flattners


8-Insourcing (What the Guys in Funny Brown Shorts are Really Doing)
The employees in the companies do services for another company. For example, UPS repairs Toshiba computers on behalf of Toshiba. The work is done at the UPS hub, by UPS employees.

9- IN-forming (Google, Yahoo, MSN Web Search)
 "Never before in the history of the planet have so many people-on their own-had the ability to find so much information about so many things and about so many other people", writes Friedman. The growth of search engines is tremendous; for example take Google, in which Friedman states that it is "now processing roughly one billion searches per day, up from 150 million just three years ago, and also it has one billion searches per day".
10- The steroids (Digital, Mobile, Personal, and Virtual)
Personal digital devices like mobile phones, iPods, personal digital assistants, instant messaging, and voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). All these allowing users access to the information available on the internet from anywhere in the world.

Smart phones
Iraqi people use smart phones a lot, and they can be the basic part of people lives in Sully. People buy smart phones without using all parts. Younger spends more time using their phone, and they didn't pay more attention to study. They even do not have time with their family.

4- Uploading (Harnessing the power of communities)
Communities uploading and collaborating on online projects, such as open sources software, blogs.

5- Outsourcing
Outsourcing lets companies to split service and manufacturing activities into components that did in the most efficient cost effective way. This became easier with the mass distribution of fiber optic cables during the introduction of the World Wide Web (WWW).

6- Off shoring (running with Gazelles Eating with Lions)
The processes are to a foreign land to take advantage of less expensive operations there. China's entrance in the World Trade Organization allowed for greater competition in the playing field. Countries like Malaysia, Mexico, and Brazil have to compete against China and each other to have businesses offshore to them.

  Uploading is the most disruptive force of all and because there are dangers to a flat playing field when it comes to creating global knowledge and information. Though communities may self-police to try to ensure that what is released as news, software, or encyclopedia information is true and reliable, since no one is in charge quality control is not perfect.
