I do a search for Get Friday, one of the Indian firms mentioned, out of curiosity. Under unusual services they have provided a couple tidbits:
  • Apologizing and sending flowers and cards on their behalf to spouses or clients.
  • Research on how to tie a shoe lace meant for a kid (client’s son).
  • Talking to parents in our client’s stead.
  • Reading bedtime stories to a young kid on phone
What kind of person thinks it would be a swell idea to have someone in India read your kid a bedtime story on the phone because they are too busy? Although, it would be fun to have everyone route their requests to a personal assistant, just to see the looks on their faces.]]> I was a ghost in the machine until the machine woke up http://hivearchive.com/2007/05/28/i-was-a-ghost-in-the-machine-until-the-machine-woke-up/ Mon, 28 May 2007 23:26:14 PDT http://hivearchive.com/2007/05/28/i-was-a-ghost-in-the-machine-until-the-machine-woke-up/ I was a ghost in the machine until the machine woke up
