Recently came across this note from Michael Page (the international recruiter):
After October 1st…it will be illegal to discriminate on the basis of age. …Employers must review any job application forms and advertisements to check for controversial words or phrases that might indicate a certain age group – words such as ‘energetic’, ‘potential’, ‘experienced’, ‘young’ or even ‘dynamic’ may give rise to a complaint. (sic)
No, I did not make this up.

Many years ago (in Nov ‘02 to be precise), Prof Susanna Khavul at LBS asked me to come one evening and speak to her students about trends in technology and how we see the future.
These slides on Tech Trends were prepared for the session that we did on this on 18th Nov ‘02 .
I re-discovered them while cleaning my hard disk today…There is some interesting data (and two nice cartoon strips)…and at least two of the trends that I mentioned then seem to have taken off..
