The professional directory Madison Who’s Who contains a large list of professionals from almost every occupation and every walk of life.  Many of these professionals are office-bound, and according to a new study, may be at risk for health problems as a result…of their laser printers.

In a small study, published in Environmental Science and Technology, researchers found that nearly 30% of the 62 printers they tested — including laser printers from Canon, HP, Toshiba and Ricoh — emitted high levels of ultra-fine toner particles, which were potentially as hazardous as cigarette smoke. In one Brisbane office the concentration of particulate matter per square inch was five times higher during working hours than nonworking hours.

However, there is no need to throw your printer out the window yet. Many critics of the study state there are some unwarranted assertions that study makes, and that there may not actually be a health risk.  The EPA has not done any recent research on the health effects of printer emissions.  Sharon Worthy of the U.S. Dept. of Labor says “historically laser printers have presented no known hazard in the workplace

The growth of online social networking websites has made effective global networking more viable than ever.  Sites such as MySpace and Facebook are one of the biggest online global phenomenons.  These sites have offered some of the most effective global networking strategies on both a personal as well as a business level.  In the first six months of 2007 alone, the number of users of these sites reached 6.5 million worldwide.

One of the fastest growing networking sites goes by the title of Facebook. However, it appears that Facebook is under attack from a competing social networking site.

The three founders of ConnectU say Mark Zuckerberg agreed to finish computer code for their site, but repeatedly stalled and eventually created Facebook using their ideas. The lawsuit’s allegations against Zuckerberg include fraud, copyright infringement and misappropriation of trade secrets. It asks the court to shutter Facebook and give control of the company and its assets to ConnectU’s founders.  Facebook has responded by asking a judge to dismiss the lawsuit.

Who’s Who or Who is Who is the name of a number of publications, generally containing concise biographical information on a particular group of people. It is also used as an expression meaning a collection or group of noted persons. Mostly who’s who lists are a register living people, very often those who publish that way themselves their biographical information having paid a subscription to the book.
Examples of Who’s Who publications include:

• Who’s Who (UK), a listing of prominent British people since 1849; people who have died since 1897 are listed in Who Was Who

• Who’s Who in Australia, a listing of prominent Australians since 1923

• Who’s Who in France, a listing of prominent French or people living in France since 1953

• Who’s Who in British History

• Who’s Who in Scotland, a listing of prominent Scots since 1993

Almost every organization or institution also keeps their own who’s who.  There’s a who’s who of outstanding students in America as well as a Who Who’s of the most recognized teachers and even a Who’s Who of lawyers and a Who’s Who’ of athletes.  Every company has its own roster’s of who’s who and every profession looks within it’s own ranks to spotlight their most brilliant with a who’s who designation.

The new profile features added to Digg.com are the first of many new peer to peer networking capabilities that will be added to the site. Officials said the new capabilities will let Digg.com users better interact and share content similar to other peer to peer network sites.
The user profile will allow users to personalize their Digg identity and to interact with people they designate as “friends” on the site, said Jay Adelson, Digg’s CEO.
With these changes, Digg.com is giving users the ability to say a little bit more about themselves [and] to establish for the first time ever private messaging between themselves and other users on the site.Users can also use the feature to select stories by topic, and to access stories their friends have submitted on commented on.
Before the end of the year, Digg plans to launch a an alerting feature to allow users to get email alerts like weekly or daily digests about stories on a particular topic or stories suggested by friends.  The site will also add a dedicated images section that will let users submit images to Digg, as well as an engine that will be used to recommend stories to individual users based on what that person’s particular interests.
