Popularity of laptops and wireless networks are making telecommuting a pretty standard business practice these days. With all this remote access going on, the accessibility of corporate files off company premises become worrisome, it goes without saying that more companies are increasing their security perimeter to include the home computers of their employees.
A recent study found that in 2005, nearly 9 million people worked from home for three or more days a month. A full 25 percent of those people worked from home all the time. Early predictions are for even higher figures in 2006.
That's a lot of opportunities for hackers to seize computer secrets, especially given the inherently lower level of security found in most home computer systems.

Interviewing tips for a Telecommuting Job
Telecommuters are individuals who spend part, if not all, of their working hours at another location other than the workplace. For most people it is their home. In order to do this one must have a variety of "telecommunication technologies" such as a telephone, Internet, various computer programs and a fax machine at one's disposal.
Telecommuters need to have excellent skills when it comes to the laborious task of telephone interviews. The first most important phone interview tip is to always be prepared in case you are contacted for an interview, no matter what time of day it is. Many employers do not give telecommuters the heads up in advance about when they will be calling to speak with them.
Another important phone interview tip is to get ready for your interview in much the same way you would for a regular "in person" interview. Anticipate what questions you might be asked and have appropriate answers in your mind (or written on paper) before the interview even begins. Be ready and willing to answer questions about your educational background, work experience and skills. Also be prepared to tell the prospective recruiter or employer what you could do for him or her.
Prepare a list of questions you wish to ask the interviewer. Always ask at least a few questions as it shows that you are paying attention and that you are very interested in the position in question. Keep in mind that phone interviews are sometimes more difficult to gage because you have to rely completely on the spoken word. Neither the interview nor interviewee is able to pick up on body language or any nuances of behavior but instead must go by the words and questions they are presented with and the pitch and intonation of words. Tread carefully and maintain a balanced, professional and courteous tone of voice at all times.
It is essential in a phone interview for a telecommuter to speak as a person in the know. Don't indulge in too many "ums", "okays", "I don't knows" or "uhs" as these words don't carry with them an air of knowledge or confidence. Always have your resume nearby so you can consult it during your phone interview. After all the interviewer is looking at your resume, why shouldn't you be as well?
Other important tips include turning your call-waiting feature off so there are no interruptions; making sure you are alone in the room and there is no noise anywhere nearby to disturb the interview and having a notepad and paper handy to jot down any relevant information that you glean from the interview.

Nude telecommuting
SonicWall claims a survey it commissioned establishes that 1 in 10 telecommuters work with no clothes on (some might argue it really means that 1 in 10 telecommuters like messing with survey takers):
While about 39% of respondents of both sexes said they wear sweats while working from home, 12% of males and 7% of females wear nothing at all. In matters of cleanliness, the difference between the sexes was more pointed: 44% of women surveyed said they showered on work-at-home days, as opposed to men, who were slightly more likely to shave (33%) than wash (30%).

Americans challenged to Telecommute
TORRANCE, Calif., Making good on its promise and to honor Earth Day on April 22nd, LiveOffice Corp.'s (http://www.liveoffice.com) Conferencing division began offering a free month of web conferencing services to American commuters on April 1st. Any American worker willing to telecommute to the office at least once during the month of April is entitled to a free 30-day trial of web conferencing from LiveOffice.
"If this campaign is successful, in just one month, 100,000 Americans could save an estimated total of $2.5 million on gas, prevent more than 15 million pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere and conserve more than 35,000 barrels of crude oil," said Ted Heieck, IMConferencing product manager for LiveOffice Corp. "Earth Day is the ideal time for American commuters to begin making the shift from traditional car travel to telecommuting and this Challenge is the perfect opportunity for them to experience the benefits of web conferencing first hand with no long-term commitment."
By telecommuting to work once a week over the next month, the average American worker can save money, conserve gas and make a positive impact on the environment. As an example, if one car commuter telecommutes 4 times in the next month, they could:
* Save $25 on gas
* Gain 4 more hours of family time or sleep
* Prevent 186 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere
That means that if just 1,000 car commuters choose to telecommute 4 times in the next month, they could:
* Save $25,000 on gas
* Gain 4,000 hours of family time or sleep
* Prevent 191,000 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere
* Conserve 352 barrels of crude oil
In addition, if just one commuter commits to telecommuting 1 time per week for 1 year, they could:
* Save $300+ on gas
* Gain 52 more hours of family time or sleep
* Prevent 2,500 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere
* Conserve approximately 5 barrels of crude oil
Using web conferencing is a great alternative to the daily car commute to and from the office. Today's conferencing technologies are:
* Convenient -- as easy as creating an account and logging in to start a
scheduled or unscheduled meeting
* Cost effective -- pricing models are designed for every type of
business from SOHO/SMBs to enterprises; great features like integrated
video and audio are available for as little as $100 per month
* Easy-to-use -- conferencing has become much more user friendly,
intuitive and reliable since its initial introduction in the 1990s
* Great for appearance -- web conferencing gives workers a "professional"
appearance, even when they are working from home
LiveOffice wants to demonstrate to Americans that much of their business travel, even just to and from the office, can be replaced with effective and convenient telecommuting technology services, such as web conferencing and teleconferencing. For more information on how you or your business can take the Challenge, please call (800) 251-3863 or visit http://webconference.liveoffice.com.
