Cisco’s Plans for World Domination

While Moammar Gadhafi‘s plans for world domination appear to be dashed, Cisco’s plans to rule “Over-the-Top” media distribution technology are underway with their “Videoscape TV Platform“. At CES, Cisco CEO John Chambers presented their five-pronged “grand plan” for Videoscape, which Chambers called “The Future of TV”.

Robin Berger’s post in TVTechnology  describes Cisco’s plan for “The Future of TV”.

Job Retention In “Old Media”

Job Retention In “Old Media”

Deborah McAdams does a great take on data from the Wall Street Journal about the best jobs to have in 2011.  Broadcast technician went from 44th place in 2010 down to 99th in 2011. Newscaster fell from 95th place down to 128th. McAdams smirks that newscasters could be replaced by avatars. But gee, it’s great to be Sam Champion. Meteorologist moved up from 12th place in 2010 to 6th in 2011!
