Guam and visas

The military build up on Guam has an interesting twist to it, namely the exemption from visa limits.

I wrote this take on it for Computerworld.

My conclusion is that the cap exemption won't have much impact on Guam -- at least in terms of becoming an alternative work location by U.S. firms that can't get a H-1B visa in the U.S.

Any person on Guam will be working remotely. But on a broader point, I really do think that Guam could be an attractive location for some workers, especially writers and other content producers, who want to be in the U.S. but work in a time zone that is friendly to late shift work. And work on a tropical island as well ....
