First MSN Offer ...

4月

28日

I received the first MSN Offer in my email box this morning. I don't know why I want this or why there is only 30% discount. I'r rather see restaurant discounts. Anyway, Microsoft had to start what others are doing ... very lame. Come on Microsoft, you can do better than this. You are the largest software developer in the world ... I'd like to see something more technical from you.

Seattle Paid Sick Leave Ordinance

4月

27日

City of Seattle is implementing the paid sick leave ordinance starting September 1, 2012. I personally think the city should not be regulation what business should do. But they do have nothing better to do than trying get more people to like then of that they get votes.

There are exceptions this ... If the company is unionized, you do not have to implement this rule. What is with that?

I wonder if this apples to professionals like football players ... They can take 6 paid sick leaves without penalty. Is that mean they can miss 6 home games out of 8? Oh, they are union house ... I forgot.

Good Housekeeping

There are many web sites that has lots and lots of information. Some web sites have hundreds of pages that owner think it is important for their customer to know.

I am sorry to tell you, you can not be more wrong. If you need to give information to a customer, instead of making it on the web site, create a link for people to download eBook and PDF files. People will not spend hours reading your web site.

Besides, having too much information makes your web site very cluttered and complicated. You do want your audience to get the message as quickly and easily as possible. That will make it easier for the search site to rate you as well.

This email is not from American Express. This email is sent to get my information. From time to time, you receive email like this one. Do not click on them.

You must take a look at where email came from first. If it is not the domain name you trust, through it away. Also, if you click them and it open a browser, take a look at the domain name.

It is called phishing and you may receive this type of email from not only financial institutions, but hosting companies, shipping companies, logistics companies and government agencies like IRS. Be very careful.

Mailing Photos

Emailing photos few years ago was easy. Just attached the photos that you can't to send to the email and click send. But now, it is not that easy. For instance, I took this picture with Canon SLR and the original file size of this image is over 6MB. Imagine sending 10 of those pictures ... you cannot not do that with a regular email. You need a special program design to send large files.
