It's Time to Consider Human Capital Again

Thu, 17 May 2012 07:45:00 EDT

Throughout history there has been a cycle that ebbs and flows where new technology makes production more efficient and reduces the need for manpower in a particular space, thus forcing those in charge into the difficult position of deciding who stays and who goes. This is normally replaced by an uptake in needs for employees elsewhere, and eventually by expansion of the original vertical market, a return to labor-heavy workloads. This cycle has existed (in a variety of forms) for ages. With a crossbow, less skill and more bodies were needed to field an army. With early guns, more skill and less bodies were needed. The cycle goes around again. The same is true of any marketplace where technology can help improve efficiencies. In the case of farming, fewer small farms and an increasing number of massive farms with staff no larger than the small farms whose land the large ones take up. The reason being technology improving the rate of all the jobs that are required on a farm.

Kodak Introduces the ESP 1.2 & 3.2 All-in-One Printers and New Pic Flick HD App for iPad

Wed, 16 May 2012 10:42:00 EDT

London, UK, May 16 - Continuing to offer consumers a no-compromise choice in home printers, Kodak today introduced the KODAK ESP 1.2 and ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printers combining advanced features, quality and affordability. Offering more ways to connect and print from mobile devices, Kodak also revealed its new KODAK Pic Flick HD App[1], which lets consumers create personalised photo cards, collages and prints on an iPad, and send them to their KODAK Printer.

The ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printer is the latest addition to Kodak's award-winning inkjet printer portfolio. With a refreshed and modern design, it is targeted to photo-centric consumers and families who want great value, quality and simplicity. It offers Kodak's signature easy Wi-Fi set-up and a 6.1cm colour touchscreen for effortless navigation and a better 'walk up and print' experience. The ESP 1.2 All-in-One Printer provides consumers with an easy way to print and save. It too offers effortless Wi-Fi set up and a 3.8cm intuitive touchframe interface for quick navigation making it simple to print, copy and scan.

With Kodak's leading image science technology and proprietary pigment-based inks, consumers get sharp text documents and brilliant photos that dry instantly, are smudge, water and fade resistant, and last a lifetime[2], along with the lowest total ink replacement cost[3] and lowest average cost per page in the industry[4].

Consumers can print on the go from their smartphone, tablet or computer using Google Cloud Print and KODAK Email Print Service[5]. Kodak is now offering consumers the ability to customise their printer's email address. Consumers can also save time with additional advanced features like smart sensor technology that predicts supplies and time needed to complete a job and automatically adjusts printer settings based on paper size and type.

"Our newest printers and mobile app speaks to Kodak's commitment to deliver a print experience that meets the needs of today's consumers, whether they are at home or away from home," said Bob Ohlweiler, Vice President and General Manager, Consumer Business KODAK EAMER. "The new ESP 1.2 and 3.2 printers offer the value and ease you would expect from KODAK, with no trade-off on quality and performance. When it comes to printing photos, Kodak's vision is to deliver solutions that make it easy and fun to print personalised photo products at home. With this in mind, the new KODAK Pic Flick HD App enables customers to print straight from their iPad and thus do more with their photos".

Coming in June, the free KODAK Pic Flick HD App for iPad lets consumers create personalised photo cards, collages and prints, with the ability to add captions and speech bubbles. For photo prints, KODAK Technology identifies the colours in the photo and automatically generates matching borders for prints and collages, perfect for framing.

The Pic Flick HD App joins the KODAK Pic Flick App for photo printing from smartphones and tablets[6], the KODAK Document Print App for ANDROID devices[7], and the KODAK Photo Collage Print App on FACEBOOK, the first of its kind on the site.

Kodak has also introduced a useful new service in the UK to help people save even more time and money when it comes to replacing ink. Kodak's new ink subscription service means you never have to run out of ink again, as you can schedule an automatic delivery of ink straight to your home monthly or quarterly. Shipping is free and an email notification alerts customers seven days prior to shipment, enabling you to cancel, defer or change shipping options easily.

Available in June, the ESP 1.2 and ESP 3.2 All-in-One Printers will retail for £69 and £79 MSRP respectively.

HTC One V: Two Week Usage Review

Wed, 16 May 2012 04:44:00 EDT

I finally gave up on the Android dead end (no ICS upgrade) that was my Galaxy S i9003 and decided to jump to the ICS bandwagon. The only options for an out of the box ICS experience in India at this time are the HTC duo – One X & One V. Of these, the One X was beyond my budget, and so it was a pretty simple decision to go for the One V in the end. Reviews have been pretty positive, and I’m throwing in my 2 cents based on a 2 weeks of usage experience that wouldn’t have shown up in initial reviews. A caveat on my usage experience – I use the One V (and the Galaxy S before it) primarily as a mobile internet device (mails, browsing, e-commerce, social networking etc.) rather than for phone calls.

Areas that could be affected include financial services, health care, online retail and marketing, and social media.

Virtual Speech Center Releases a Multiple Meanings iPad App for Speech Language Pathologists

Wed, 16 May 2012 03:00:00 EDT

Burbank, CA, May 16, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Virtual Speech Center Inc., the provider of mobile applications for speech therapy, announced today the release of Multiple Meanings Library, an iPad application available for download on Apple’s iTunes App store.

The Multiple Meanings Library was created by a certified speech and language pathologist for students ages 5–15 who struggle with oral and written comprehension of words with multiple meanings.

Having knowledge of multiple meanings is critical for both oral and written communication and a successful education. Children are exposed to words that have multiple meanings on a daily basis at school and social settings. Students are expected to access their lexical dictionaries quickly enough to accurately respond to a teacher’s directions or questions; however, sometimes the teacher’s directions or explanations may contain words that have more than one meaning, making it very difficult for children with limited vocabulary knowledge to understand.

The Multiple Meanings Library can be used for students with:

- Receptive/expressive language disorders
- Word-finding problems
- Learning disorders
- Autism
- Specific language -learning disorders, etc.

The Multiple Meanings Library allows students to practice multiple meanings in the following five different types of activities:

- Auditory bombardment
- Definitions
- Picture identification
- Fill-in
- Make up sentences (with audio recording feature)

To install the Multiple Meanings Library application, please visit the Apple application store page below:

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/multiple-meanings-library/id525605265
