Big data is a big problem if you can't interpret it
The Globe and Mail
When Jean-Paul Isson started at Monster, the popular job recruiting website, he was amazed to see just how much data the company was collecting. Every resume, e-mail and Web page visited, among other things, offered invaluable insight into how job seekers used the company's services. That information, if analyzed right, could help recruiters create better postings and attract the right talent.
Panel: B.C. shouldn't use Internet voting due to security risks
Times Colonist
B.C. should not widely implement Internet voting for provincial or local elections due to security risks, says an independent panel struck to study the issue.
"The risks of implementing Internet voting in British Columbia outweigh the benefits at this time," the panel says in a government-commissioned report released.

The Guardian

VoIP is the future for the world's telcos, but it won't be an easy one
Memeburn
I recently wrote about operators saving a packet on toll charges by using IP technology at the core, while failing to pass the benefit on to consumers and businesses with retail voice over IP (VoIP) products.
This, I pointed out, is because very cheap voice products will quickly decimate their revenues, so it seems reasonable to expect that the fixed-line and mobile telcos will hold on to their traditional business models a little longer.
Sending e-marketing messages
Brisbane Times
Using e-marketing can be a great way to promote your business and let your customers know about sales and special offers. However, you should be aware that if you send e-marketing messages to Australians, you must comply with the Spam Act 2003.
