Digital Life

I am almost on the verge of discontinuing this blog as I have a new website Digital Life. That's the site I'll be running my show from now on. Feel free to visit the site.

What Have I been Upto

Trust me you don't wanna know. But if you still insist, this is what I am into:

I am trying to find when the fourteenth canonical root is highly significant and shows that a set of predictors including size of house, purchase frequency of cake mix, and number of times you brush your teeth per day is related to age of oldest child living at home, laundry detergent preference, and frequency of extra-marital relations?

eTelemetry

eTelemetry maps the "social graph" within an enterprise/organization/institute. Want to know who the movers and shakers are within your company? Ask the graph, not them.

How does it work?

Basically, eTelemetry monitors and analyzes email, IM, and web traffic. Through this intelligence it can help an enterprise to determine the networks that exist within its walls. Who is the go-to person for certain issues? Who are the people that veryone respects to answer certain types of questions? Who has the most contact with potential partners? And, though Telemetry doesn't necessarily pitch this use, who are the weak links in the corporate food chain tat can be RIF'd as necessary, i.e., those who do little and are relied on even less?


I'm willing to bet that in most companies the business development person has no clue how much activity is happening between the company and the prospective partner. eTelemetry's solutions would reveal these connections. Perhaps my company wants to do business with Oracle, for example. What if I knew that my developers actively collaborate with developers from Oracle on various open-source projects? That's power.

May be Google should buy the company :)
