watson, mientras el futuro te alcanza.

You should read As the future catches you just so you can understand why this is so amazing:

Meet Watson . He already showed today he can be the best assistant you can imagine. Today, he is an amazingly complex and expensive computer, owned solely by IBM. Tomorrow, He will be your phone/computer. By that time, you will be talking to one of Watson's descendants, almost more than to humans. He will be the voice in the call centers you reach out to, or at least their aid if you would rather talk to a human. He will be your doctor someday, he will fix your problems, and amazingly, you will wonder what education is really for, if we have this wonderful machines that can answer everything.

This is the first step in making a computer indistinguishable.

The next big breakthrough, will be when a PC thinks without an input. A computer that exists, takes in, communicates, interacts, creates and experiences - basically, lives.

Andres Calamaro - Alta Suciedad

Today I´ll talk about one of the best albums by Argentine rocl/pop star Andres Calamaro. Today I found a playlist on youtube that starts off with all the songs from this record. It is is simply amazing, probably the best in his prolific career.

Really awesome album, even if you don´t understand spanish, you will find the music is perfect.

Also, I must say that while being in the outsourcing industry will always give you more insight into the world market than your regular Joe, I´m now reading a book that should be Outsourcing 101: The world is flat by Thomas L. Friedman. Pretty amazing and I´ve just started it.

This book was an assignment for half the class in one of my IT project management master degree classes. The other half, which was me, got assigned one of the best books I´ve read in my whole life: Juan Enriquez Cabot´s "As the future catches you". It is simply amazing. I haven´t found it on pdf, but I did go and bought the last copy from the Libreria Internacional over at Zapote.
