Apple and US labor

Apple and US labor

By Vinnie Mirchandani on January 24, 2012

Steve Jobs supposedly told President Obama ““Those (iPhone) jobs aren’t coming back,” according to this article in the New York Times.  Apple’s labor in China is also showing up in much hand-wringing in the Presidential race. Let’s explore a few other dimensions of the issue: The Chinese labor is a small part of the iPhone […]

New York Times Initiates Digital Subscriptions

New York Times Initiates Digital Subscriptions

By Denis Pombriant on March 31, 2011

by  recursion_see_recursion The New York Times began its digital subscription service about a week ago.  While occasional readers will be able to continue reading a limited number of articles per month (20), the paper is phasing out its free for all approach to on line publishing, about time too.  Home delivery subscribers will get digital […]

The Apple of the eye of the New York Times

The Apple of the eye of the New York Times

By Vinnie Mirchandani on November 11, 2010

A couple of weeks ago I highlighted how mainstream media like the New York Times, Fortune etc write overwhelmingly and fawningly about Apple, Google, Facebook and other consumer tech and largely ignore enterprise tech. One exceptional journalist I identified was Steve Lohr at the New York Times. He often tackles complex tech topics and enterprise […]

NY Times Borrowed Sharma’s Idea

NY Times Borrowed Sharma’s Idea

By Denis Pombriant on October 18, 2010

Update: Sam Grobart of the New York Times called to say that he had no prior knowledge of Anshu Sharma’s very similar blog post before he wrote his.  He seems like an upstanding guy and I am inclined to believe him.  As I write below, you can’t expect to have infinite rights to a story […]

Setting the Record Straight: the After-life of an Article. Oracle, HP, SAP, Journalism, Conflict of Interest–You Name it.

Setting the Record Straight: the After-life of an Article. Oracle, HP, SAP, Journalism, Conflict of Interest–You Name it.

By Zoli Erdos on October 12, 2010

This is just a quick Editorial note to draw attention to the very significant piece Josh Greenbaum published last Saturday.  You may have missed it – who reads blogs on a weekend? But the post had significant after-life, including an Editorial correction appended to the original New York Time article that started it all. Worth […]

Sean Parker, Leo Apotheker and lazy journalism

By Vinnie Mirchandani on October 3, 2010

The College of Cardinals was sending out dark smoke signals for weeks. But when the white smoke finally came out and the bells chimed announcing a consensus candidate, the press went “whoa!” They should have been in Rome covering the Papal Conc…

Tied Up?  Dragon Naturally Speaking Comes to Rescue… or Not?

Tied Up? Dragon Naturally Speaking Comes to Rescue… or Not?

By Zoli Erdos on August 16, 2010

Nuance released version 11 of Dragon Naturally Speaking, their voice recognition / dictation software.  Below is a rather unusual review by David Pogue of The New York Times: On a more serious note – I’m a really poor typist,  my blogging is hampered by the slowness of typing, and there are all those situations when […]

The Headline as Content

The Headline as Content

By Jeff Nolan on July 11, 2010

One of the challenges in deciphering online news is that a catchy headline is often peddled instead of the actual story, something fully on display today in a NYTimes article.

As an exercise to demonstrate this, read the headline below and stop to consider your emotional and intellectual response:

“Wall St. Hiring in Anticipation of an Economic Recovery”

Woman in High Tech & The New York Times Out of the Loop

Woman in High Tech & The New York Times Out of the Loop

By Zoli Erdos on April 18, 2010

Out of the loop is the original title of a New York Times article discussing how difficult it is for women entrepreneurs to get funded, or generally to get into the management ranks in business.  A title that backfires … but you’ll have to wait to see why. The first case discussed @ the NYT […]

Reflections Of A Digital Immigrant Gone Semi-Native: The Sad Tale Of Charles Phillips

Reflections Of A Digital Immigrant Gone Semi-Native: The Sad Tale Of Charles Phillips

By Naomi Bloom on January 22, 2010

Yesterday an Oracle story broke big-time, and it wasn’t about Fusion application delivery dates, pricing, or how much work it would take to get from EBS or PeopleSoft HCM to Fusion HCM apps.  It also wasn’t about Oracle giving its installed base a break on their maintenance fees or committing to keep most of Sun’s […]
