Well, a sore throat yester turned int a cough today...And I feel miserable.

Luckily, I still have some meds from the last time I had a cold...so I am O.K. for now.

As I have been sleeping most of the day, I missed the announcement of Google confirmation of their pending IPO. I hope it doesn't ruin Google. Being beholden to your shareholders these days makes for bad social decisions by companies it seems. What they fail to realize is that a company is part of a community, and thus has responsablities to said community. Excessive outsourcing harms the community that grew and nurtured the company. I define excessive outsourcing as outsourcing that doesn't help the company provide quality support and capablities...conversly, good outsourcing is something like running a support center in India to help cover some "second shift", and all "third shift" support calls. It's had to get people who are willing to start work late, and work until the morning...so move the jobs of that shift to a place where it makes more sense, the opposite side of the planet.

But, hey, that's just my opinion.
