When you’ve worked in the hotel industry like I did you would know that 99.9% of hoteliers end up having relations with other hoteliers, especially those that work in the same hotel or in the same organization, maybe even a sister hotel. It is truly inevitable that these things happen, but I can understand it because people can spend as much as 16hrs a day in the hotel, traveling together and attending the same conferences, meetings, upgrading courses, cocktail parties and so on. When you spend so much time working, it’s hard to find time to meet someone else outside of work, right?

Keeping this blog up and running with no downtime so that all of those who are looking for the chinese movies that I am interested in to watch, needs a good website hosting. I had been having trouble with my old hosting company who told me to switch to a VPS (virtual private server) for 10 times the amount i was paying then. He didn’t even ask me about my traffic or nothing, just conveniently told me to pay more. Now that was frustrating because what I am doing is just for fun here.
So we decided to look for a new webhost and where better to look for information besides recommendation from other blogging friends..?? Web Hosting Geeks has reviews and many recommendations, you can compare prices and services and also find out which one suit your needs best. Don’t be taken in by these web hosting company like my previous one, who told me to switch to a private server to avoid downtime because a good web host, do not have the kind of down time like my previous host did. So do your homework like i did to avoid paying 10 times more than you should.
If you are a frequent traveler, then you know how it is.. when it comes to going thru’ security at the airport. Plus, you and I know that we bring our lappie everywhere we go.. and can’t lived without it.. but we also want to make sure that it is taken care of .. when we are traveling right..? If you are anything like me.. and don’t want it to go thru’ that conveyor belt security thingie .. this is a very easy way .. to get thru’ airport security .. because it has a clear window .. and conforms to TSA guidelines. Plus lots of room on the other side for your accessories like cords and mouse. At $59.99 definitely worth buying.. and we all know Belkin as being a good and trustworthy brand.
As the wife of a gamer.. you cannot and should not look at your man with disdain. .when he is playing his games. Afterall, isn’t this better than him going out to drink.. smoke. .and tease the beer waitress..?? or worst.. pinch the Hooter’s girls in the butt…??
I always encourage my spouse to game .. as much .. as he can. .when he can.. after helping out with the housework… and cooking.. plus taking care of the kid.. but of course.. until he meets geek gal in his group of gamers.. !! then one has gotta be careful.. for he find find Geek Gal .. way too cool.. than you are..! Well.. until then.. you can do this cross stitch for him.. to put in his basement.. or his den.. where he games.. that way.. he will always know you are watching him… muahahahahah!! want the stitch pattern.. ??? check out the domesticscientist.
Dragon Naturally Speaking is a great little tool for anyone who has to do a lot of writing. Journalists, students and even bloggers can benefit from this software. What does it do? It uses voice recognition technology to allow you to talk to your computer through a noise-canceling microphone. Everything you say is typed out for you, very quickly and very accurately, now everyone can type at 150 WPM for $99!. Brett Bumeter has asked me to share this very informative post about the product, so please take a look at the following!
Drew of the BenSparkhas put together a great little video demonstrating Dragon NaturallySpeaking. Drew has been blogging for quite some time and he might just be one of the best mobile bloggers that I know. He is probably more famous for his picture a day work as he is an excellent photographer. But I can’t help be amazed at how much content he creates and the high level of quality in that content.
He’s definitely a blogger that employs best practices when he finds them. And based on this video, it looks like he might see some potential in Dragon NaturallySpeaking. Now I am not trying to put an endorsement in Drew’s mouth. Time will tell, but I do think he is off to an excellent start.
You’ll notice in his video, that the sound quality of his video is excellent. That’s actually an important aspect for Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I don’t mean that you need good video quality or sound quality in a video to make Dragon NaturallySpeaking work. However you do need a good microphone, and it should be a noise canceling microphone at that. The better the sound quality, and the better able your microphone is to remove other background noises, the better your system will be able to recognize the words that you say as fast as you say them and transcribe them accurately.
Now Dragon NaturallySpeaking comes with a noise cancellation microphone that works very well when you buy it out of the box. Drew is working with a download version that does not come with a microphone, and so he had to supply his own.
As I write this article, I am using a wireless headset microphone from Logitech. I’ve been using Dragon NaturallySpeaking for almost two years now, but I’ve just recently untethered myself from Dragon NaturallySpeaking and started using a wireless headset microphone with noise cancellation capabilities. Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 does have the capability of working with Bluetooth wireless microphones, but my particular microphone runs on 2.4 GHz wireless technology. Now if you live in a household or work in an office environment where there are a number of systems or phones or microwaves, you may experience some interference with this particular headset. In that case, you will probably be better served with either a Bluetooth headset or a headset that is capable of being plugged directly into your computer through the microphone plug or through USB. I don’t have that issue, and so I do get excellent quality with little to no interference at all.
So if you take an interest in Dragon NaturallySpeaking and want to try it for yourself, I highly recommend that you get a boxed version of the software which you can order from Nuance online. You can even get a good deal on a Bluetooth wireless headset and a bundled option from Nuance. If you’re looking for entry level pricing, you can start using the software and get a headset microphone for as little as $99.
To put that in context, I’ve taken three typing classes over the years to boost my typing speed and spent essentially three semesters practicing at typing. It wasn’t the only thing that I studied, but I spent a lot of time building up my typing skill. With Dragon NaturallySpeaking, you can invest $99, invest an hour installing the software (I’m being very conservative with that time estimate) and as little as 10 minutes training the software to recognize your voice before you can be off and running typing at 150 words per minute!
That is pretty amazing, and well worth the value of $99. Not to mention if you spend a little extra and get a wireless headset microphone, you can pace around your room or your office, you can exercise, or do a number of different things other than sit at a computer desk staring at your computer all day long. $99 basically gives you your freedom.

The Four Episode 24 is to be the final episode and then Easterly Showers will come on next to replace it. Just for your info .. i will be staying at work instead of going to the Halloween party that we were invited to .. by my brat’s classmate.. so that i can find the link and put it up for all of your viewing. See how nice i am.. muahahhhhaha!! ok lah.. gotta blow my own trumpet.. since you all watch the show.. but never leave me any comments.. boohoohoo..! not even a hi.

So stay tuned for the final episode of The Four..! i can’t wait to see the ending.. what about you ..??
I don’t know about other people but when i was much, much younger.. i loved stuff like this.. and in fact. .i craved on being different.. to impress my teachers and even my bosses. Ya..! how weird is that right..?? Not quite.. if you noticed… a lot of trendsetters are this way.. they liked to be different. For me.. i loved stuff like that.. but the man.. he loves functionality, as long as it works… it doesn’t matter what it is.
Well.. for the unique ppl out there.. this is for you.. and it’s really cute ain’t they..?? for 50 clips a box.. cost less than $6 .. i’ll say get one just because. Where do you get them..?? Spoon sisters.. i believed.
Lately I have been having a lot of traffic because I have been writing about some Chinese shows from back home. The host that I was with kept going down and one day last week it went down for the whole day. I couldn’t do anything about it and you know how it is with us bloggers, we need to get to our blog and disseminate the information as quick as possible. I truly felt handicapped because I thought we had chosen the best. But when we had problems with the down time the only advice my host was able to give me was to upgrade to a private server.
If you are like me or encounter such a problem, a webhosting blog where you can find more information about who is more reliable, who has the best prices and features is where one should go to. Web Hosting Geeks shares a lot of information with you and lets you know where to find the best budget hosting around. They also compare and explain the differences in the various hosting plans that are available. I am looking for a new host and if you are too then you should give these guys a shout on their forum when you finished checking out the blog. Checking with friends is great but you know you can get the best information on this site for they do their research very thoroughly. Having a second opinion from your friends is a good idea too though, make sure you know what you’re getting into before signing up with a webhost.
Some of you might think that I’m only interested in entertainment news, but yer wrong. If you don’t know by now, the spouse and I own our a computer, games and entertainment store in our small town of 8,000 or so in population. Therefore, even being an owner by association, I always need to keep updated on certain gadgets and technology news, that way I don’t look so blur when people ask me questions. Also I want to be able to carry a somewhat intelligent conversation with our customer/s.
The Gadget Advisor is a place that someone like me can go to for updates on the latest and the best. Unlike other sites that give you everything and anything which can be quite tedious to read, here the info selectively the best. This site is relatively new but has great potential and they have a cover a wide range of reviews such as the Harmony universal remote control and also online backup services which I found extremely useful for anyone who works with computers. I know the information on the network media players is something that I had been asked about many times by our customers and now I can make my recommendation based on the review given by Gadget Advisor. If you are a techy chick like I am then check it out, I’ve bookmarked this page and recommended it to my girlfriends from home.
I have been getting alot of enquiries about the Sony Ericsson W581i Pink Phone .. so here is how it looks like for real. Like i said in my previous entry, this phone is ultra light and it’s pretty too. The only thing that is not so good about it.. is the keypad .. it’s easily messed up.. and you have to press really hard on it for text messaging.
This is how the back looks like, i get a email or two every week.. about how the back looks like. Pretty simple.. pinkish in color.. and stylish.
So it slides open .. and i’m sure you know it.. but you also get to see it’s keypad here. Length wise.. it’s quite ok.. but if you have stubby fingers.. you can forget about text messaging.
This is how it looks like.. from the back. when it is opened. I hope you find the pictures useful.. and the explanation clear enough.
Order Up, a new cooking game for the Wii, is now available to buy and to rent!! I’d buy it of course, everyone is playing the Wii and if you haven’t bought one yet, you should go out and get one. I know that this cooking game is great for both children and adults, for me it will be a great way to interact with my daughter. Although she is only 4.5yrs old I know she will be able to handle this game. Lately, she has been playing waitress, so I am pretty sure she will be delighted with this game.
By using the Wii mote you get to slice & chop vegetables, flip burgers and of course cook and slice the french fries. Everyone loves french fries… I bet kids my daughters age would be so thrilled. Everyone starts from the lowest rank in a fast food restaurant and you have to learn new recipes and try to move up and get promoted till you own your own restaurant. Take a look at the Order Up! Trailer and see if you will like it or not.
Personalized your laptop.. ??? you can now..! so can I .. !! love some of these laptop skin so much.. gotta share with you. Cheap.. and affordable.. it is easy to apply and remove. A really cool way to makeover your laptop. Many styles to choose from and although it says that they are removable and reusable. .i doubt i would do that.. too messy with the sticky skin eh. Made of high quality vinyl and and great removable adhesive and only intended for the top of the lappie. Comes in wide range of sizes.. starting from $19.99 at Schtickers.com
I get asked so often about which web hosting company I use for all my blogs, mainly by friends and customers at our store. I know for sure that if I had some reference at the time of choosing my current webhost .. i would definitely have given it more thought.
I usually tell my friends or anyone who asked me that a good hosting review site that does hosting ratings like webhostingrating.com is a good place to go when you are trying to get a new host or change your existing one. On their review site you can find current pricing plans, the features offered by the various host companies and hosting reviews by users and so on.
My girlfriends ask me all the time about what I use for my web hosting and how much it cost. They also like to know how easy is it to work with my hosting company, like with setting up databases and blogs. And like anyone who is new and not technically inclined I needed some help in making my choice when I first started.
Re-redirecting them to find reviews on the top web hosting companies was easy because I found all the information I needed from this free research guide. It is easy to make comparisons on this site because they have the price listed, how long the company had been operating, set up costs and just about any question that someone new will ask. They even have a learning center for those who want to learn more about cheap hosting, domains and bandwidth. Very informative and very useful. Check them out.
$99 basically gives you your freedom.
