Hola…
March 6th, 2007I am learning Spanish!!! One of my friends created interest for Spanish in me. Actually, I was learning few basic words for last few months. But finally today I made the move and purchased one wonderful book… “Teach yourself Beginner’s Spanish” by Mark Stacey and Angela Gonzalez Hevia. I will try to keep posted my learning here… Stay tuned…
Hasta luego!!!

The Shiftkey FAQ
March 5th, 2007The Shiftkey FAQ - Version 0.001
by Alan Meiss
Unleash the Power of Shift!
Q. My shift keys have little arrows on them. Does that mean the *real* shift keys are located above them, and these keys are just little signs to point them out?
A. Nope, they’re the Real McCoy. The little arrows mean “up”, as in “look up at the screen”. Your keyboard is telling you to learn to touch type and quit staring at your fingers.

Three elements of communication
March 5th, 2007today I come across one wonderful paper on verbal-nonverbal communications…. as per the Mehrabian rule, there are basic THREE elements of face-to-face communication,
- words - 7%
- tone of voice - 38%
- body language - 55%
each of these three accounts for 7% - 38% and 55% of total communication….
Ohh, so I think I have lost 93% (38% + 55%) already and I am not sure about even 4% of remaining 7%!!!! hmm, that is why the task is so difficult ….
