IT prisons vs. occasional sparks of enlightenment

By My status Villu Arak on March 7, 2008 in Business, Skype around the world.

The weekend is nigh and you're probably cherishing the thought of sleeping in on Saturday. Then again, you could be a selfless and dutiful Eastern European male who knows about International Women's Day and will wake up early to get your significant female other some flowers and cook her a proper breakfast.

In any case, I wanted to draw your attention to a nice piece by our UK blogger Peter. Inspired by a this week's Wall Street Journal article on businesses that banish useful and cool technologies, he's linked the issue to a Guardian story on the experimental spark that has led a couple of big firms to attempt morphing the monster known as corporate IT policy into a cute little puppy.
