beloved who never calls him. On the contrary she dials her friends with the Telephone card he has bought for her.
It took 30 minutes for the gentleman manager to pump his muscles riding the cycle to come near the front door , As during those 27 minutes i was seeing, those security men checking even the under clothes of people leaving the campus. Mr Dilleep took me inside and of course the plan started working, Infosys doesnt allow visitors after 4 pm. Oh no ! my long cherished dream of seeing the once best employer of democratic India the Infosys ,shattered like the Colombia. As tactical guru this man blamed all happened because of stupid PC .He made me stand near guard room,which i asked "should i", he said "cool man u can stand here " standing in the kingdom of the billion dollar company whose stakes going up as Shenzou V enjoying the serenity i felt proud. He went to call his friend PC , i was standing inside the walls looking outside how infoscions look others. Seeing how people are going out and coming in . Suddenly a voice came from behind "sir ,get out ". Oh i felt better i would have been killed there. But they called me sir, and then i went out and stood for another 30 minutes ,like standing naked in "Asoka hall" .But i have no tactual perception for them as they work for a company that helps billions of dollars to take a route to this country.

With Regards,
Hki

To keep going on

I must have really missed life, if I had not read this.
These simple quotations, just made me keep going.

Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

Every flower must grow through dirt.

Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it doesn't get you anywhere.

Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.

Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars


The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.

In the book of life, the answers aren't in the back.

We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give.

Life isn't a matter of milestones, but of moments.

And in the end it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
