The operator, in turn, will place an outbound traditional voice call to that particular party. The operator serves as a link between the two callers, relaying the text of the initial caller in voice to the other party, as well as converting spoken words to text. The service was first offered only via desktop and kiosk platforms, but it is now available to mobile users via an app. 2.Read for the blind.

    The IT system in this article is software that lets you restore your whole system back on the old or new computer in case your computer dies. But first, you need a "bootable disk". If your computer won't start, insert the bootable disk and the operating system will find it and start up. Second, you need to backup your computer to an external hard drive or DVD before it died. Then, you can use this software called "Acronis True Image Home 2011" that put Windows and all your programs, files and settings, onto a different computer without any hardware conflicts. True Image also comes with a "Try and Decide" mode where you can try any program that is stored on your external hard drive and decide whether you want to keep it on your new computer. Acronis True Image Home also comes with online backup, which is free for 2gb and it makes a bootable disk for you.

Foxconn: Robots don't complain or die | The Economist - 3 views

    Summary m12 nov 2 jenny
  •  
    Foxconn's employment ways have come to light. With suicide cases of their workers jumping out of the window. Foxconn say that they will be replacing a large amount of human labor with robots by 2012. And that they will move the workers up the value chain beyond basic manufacture working to increase productivity and innovation. However, it's for sure that some workers will be losing their jobs. Because of China's economic development, the costs are increasing, and whether or not they will be able to maintain a cheap "China price." Some may consider moving to other Asian countries for cheaper labor. However, Germany's Mittelstand firm that has a highly automated manufacturing system is just as competitive with China, but it isn't worried. Chinese authorities will continuously monitor the situation of how China will come to develop similarly to the West.
