Some stuff of interest I ran into on-line.
- Our society can yet be saved.
We should probably start with our women. Read this article by Lisa Bloom : http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/dont-dumb-girls-down-20110829-1jh86.html - And don’t forget about the men. They need help too.
Watch this video on “the demise of guys” : http://blog.ted.com/2011/08/05/talk-and-survey-are-we-seeing-the-demise-of-guys-philip-zimbardo-on-ted-com/ - So you need a new Curriculum Vitae? Take my advise. Insert it once on Linked-In, and use it many times over.
For example with this awesome website : http://vizualize.me/.
It makes pretty visual representations of your CV. See this example :
- Just a new and funny way of browsing the wild West that is the internet : http://canv.as/.
- So your cool image-CV made an impression ? Good for you.
Now read this blog posting on how not to spoil a job interview : http://www.skorks.com/2010/12/here-is-the-main-reason-why-you-suck-at-interviews/ - I do not know your question, but the answer is Google. Or, why engineers do not ask questions but are browsing all the time. Read here about how to finds the best how-to’s on-line : Engineers love Google.
And here some cool programs that only run on a Mac (sorry, but you’ve got to go with the times).
- Sparrow is a neat mail client : http://www.sparrowmailapp.com/
- So some kid stole your Mac or Windows PC? Not to worry. That is, if you installed Prey : http://preyproject.com/
- We all use Dropbox to store our files, don’t we (i don’t because i use Zumodrive, ahum..) and now we want to seamlessly sync multiple folders? Well, there’s an app for that and it’s called MacDropAny : http://wiki.dropbox.com/DropboxAddons/MacDropAny. Windows version also at this link.
- Cool advertizing for the iPad 2. I wait for the iPad 3 but you can have your go now : http://www.onemorething.nl/2011/09/ipad-reclame-wil-jij-iets-leren/
- So you have an Apple Mac Mini and now you realize you need a cool screen ? Here’s a 27” version with Thunderbolt support : http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/09/06/apple_shipping_first_thunderbolt_displays_to_stores_resellers.html
