The Premier Kristina Keneally does not rely on a notebook to communicate with the public - she uses Twitter. Some MPs use the social networking site to simply make announcements, but the Premier actively engages Twitter users who make contact with her.

A "Public Sphere" is a space that "…through the vehicle of public opinion it puts the state in touch with the needs of society" [2]. This kind of engagement in public policy is a great way to represent different views and harness a broad range of expertise, particularly on topical issues of the day.

"There are some special rules that apply to communicating virtually. The most important is to remember that you are communicating with real people, not a computer. Don't spam. That is, don't send unsolicited e-mail. Remember that the Internet is a pull system, where people can request information, rather than one where you send them information without being asked. A wise person once suggested you treat the Internet like a foreign culture; study it for a month or more, as an anthropologist would, before you participate. Using this example, it would also be advisable to strongly consider cultural differences of the people with whom we communicate. This entails avoiding profanity and slurs or criticisms against any group of people. It means respecting differences and striving for political correctness in all forms of communication and action. The CD-ROM "Information Literacy Toolkit" provides definitions of legal considerations included in dealing with virtual communications. Below are some ethical considerations for handling them. As with security considerations, ethics in dealing with material handled via virtual communication is rooted in traditional communications. That which applies to the paper world also applies in the virtual world. The fact that information is easily available does not remove traditional requirements for attribution, for the avoidance of plagiarism or for the appropriate use the information. The anonymity provided by the ability to surf and search a large number of documents provides a temptation to use material in an unauthorized way. This temptation must be avoided. The same browsing tools that allow wide access also provide a tool for proper attribution. The writer may simply insert a link (URL) to direct the reader to the source of the information cited. Privacy should be safeguarded and observed. Those who control their own information should establish systems to keep information that they do not want disclosed protected. Owners of

Outsourcing mcahs-diigo flatclassroomproject

Return on assets: By reducing the not-insignificant investments, profits can improve significantly through outsourcing. Personnel productivity: By concentrating on the core business, it is possible to enhance the productivity of employees. Flexibility: The use of a service provider divides the risk and reduces the losses from changing market demands or outdated facilities and equipment. Labor considerations: Delicate labor union issues of day-to-day can be avoided, though employees need to deal with employee dissatisfaction arising from outsourcing. Management and Political considerations: Outsourcing eases managing the basic business since the logistics and most distribution problems are dealt with by service providers. Information technology: The ever-increasing demand for new technologies and resources often can be met more efficiently and economically. Maturity of the Service providers: In today’s world, an integrated logistics service provider is a dynamic firm, with highly qualified employees and utilizes a winning combination of efficient techniques.

Today’s fast paced world coupled with a demanding market place a premium on 24/7 banking services. Banks that provide round-the-clock availability of services find it  more feasible to outsource part of the customer service rather than double the number of employees. Ninety percent of new banks choose to outsource and there is high likelihood of this figure increasing in the long-term
