Catching Up On Readings: Media Mania

If you have missed these posts from my recent writings, today may be a good time to catch up on some reading:

First, in the blogosphere, online media, old and new media, advertising – big changes have taken place. Here is a set of posts from the Deal Radar series that might help you make sense of these developments where I discuss companies that have driven some of the biggest changes: Techcrunch, GigaOm, Federated Media, Glam Media, Adify, Travel Ad Network, and Seeking Alpha.

On another front, I seem to have hit a beehive with my slingshot by writing the Death of Indian Outsourcing piece. Well, now that I have, I am trying to follow-up with additional coverage of the issues on the table.

What’s up with Obama and Outsourcing? Does SaaS threaten Indian Outsourcing? EETimes recently reported on the status of Indian offshore R&D operations. I have some suggestions on how to save the low-end IT jobs by expanding into India’s heartland.

Product continues to be a problem for India’s service-driven IT industry, despite its being flushed with venture capital. So what would happen in the next eight years? There is hope, though, with entrepreneurs like Sridhar Vembu lighting a different path.

On the interview series, if you have missed them, do get to know Lars Dalgaard, who took his company SuccessFactors public recently, Brian Jacobs and his story of raising a new venture fund amidst nuclear winter in Silicon Valley, and the recently started discussion with Jeff Housenbold on Shutterfly’s strategy.
