Mushrooms

It looks poisonous … I found them around the company. I need to make sure dogs don't eat or get close to them.

I think this one is called Fly Agaric (Amanita muscaria).

One of our trees has tipped over during the storm. I noticed it this morning. I have to hire someone to clean this mess.

Java Update

Uncheck the Option

Make sure the box is unchecked before you continue.

Why do Java updates always want to make Yahoo as my home page?
If I do, I would have done so myself.
Many people continue without thinking and Yahoo becomes your start up page.
And those people do not know how to make Yahoo not as their start page on your browser.
This is not right. Stop doing that.

Jet Star

11月

In my last trip to Japan (日本)、I flew Jet Star from Kansai international（関西国際空港）to Narita Airport（成田空港）. This was a second or third time I flew this airline. Although, I used it for Japan domestic flight（国内線）, it is a LLC (Low Cost Carrier) airline based in Australia. This trip cost me about the half what it would have cost if I took train（新幹線）.

I am very impressed with their price and services. Currently they only fly in and out of Honolulu, but I wish they fly to Seattle.

Status Quo

11月

18日

When you do thing the same way all day, everyday, often you do not know why. You just do it because you have been doing it the same way as long as you remember.

Is it possible that you can do things better?
If you ca, why don't you try it?

In order to try something new, you need a tool to do so. You need a company which can do the development quickly and inexpensively. PSPINC is that company. We can make things that you only dream about. Just give yourself a chance to do something better.

Status quo

Status quo is a Latin phrase meaning the existing state of affairs, particularly with regards to social or political issues. In the sociological sense, it generally applies to maintain or change existing social structure and values.

When the marketing runs ahead of R&D

It must be hard for German people to know VW cheated on their diesel engines for emission, because diesel engine was invented by German in Germany.

When you run a company that creates, invents and innovates, sometimes sales and marketing run ahead of R&D. It is important to make sure you created works the way the marketing will be saying.

Marketing Message

11月

17日

I just received the following email for the Web development.
I understand what they are trying communicate but I think this is a bad message. Sure, you don't want to compete in just price but your price should be competitive. Also, the fact that this is sent to me, they have done do research on who they are sending this email to. They just purchased the mailing list and blasted thermal. It's just stupid.

A lot of Internet services are starting to appear like a commodity. If you like to stand out, you really need to come up with the message that resonate with people. You need to make sure you are

- Price
- Reliability
- Track Record
- Knowledge
Plus
- Something Special

And you need to convey that message in a shot time and this message is not it.

Yes, there are thousands of web-designers out there. And sure, they offer you
a great price, but what's the real cost?
Many of these fly-by-night developers don't deliver their work on time and
even when they don't just disappear completely, seem unable to return your
calls or emails promptly. And of course, the high quality they promised is
seldom there when they do actually deliver your website or mobile app.

We don't compete on price. We do compete on quality, communication,
on-time delivery and overall professionalism.

Narita Temple

11月

15日

Lasst day of my trip before my 7:00pm flight back to the US, I had time to kill. So, I visited Narita-san Temple. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narita-san ) I have never been there and although it was rainy, you cam tell this is one temple you should visit. From the Narita Station to the temple, there are many street shops and old buildings. It is about 15 minuets walk, but it is something to remember. It can almost take you back hundreds of years in to the past.

Enjoy the pictures.
