Jayant writes, I am a technical writer from India. I just moved to the UK and find the scenario very different from India. Here technical writing jobs are not easy to come by – I understand this is due to the recession. I also have found my desire for technical writing waning away a bit.

He’s one of my favorite philosophers.” So I asked, What do you take away from him? “I take away,” Obama answered in a rush of words, “the compelling idea that there’s serious evil in the world, and hardship and pain.

Luckily, a schoolmate of mine (though of a younger batch), who works for Friendster Philippines has posted in our internal Yahoo Groups the official statement of Friendster regarding the “missing” friends issue (and the other issues related with it): There have been text messages going around in PH, saying that there was a virus that wiped out the accounts in our database, and thus causing people’s friends to be lost. To help address our users’ ...

On Friday, I gave the third in a series of talks I have given over the last two weeks or so as the crisis has played out. Below are some notes from Friday's discussion. ...
