I'm glad that I'm not the only person who just doesnt get Twitter. I find facebook status updates much easier to use, and actually the site a lot more interesting. The navigation in Twitter confuses the hell out of me, how do you find friends, it all looks so messy. Can anyone shed some light on this?

A growing number of people seem to have some very grave concerns about Facebook privacy and who can actually access your information. With people filling their profile pages with everything from our latest drunken escapades to their home phone numbers, the concern is that not many people realise just who is looking at their profile.

Lexdon is reporting that Microsoft is forming a stronger relationship with Indian development powerhouse, Infosys. Im sure Im not the only one who has some big concerns with the level of quality churned out by the likes of Infosys and Wipro, and cant help wondering if things are set to get worse.

Its almost becoming a joke now, it seems that companies are completely unable to keep their customers information safe. This comes as the news that Skipton, a UK building society has misplaced customer information.The real question is why the government or whoever isn't fining these companies.

GlaxoSmithKline seems to have revamped their website. Interestingly theyve added an Ajax story browser to the main page. The site itself tries its best to make you think they are a soft company, but in truth I imagine they are quite opposite, afterall they charge people to stay alive.Another interesting point is the site is littered with spelling mistakes!

Orange is without a doubt, the worst broadband provider I have ever come across.To begin with, some bright spark decided to move technical support to India.

It never ceases to amaze me. InfoSys has just announced record profits as more companies offshore work to them.There is a huge lack of quality in work produced by companies like Wipro and InfoSys, afterall their job is to churn things out as fast as possible.Its also becoming more of a myth that offshoring is cheaper, prices have risen dramatically, and when you factor in the time it takes to

TrustE... not worth the paper its printed on.I've always been skeptical of the truste certification program, mainly because its founding members are a bunch of big companies and the organization can hardly claim to be impartial., and who enjoy some good old back patting.But what has made me even more furious is the pricing. A truste seal costs over $10,000 per year! This incredible pricing

Its nice to see something like a Corporate Citizenship award, but to be honest does anyone actually think that companies do nice things because they want to? Most of the time they do them simply because it makes them look good. Imagine the mass of publicity that a company like Microsoft received when it funded an AIDS vaccined.
