"Let your tears come. Let them water your soul."
Eileen Mayhew
Dear Vorticians,
This week, in the VORTEX Blog, I've covered the topics below. I
hope you'll read them and share your thoughts, either by using
the feedback mechanism on the site or by e-mailing me at
mailto:jgallant@vortex.net. I've also included links here to a
couple of stories I think you'll find interesting.
Bernie Ebbers cries for himself and cries alone, 07/14/05
Bernie Ebbers is going to jail for a very long time. When
sentence was passed on him in a federal court house, he wept
silently, a scene pitiful enough - almost - to soften your heart.
But Ebbers cried only for himself and his family. Where were the
tears for the real victims of his gargantuan fraud?

VORTEX 2005: Setting the IT Agenda
Breakthrough to Value
Oct. 24-26 at the Palace Hotel, San Francisco
*********************************************************
Since its emergence during the Internet boom, Cisco has been a
leader in finding breakthrough applications for the Internet. Two
top leaders share where the company is focused today. Sue
Bostrom, is driving the application of IT to Cisco's core
interactions, focusing on moving IT from a transaction-oriented
to an interaction-oriented service. Randy Pond oversees key
productivity-improvement initiatives in manufacturing, logistics,
and customer support. In this area, Cisco is working to capture
domain knowledge into IT systems, and thereby free up their most
experienced people for more value-adding tasks.
