Woh! What is this thing?!
This is a social bar from the Dilbert team and our friends at Meebo. It is a cool little feature we've added to Dilbert to make sharing comic strips, Mashups and other content, a simple click of the mouse from any page.
Try it out – use the buttons to instantly send the next funny comic you read to your Facebook status or your Twitter feed. We’re adding even more ways to share soon, so check this space often!
For those less mathematically inclined and to put a spin on .01%...
Under some !$%*!$%*!$%*! a number such as 1% or 3% can be a major increase for a company. So managers are often used to seeing small numbers as encouraging to performance gain.
Add on to this the confusion "is .01% 1% or is it 0.01%..." because if it's 0.01%.. That means you multiply your original by 1.0001. So essentially nothing changed. People tend to mistakenly interpret .01% as being 1.01 x (whatever) which is actually 1%, which could actually be an impressive gain.
By saying "efficiency" Dilbert is covered on his requirement for truth, because it's an extremely flexible word and any group of people who works together daily at least theoretically is getting better at working together with time. So he could pretty safely attribute "increase in efficiency" to this number and not be lying.
