Today’s question to you is… do you like to write?

Every day at work, one of our key tasks involves writing. It could be writing an email, a product brochure, a sales report or even a resignation letter.
It is important for us to be able to write well so that we can convey our messages clearly and effectively.
Although writing is an important skill to have, it’s not easy to master. Sometimes when we’re facing a deadline and we need to somehow complete the executive summary by the next day, we could feel our palms sweating and heart beating while we stare blankly on the computer screen.
We might just suffer from a writer’s block and can’t seem to type any out thing.
When I suffer from this problem, that’s when I wished that there’s someone out there who could help me complete my writing project, even for a fee.
There must be some people in this world who has a clear mind with strong writing skills eagerly waiting for his / her next writing job.
This website called TextBroker.com might just be the solution for us.

Have you seen Google’s Zurich office before?
The image on the left is a photo of Google’s office in Zurich. Click here to view more pictures of the Google office space. Photo by Zurich.
If you have seen all the photos, I’m sure you will wish that your office can be like that too. With pool tables, bathtubs to relax in and a nice cafeteria, who wouldn’t want to go to work? I read in a comment someone said he wouldn’t mind living and staying in an office like that 24 by 7.
Well, today’s post isn’t going to be able Google’s office but rather a free facilities, asset and maintenance management software for the people who are responsible in managing everything with regards to facilities and assets such as:
- Office buildings
- Lifts
- Elevators
- Furniture
- Toilets
Some may think that managing facilities is an easy task but from what I know, there are many aspects to it. In every facility, there are furniture, equipments, lights, water taps. All these needs to be maintained.
The maintenance of these facilities and assets are usually done internally or outsourced to vendors. If a particular maintenance such as lift maintenance, is done by a vendor then a contract needs to be agreed upon and signed. The contract will state some of these key agreements:
- Maintenance fees
- The service level agreement and its response time
- Number of maintenance to be carried out monthly or yearly
It can be quite challenging for organizations to manage multiple facilities and assets which are located in various sites. One way to overcome this would be to utilize a facilities, asset and maintenance management software. Continue Reading »

Recently I got lost while driving together with a friend looking for a some food to eat. This made me wish I had a GPS device with me at that time. The feeling of being lost in an unfamiliar territory freaks me out. The bad experience made me decide it’s time to get a GPS device and my preferred brand is Garmin.
Around this time, my three year old phone’s (Sony Ericson j230) battery kept dying on me. So instead of buying a new battery, I thought of going for a new phone instead. 
With so many new gadgets on my mind, I wanted to have just one device packed with all the following capabilities:
- Standard phone functions (Call, SMS)
- GPS navigation (Car, Walking)
- Web surfing via WI-FI or 3G
- Calendar
- View common files like (PDF, Word, Excel, Powerpoint)
- Camera
- Music mp3s
- Video
I looked around and finally found the Navigation Phone of my dreams…. the Garmin Asus nuvifone G60. Continue Reading »

Does your organization manage and maintain any of the following applications and servers?
- Exchange Server for email and messaging
- LAMP Server for all php and mysql applications
- Coldfusion for coldfusion applications
- Windows Server for .NET applications
- SQL Server or PostgreSQL for databases
If any of above are running within your datacenter or server room,the next question is, are the servers currently being monitored?
It is vital to know the performance and health of each of the servers to ensure that services are running at all times without any glitches.
In case the server has a problem, the owner of the server has to be the first to be alerted so that he can take the appropriate measure to fix and prevent the problem from reoccuring.
Utilizing the right tools will help your server administrators to proactively monitor servers rather than being reactive to a server error. Image by Jamison_Judd
If a tool is capable of software and hardware auto discovery, that would be even better since all you need to do is to install it and the auto-discovery capability gives you and accurate inventory of all hardware and software which are installed within your infrastructure. Continue Reading »
