“I Have Dragons In My Family!” “As I pondered, weak and weary, o’er many a quaint and ancient volume of forgotten lore . . .” Or, roughly translated: I write technical manuals, and was getting really ticked off with the whole bit! So I decided to do some mowing. After…

Can we explain why this is the case? Is it possible to analyze some of the decisions Apple made that put them in this place, ensuring their serious dominance when it comes to the ‘best’ smartphone (even if they don’t have all the market share yet)? It seems like no one can pull off any reasonable level of competition so far (except for the great try that is the Palm Pre). Here are 5 specific reasons as to why this happened.
Turning your favorite hobby into a profitable business isn’t as difficult as you think. But there is an important mindset you absolutely must have in order to succeed. This mindset breaks down into attitude, determination and a marketing system.
Hi! I’m Loopy! That isn’t my proper name, of course, but I’ll tell you how I got to be called that later in this true story. I was a perfectly normal, happy, bad-tempered young rainbow lorikeet until I failed to notice that window. You see, windows are strange things for…
