„"Vestiges of the Devil in the form of historical racist ideologies and social inequalities from California's Spanish, Mexican, and American periods stubbornly persist in today's Silicon Valley. Stephen Pitti presents the seldom-told and hard-to-find causes of this dark and sometimes violent and discriminatory side of Silicon Valley's history, describing its continuing detrimental effects on its old and still emerging Latino population, which has been left behind again in the latest wave of economic success."--Fernando R.

„WuKong, a prototype PDA/phone developed by Sony Ericsson (see www.PointForward.com ), has demonstrated that a truly Chinese version designed for Chinese users not only uses Chinese characters, but has very different fundamental metaphors: not documents, applications and folders, but people, relationships and knowledge, wherein knowledge means best practices (that is, action plans) coupled with the wisdom of traditional experience.

Cultural or national characteristics also affect service patterns, such as customer attitudes toward security or economic questions.“http://milife.howardesign.com/jeff/12myths.html - Cached
