India-based companies have emerged as the most trusted ones, with the technology sector being ranked the highest in terms of transparency and credibility, according to the recently released report from Edelman Trust Barometer. India-headquartered companies are trusted by a majority of people in the country. While US' trust in technology is 78 percent and China is 83 percent, in India it is 88 percent. Technology is the most trusted sector in India at 88%, followed by banks, automotive (79%), pharmaceuticals (75%), healthcare (73%), entertainment (70%) and media at a relatively low 58%.

In 2006 Google said it had no plans to be an internet service provider. In the same year an Internet news portal had also reported, “Several sources have reported over the last year that Google has been quietly acquiring inactive or ‘unlit’ optical cable — otherwise known as dark fiber — a key ingredient used to build data networks.” Snapping back to February 2010, Google announces they are putting to use miles of dark fiber -- the underground cable left unused since the Internet bubble -- in an experimental project to build an ultra-fast fiber-optic broadband network. So you cannot help but look at the small print in this particular initiative – Cloud Computing.

The benefits of BPM has been lauded and berated depending on the results the organisation in question recorded for its project. While some companies achieved the goals they had planned for and found BPM met, and even exceeded, their expectations, others found that projects took longer to complete and cost more than what they were initially budgeted for. This failure to meet basic goals led to the eventual disenchantment for BPM among companies. The distinguishing factors between the implementation methods of the successfull and failed projects will give us a better idea of the guidelines that should be followed to ensure a high rate of success in future BPM projects.
