<p>So far, the extent of Sony&#8217;s 2012 smartphone portfolio for the  US extends only to the AT&amp;T-bound Xperia Ion, with no word just yet whether the see-through banded Xperia S will arrive on American shores. What happens if it was called the Xperia Sola? That very name&#8217;s showed up at the US Patent and Trademark Office, although that&#8217;s largely it. So it could be a phone we&#8217;ve already seen, or perhaps one of those many road-mapped pseudonyms. Well, with a certain big mobile event just around the corner, we&#8217;re sure to get a few more answers on Sony&#8217;s other plans for the New World later this month.

<p>				That Field Notes notebook you&#8217;ll find in many a reporter&#8217;s back pocket ensures they never miss a scoop, but it doesn&#8217;t do a lot for their image. At least not as much as this clever faux-hankie notebook that complements a blazer.				More&nbsp;&raquo;<br />

<p>				I love everything about these ninja-inspired throwing star sticky notes from ThinkGeek. Everything except the fact they&#8217;re made from black paper, making them next to impossible to write on with anything other than a special marker.				More&nbsp;&raquo;<br />

	<img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/11/bbmsoft1911.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; border-style: solid; margin: 4px;" /></div>
<p>You might think working for tech royalty out west is all beanbags and 20 percent time. And it might well be. But if your paychecks say Microsoft, you might want to be careful how you spend that extra down-time. A patent with the snappy title <em>Organizational Behavior Monitoring Analysis and Influence</em> describes a system devised by the company to monitor employee interactions. Everything from cutting people off in conversation, to the verbal phrases and mannerisms used over &#8220;multi-modal communications&#8221; (e-mail, phone and so on) is covered. The aim of the Orwellian system is &#8220;defining desired and undesired behaviors for enhancing organizational trust levels&#8221; and it&#8217;s not the first time Microsoft has made such sinister sounding patent applications. OK, so there is nothing saying exactly what this might be for, or if this would ever be used to monitor its own employees. That said, if your parking space isn&#8217;t there on Monday, you might want to backtrack through the previous week&#8217;s water-cooler diatribes.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img title="office" src="http://gigaom2.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/office.jpg?w=300&#038;h=199" alt="" width="300" height="199" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-389013" />The traditional office space is in the midst of its most dramatic shift since it was rocked by the creation of the cubicle more than 40 years ago. Driven by new communication technologies, the globalization of supply chains and an increased emphasis on real estate cost reduction, we’ve seen a massive change in the way people work. The “New Office” is an airport lounge on a tablet, a midnight video call on the kitchen counter, a shared table at the office or a collaboration pod for ad hoc meetings. These new workspaces create fresh<br />
challenges for IT departments and technological demands from today’s workforce – from new productivity tools to broader communication and collaboration solutions.</p>
<p>In the last 10 years, we’ve seen a significant reduction in the average office space per employee. In 1995, it was approximately 300 square feet; today it is 225 square feet or less. This workspace shrinkage is due to various work style trends, including companies leveraging hot desking, where an employee temporarily occupies a workspace outfitted to meet their needs, hotelling,reservation-based hot desking, and incentive programs for employees who work from home.</p>
<p>These space-focused work trends create new pain points for employees, ranging from a need for tools that increase privacy (such as headsets, individual phone booths, etc.) to self-sufficiency and collaboration solutions. As a result, the IT industry is now focused on implementing radically simple and easy-to-use solutions, requiring no IT support, so employees can focus on communicating and collaborating. I was particularly intrigued by Tim Campos’ decision at Facebook to use vending machines to dispense items like keyboards, headphones and power sources to employees – part of what he calls “frictionless IT.”</p>
<p>Piggybacking the evolving office space is the gradual increase of space allocated to team collaboration &#8212; currently, it’s close to 30 percent of the average office space. It used to be that meetings were relegated<br />
to a few dedicated rooms and water cooler discussions literally happened around the water cooler. Today, the physical space is adapting to the way teams work – ad hoc, on a project basis, cross-functional, with team members scattered around the world. We’re witnessing a fragmentation of collaboration spaces. Now there<br />
are larger amounts of smaller spaces for employees – rooms that typically hold about four people – equipped with video conferencing systems that are smaller, cheaper, self-installed and easy-to-use.</p>
<p>Driven by the need to replace more antiquated pieces of IT equipment and the availability/growth of unified communications (UC) solutions, we’re seeing a union of computing and communication tools at the desk and in new collaboration spaces. UC simplifies how employees work together, regardless of whether or<br />
not they’re in the office. However, questions are rising around what device will become the catch-all communication and productivity solution: the PC, a tablet dock, a UC phone or perhaps a smartphone.</p>
<p>This is certainly just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to next-generation collaboration products and the evolution of the new office. Video conferencing addresses the need for structured meetings, but new tools will emerge to address the need for unstructured collaboration – from interactive connected smart boards to tablet whiteboard applications.</p>
<p>My guess: this is just the beginning. The personal space will continue to shrink and become increasingly mobile/virtual. We’ll likely see a day where the office becomes a series of collaboration spaces, designed to connect fragmented virtual teams. Until then, we’ll continue to witness the development of new<br />
technologies and services designed to address the changing office. New players and industry stalwarts alike will start to develop products and solutions that make the new office a reality.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img title="offices in the age of agile working" src="http://gigaom2.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/wrecking-ball.jpg?w=240&#038;h=180" alt="" width="240" height="180" class="alignright size-full wp-image-346693"/>Are there dinosaurs among us? If a new joint report from Regus and Unwired called <em>VWork: Winning Strategies at Work </em> is to be believed, yes. The report on the future of the office in an age of increasingly agile work surveyed 600 businesspeople along with several heads of global real estate and will be released next week. Of course, the lumbering beasts it identifies aren’t giant reptiles, but instead traditional corporate buildings, which the report claims are underutilized, inflexible and a bad fit for the work of today.</p>
<p>But like the dinosaurs, which scientists tell us live on as chickens, the office building of the past is unlikely to become completely extinct, but rather to evolve to meet the demands of new kinds of workers, driven by technological advances and a desire for a lighter, cheaper real estate footprint. So what will this new paradigm look like? To find out, we spoke with Bob Gaudreau, Executive VP of Regus and Philip Ross, CEO of Unwired, about the changing meaning of the office in a wired world.</p>
<p><strong>Jessica Stillman: </strong><em>One of the models for the future you explore in the report is the idea that employees will be allowed to buy their own office space. Can you explain how you envision that working?</em></p>
<p><strong>Philp Ross</strong>: One of the core corporate drivers in the move to agility is a reduction in the cost of real estate. It’s a move from providing a container for work that tends not to be used towards a future where it’s on-demand — that work places are aligned with how people actually want to work.</p>
<p>We found that only 45 percent of desks in offices are used at any one point in time today. So what we’re doing is aligning the idea of “buy/bring-your-own,” which is beginning to get traction in the IT world, with the idea of just provisioning work, so that companies give their employers a stipend, a budget, and the budget is for all aspects of the provisioning of work to suit them and the way they work.<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Bob Gandreau</strong>: We’re seeing it happen already. Companies like Yell in the UK had 20 properties that were sitting vacant 70 percent of the time. So what they did is they gave everyone a membership to be able to use any of the Regus locations, and these people can go into the location where they want, when they want and work how they want. It’s not totally the worker buying his own, but it is companies giving them a sum of money and allowing the worker to pick the right work setting depending on what the worker needs. What that means for Yell is they’re saving, I think, £1.5 million or 40 percent of all their property costs by working in a much more agile way.</p>
<p><strong>Jessica: </strong><em>If you go super lean and cut back severely on space at traditional offices, how do you plan usage so if everyone wants to use the space, they can?</em></p>
<p><strong>Ross</strong>: It’s a very important point. We identified only 12.3 percent of people want to work from home, but you can also see in the research that people want a very short commute. So I think what we’re identifying really is that people want to work locally. We’re seeing this kind of new hybrid model where there’s a bit of working from home, a bit of working from the corporate office, but also this move towards third space — new spaces that are in the community — and that’s a very exciting trend.</p>
<p>In terms of load-balancing the corporate building, we’ve seen it done around the world. We profiled companies like Macquarie Bank in Sydney who built a kind of on-demand, real-time building. Companies are looking at this to provide places to work, not desks or cubes, so that there is always somewhere to work and also reallocating space based on the work that people actually do, which is moving more and more towards collaborative work, not just working solo in a cube. Again, we found that not only are 55 percent of the cubes empty at any one point in time, people report they can’t get meeting rooms. So I think what we’re seeing is a wholesale reallocation of space in the corporate center, and that also looks like a 20-25 percent of reduction of space at the same time.</p>
<p><strong>Gandreau</strong>: In the old days you might see 10 percent of the space as meeting room, lounge and collaboration, now it’s 20-30 percent of the space, because it becomes a destination for people to come together and do that kind of work, which is where the good ideas come from.<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Jessica: </strong><em>So-called “third space” seems to play a big role in the future you’re imagining, but are they up to the task today? Are there enough quality spaces available, and if not, do you predict a big boom in the industry? </em></p>
<p><strong>Ross</strong>: There is a mixed range out there – there are some very good ones and some very mediocre ones that don’t quite meet the needs of the corporates. You can see them meeting the needs of the freelancers, the contingent workers, who go in with their Macbook Airs and have a coffee and they’re online, but they don’t meet the confidentiality needs and other services needs that they will have to respond to if Fortune companies adopt third space. I see them becoming, perhaps, more like an airport lounge with tiers of membership where platinum cardholders can get advanced services with teleconferencing, privacy and other facilities. I think it’s got some way to go from the kind of café society to a much more sophisticated offering of the future.</p>
<p>But if we see a huge change, a sea change, in the way that big corporates are working — if they do reduce their property footprint by 30 or 25 percent — we’ll see tens of thousands of new workers looking for someplace to work, especially in their communities, but no that hasn’t yet been provided for.<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Gandreau</strong>: I see it happening before our eyes when you go out in the community. I was just back at my alma mater in Boston and I went to the library. In the old days, you couldn’t talk in the library, right? Now there are white boards and students collaborating, so I see more and more third spaces appearing in the places you’d least think they’d appear. Another place I’ve seen them, and Regus has looked at locating, is shopping malls. People are actually meeting in shopping malls. They’re naturally occurring in the places where large groups come together – sort of like the piazza in the old days. If you were in an Italian village people would go to the piazza and it was a beehive of activity. Third spaces are the piazzas of the modern century.</p>
<p><strong>Jessica: </strong><em>Your report very much focuses on the cost savings of agile working and shies away from more holistic arguments, including commonly sited things like quality of life and environmental benefits. Why did you make that choice?</em></p>
<p><strong>Ross</strong>: Over the years a lot of chat has been around about touchy-feely, nice-to-have issues around this, but corporates want to see the bottom line. They want to understand the impact on their business — how they can reduce costs, how they can improve efficiency. They are hard-nosed. We’re coming out of a climate of recession. Money is king. Doing more with less is top of the agenda.</p>
<p>Technology trends, the drivers from cloud to devices to connectivity, are enabling us to look at agility from a very different perspective, and in the report we’ve identified this idea of the agility dividend — how we can measure and monetize this, because I think what we found is companies are saying, we want to look at this but how do we present this to the board? The dividend looks at three key areas: reducing costs of real estate, a happiness dividend in work-life balance and improving the working lives of people, and the productivity dividend, making us more effective. If you sit back and look at this picture, it’s a no-brainer: there are lots of other spin-offs from environmental benefits through to the quality of life. We have to monetize it. We need a figure to produce a compelling business case to the CFO and the COO.<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Gandreau</strong>: Our challenge has been for years to put a number to it. Once you can put a number to it, it becomes a really compelling argument. Once you have the bottom line, the flexibility you get by working in a more agile way just becomes the gravy. But it all starts with the numbers.</p>
