Well guys I agree tht The World Is Flat - TWF is a good attempt at making the global picture clear. Have u guys been through the part where he defines the outsourcing phenomenon... I guess He has glorified the proffession from an Indian standpoint tht isnt really true....he goes by saying tht in India it wud be the most coveted proffession and many wud go thru a hard time before making it to work at an outsourced operation.
iam also not being entirely convinced on the analogy - Flat World - smtimes feel tht we are only buying it cause it comes frm Friedman ....do you guys have anything to say abt this?
iam still midway ....but all said I think its well written and clear, though cud be a little boring for the non techie at times!
Smthngs I never knew like the fiber optics revolution which got business to India ... netscape story and stuff
