Email Etiquette

In a nutshell...consider these...
  • Experiment with three-sentence emails for a better response rate.
  • Start with action-oriented steps, don't leave them at the bottom of the email.
  • Market your subject lines--make them an advertisement to open and read the email.
  • Take disagreements offline.
  • Don't "reply all" unless everyone needs to be involved.
  • Use numbers for reference in back-and-forth correspondence to reduce redundancy and length.

Life is great, Disconnect and enjoy.

This is something worth watching...quite a different way to look at things.

A way to download Youtube videos!

A number of days ago. I have been searching for a program or a software that can easily download Youtube videos for offline viewing or even for later watching onto the iPad or iPhone.

Finally found this freemake.com program and it does exactly that. A quick and easy by copying and pasting the web address (Youtube), and also comes with an option for saving in different file formats like MP4, AVI etc. Magic!

If you don't want to download any program, an alternative is to use this online version of ZAMZAR (Free Online File Conversion).
