Poffertjes and Power

What impressed me, though, was that there was ample room there to work -- several little cubicles, a couple of actual offices, and, blow me backwards, lots of power outlets -- either in the walls, or in the floor.

ten mov.es

Posted Sunday January 13, 2008, 1:25 pm, Over one day old

User Determined Computing

I'm not sure it's a new phenomenon, but Accenture reckons it is: employees are more tech savvy than the companies they work for and are demanding their workplace catches up. PS I wasn't hugely impressed with Accenture's own website, which didn't comply with the most basic standards of Web 2.0.
