Wikileaks has started posting 24 hours worth of captured pager traffic from September 11, 2001. An interesting snapshot in time especially since the pager network was more reliable than voice cellular.
“From 3AM on Wednesday November 25, 2009, until 3AM the following day (US east coast time), WikiLeaks is releasing over half a million US national text pager intercepts. The intercepts cover a 24 hour period surrounding the September 11, 2001 attacks in New York and Washington.” (WikiLeaks.org)

“AOL staff has confirmed that the company is set to lay off thousands more employees in the coming months, following the announcement of the launch of a voluntary layoff program.
Tricia Primrose, vice president of AOL’s Corporate Communications, said AOL employees were informed of the move Thursday and the company will ask for 2,500 employees to volunteer for the layoff program. The voluntary layoff program will run from Dec. 4-11. The layoffs represent one-third of the company’s workforce.
‘We will need to do an involuntary layoff if we do not reach the target numbers through the voluntary option,’ Primrose said in a statement. ‘We believe the voluntary program gives people more choice and decision-making ability instead of waiting for the final cost recommendations and involuntary layoffs.’”

“We’ve confirmed with Adobe that the company is cutting 9 percent of its workforce, or 680 employees. Adobe filed an 8-K with the SEC today reporting the layoffs. Earlier today we heard multiple reports that layoffs were taking place at Adobe. There are also Tweets about the layoffs on Twitter. Last December, Adobe laid off 600 workers (or 8 percent of its staff) due to the recession. “
