Wissensmanagement - auch dieser Kaiser
by Volker Weber
Wissensmanagement - auch dieser Kaiser ist nackt: "Kopfarbeiter haben spezielle Werte und ein eigenes Selbstverständnis. Sie sind an Karrieren im üblichen Sinne, vor allem an Managementkarrieren, wenig interessiert. Sie wollen fachlich interessante Aufgaben haben. Anerkennung durch einen Chef wird gering geschätzt, außer er ist selbst Fachmann auf demselben Gebiet. Das Lob von Laien hat kein Gewicht, die Anerkennung durch die Fachwelt zählt. Kopfarbeiter haben keine Angst. Sie fürchten sich nicht vor einem Stellenwechsel und bangen nicht um ihre Existenz. Sie sind vielleicht als Personen nicht sehr selbstbewusst, aber sie wissen, dass sie gebraucht werden, und wenn es nicht in dieser Firma ist, dann eben in einer anderen. Sie arbeiten in ihrem Selbstverständnis im Grunde überhaupt nicht für eine Firma, sondern für ein Fach. Kopfarbeiter müssen in erster Linie geführt werden durch Aufgaben, die ihnen selbst sinnvoll erscheinen. Und darüber hinaus müssen sie sich in erheblichem Maße selbst führen. Sie sind entweder Selbstorganisierer und Selbstmanager - oder sie sind ineffektiv. Das ist das neue Produktivitätsproblem in Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft. Es ist auch ein Loyalitäts- und Stabilitätsproblem."

Der Kalte Krieg ist vorbei - Wladimir Putin, Präsident der Russischen Föderation am 25. September 2001 vor dem Bundestag - Als erster russischer Präsident hat Wladimir Putin am 25. September 2001 vor dem Bundestag gesprochen - zum größten Teil auf Deutsch. Er beschwor die Einheit der europäischen Kultur, forderte Einsicht in die völlig veränderte Weltlage seit dem Ende des Kalten Krieges, und sagte allem Terrorismus, nationalem Haß, Separatismus und religiösem Fanatismus den Kampf an. Zum deutsch-russischen Verhältnis sagte Putin: "Geschichte - genauso wie die Ozeane - trennt nicht nur, sie verbindet auch."

O'Reilly Network: Peer and Web
by Volker Weber
O'Reilly Network: Peer and Web Services are Technologies of Connection and Coordination: Imagine a technology that enables you to reach across the network into my file system, or that reflects a change in my document directly into a cell of your spreadsheet. I watched these kinds of demonstrations at the O'Reilly Peer-to-Peer and Web Services Conference with a curious sense of deja vu. I had seen all this before, almost a decade ago, in Windows for Workgroups. So what's really new here, beyond a protocol facelift that replaces SMB with WebDAV, and NetDDE with SOAP? The scale and richness of cyberspace changes everything. Now that the Internet encompasses all of those LAN-based workgroups and so much else too, new modes of collaboration can take root and flourish. (via Hugh)

The Register: How Microsoft invented open source, by Billg - The open source movement wouldn't exist without Microsoft, Bill Gates told his company's shareholder meeting earlier this week. Open source is also a follower, not an innovator, and destroys jobs, the economy and world peace (we made that last bit up).

by Volker Weber
Reader response: "I think many corporations and all but die-hard MS faithful have already left for Java spaces. My company is one example. We have completely dumped all MS developer products in favor of BEA, Borland and J2EE. Our entire MS application base is now considered a legacy, maintenance-only environment. Within the next month our users won’t even attach directly to the Microsoft ASP environment. All ASP applications will be accessed through a Java Servlet proxy. The proxy allows all our legacy web applications to integrate seamlessly with our new Java web applications. In a way, we’ve turned our legacy ASP environment into a giant HTML-based request/response web service."

by Volker Weber
Controversial comedian Chris Morris behind George W Bush Internet hoax which splices the words of speech by US president George W. Bush. An MP3 file titled Bushwhacked, which is currently being hosted on the official Warp Records website, www.warprecords.com, has taken Bush's recent speech from the White House in Washington that announced the start of the ongoing military action in Afghanistan, and spliced them into a different order to give his words an altogether different meaning.
The words are rearranged so Bush is heard to say the US have started attacking Great Britain, and "more than 40 countries in the Middle East". The speech becomes increasingly surreal and also makes references to Bush's father and former president George Bush.

WebSphere Professional: Inside WebSphere V4!
by Volker Weber
WebSphere Professional: Inside WebSphere V4! The IT world is now witnessing the first major battle in a "clash of the titans" that recalls the 1960s, when IBM wielded System/360 hardware to crush mainframe competitors — or the desktop wars of the early 1990s, when Microsoft launched the Windows blitzkrieg that overran Apple and IBM. In this latest conflict, IBM is again a principal combatant, but its chief weapon this time isn’t hardware or an operating system – it’s WebSphere Application Server (WAS). IBM’s goal is clear: it wants a dominant position in the current server-oriented era just as it once had when mainframes ruled the IT landscape. And, IBM is betting big that the victor this time around will be whoever supplies the lion’s share of application servers, such as WAS.
