Technology & CommunicationWritten by Robert F. Abbott
Continued from page 1
Here's one more challenge: I recently looked at idea of being an online seminars facilitator. Participants would take part through their computers. In addition to getting a voice feed, they would also watch screen, which would be divided into three active sections. One portion would carry my notes, another would show reader questions, and a third would show something else. As presenter, I think I could handle sending. But, how would receivers handle these flows of information? In person, it's easy to watch a speaker, see her slides on screen, and listen to her at same time. But, is it same taking in all this information when it comes through a computer screen and speakers? Don't get me wrong. I like new technologies, not because they're replacing something else, but because they offer new options. Whether through access, price, or interactivity level, new technology opens doors to communicators. But, we need to think about implications for receivers when we communicate through new media. Come to think of it, didn't Marshall McLuhan write book on this a generation ago? In summary: With more managers communicating through new technologies, rather than travel and face-to-face meetings, we need to consider what can happen to important messages when they are transmitted through new media.

Continued from page 1 The dynamic customized services on display like QC reports and Q builders are being delivered by SIPL globally and are more customer centric rather than region centric as is self – evident to discerning customer who has forayed into SIPL website. The days gone by witnessed a few major players who directed and controlled monopolized market for years on end in contrast to present day scenario in this era of telecommunications which is dictated by a plethora of players both big and small as an aftermath of deregulation of markets world over and innovations such as a E – Biller are like manna for all and no business enterprise regardless of size can ill – afford to ignore! The revolution in Telecommunications sector then is driven by multitude factors – predominant amongst them being competitive model and driven by dynamism of telecommunications market world over and technological innovators such as SIPL who have contributed significantly with value added business solutions with a plethora of features – be it now familiar E – biller or be it in – depth data analyzer. The Telecommunication sector revolution would have little sustaining ability but for ushering in of era of Privatization and Liberalization which has inarguably led revolution. Privatization is better known as process of transfer of Public assets and control to private players whereas concept of Liberalization is akin to ushering in of era of a free market wherein competition is fierce but players like SIPL emerge with products of innovation like flexible E – biller. SIPL leaders in innovations and value – additions have enviable reputation of generating global telecommunications business solutions for business enterprises of all statures and deliver services rather than mere products which are unmatched in quality, delivery and consistency at a price that competition can seldom match!
