search and destroy

Sounds like a game!  It's no game, though.  It's your chance to say goodbye to adwares, spywares and malwares.

getting paid

I have never been more convinced that the internet is full of tools for just about anything. Just like the Google Docs Forms, this Express Invoice application could have saved me a lot of time. Had I discovered this earlier, I could have had electronic billing statements for training, consulting and other fees.

If you're working from home, the electronic invoicing system will do wonders for you.  Watch the video and find out how you can use this.

i can never get enough

Since I started blogging, I can never get enough of it.  There are days I open my Adsense stats first rather than my mail or my FB.  There's something about people reading my blogs that makes me want to really go for it -seriously writing serious blogs. Not that the blogs I've posted are not serious!  I choose the topics carefully. I don't want my readers to waste their time with subjects that won't add value to them.

What I want to start doing is what I'm doing right now - writing my very own thoughts, a blog that's totally mine.

You might want to try blogging, too.  It's such a good way of getting up-to-date, of finding a constructive outlet for your emotions, of brushing up on your writing and internet skills, of telling the world that you are as much a part of their world as they are a part of yours.

I prepared this 'getting started on blogging video' to pique your curiosity. Try it.  You'll be surprised at how time flies while you're blogging. 

have you ever used a Dropbox?

I'm sure you have. You've dropped raffle tickets, application forms and what-have-you's in drop boxes strategically placed in supermarkets, malls, banks and any institution with promos.

Let me tell you about another drop box.  An electronic one.  An application that you can install in all computers you are using.  Files you save in your Dropbox folder will be updated and synced.  And these files will always be saved on the web.

something i would do for free

Do you know what your passion is?  Have you found that one thing that you would like to do all the time? Something you love doing so much you would do it for free?


I have!  I can go for days without sleep (but with food!) when I'm designing a presentation.  Give me a topic, tell me the audience, the where and why's. I'll be on it real fast and you don't even have to say please.


There's something about creating a presentation that pumps my adrenaline. It's like the empty slide is my canvass and I'm being asked to paint a STORY, not just a picture.


Making videos out of my presentations - now that's a real feat. It's  tedious.  But it's fun.  And I found a way to make these videos without Movie Maker.


Photo Flash Maker has a free version that you can use.  You can make movies out of your pictures and share them with family and friends.


Check this out!  Who knows?  You might just find your passion when you try using Photo Flash

getting out of a comfort zone

As I mentioned in my blog "Getting Started with Skype",  it took me awhile to switch to Skype.  Actually, the switch is not a complete switch.  Not just yet.  I prefer to have the security of having something I'm quite familiar with on the sidelines - while I'm still learning the ropes.  I guess that's my way of making the transition easier.


Getting out of a comfort zone is like getting out of a so-so relationship. There's nothing wrong with it. But there's also nothing grand.  You don't know whether you're coming or going. You feel something is missing.  But you're scared to let go, for fear that you won't find something better.  Or worse, end up with nothing at all.  Yet, everyday you wonder if you're settling for second best.


Do you really want to settle with 'nothing wrong'?  Don't you want to know if there's something grand out there for you and you just need to stop wondering and start searching?  If you don't venture into the unknown, how will you know?  If people never searched for answers, there would have been no discoveries, our world one that never changed from the day it was created.


Can you imagine a world with nothing new?  I can't.  And I don't want that either.  So, much as I like my comfort zones, I bully myself into trying something different.


I didn't have to bully myself to try Skype. My current situation calls for it.  And I am quickly discovering that I like it.  It serves the same purpose as YM.  But it offers something else.  If you haven't tried it just yet, check out this video.

Don't Let Memory Loss Get the Better of You

If you're anything like me, you go through life collecting files, materials, notes- anything  that you might use later on.  I can't help it. I'm a sucker for anything that I can use for my training designs, presentation materials, blogs. It can be frustrating trying to organize all these files.  It's even more frustrating when you can't find them, knowing they are just there- stored somewhere.


Evernote is a way to end that frustration. Watch this video and find out why - and how.
