Octopus Paul taps Genpact
By Techgirl

If you are following the Football World Cup in South Africa, or if you have watched TV on read a newspaper in the last 10 days, you would have seen Paul the Octopus correctly predicting all of Germany’s games.

Housed in an aquarium in Germany, Paul the Octopus is given a choice of two boxes of food each sporting the flags of the rival football teams.  And Paul has correctly predicted each of German’s six games at FIFA 2010, South Africa.

Apparently, Paul is so successful that his services have been outsourced for a small fee to other countries as well. Chashmebaddoor and I contacted the Aquarium in Germany and asked them if Paul could predict who would be India’s No. 1 BPO in 2010-2011.  As seen in the image above Paul picked Genpact.
