How to and How Not to Get People to Work Happily and Productively

There is such a thing. I was comparing the difference between Fring and Skype for ease of download, installation, use, ease of managing settings and de-installation. I called 6 CXOs to discuss the title of this blog post at the same time. I plan to write about both on my TMC blog some time in June.  For now...

Some videos on Youtube that focus on CXOs and human resources:

How to Motivate at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA-ifiDuvls ... usually sitting on the front row and aware of everyone around you... are they asleep, awake or using their Blackberry. "Thank God, I am alive today. Let's go make another spreadsheet."


Funny! Advice to managers: use big words, tell your employees what they should be doing even though have never actually done what they are doing for 10 hours in a row, always find soemthing wrong with what your people are doing or else ... why are you even there? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYtFI8hXwiA


CEO Rob Davidson on leading in a flexible work environment ... over a 90 person recruitment firm at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmFp2mgh2WQ ...  "A Road to Damascus experience."

Idiot CEO? 123 of Great Teamworking ... a bit funny ... I watched this and thought ... it looks like he is doing everything for his team. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxySwKKp-xs

Technologically-Challenged Dude Wants to Simplify Communications, Help!

With so many IP communications-related experts on our DIDXchange and in my social/business Twitter, Linkedin and Facebook networks, I'm inviting all of these to help the following person get what he needs. I am copying his blog post "word for word."

Title: Technologically-Challenged Dude Seeks To Update/Simplify His Life, If At All Possible


Body:  I wear many hats: Husband, Coach, Marketer, Technician, Communicator...and sometimes I put on a few more as they fall to the ground and I pick them up. 

To this point in the game I've done rather well with the technoloigies I've had at my disposal. However, it's come to my attention that I could be a little more efficient, and perhaps spend a little less coin, if I were more aggressive in the use of emerging technologies, such as WiFi, VoIP, and so on. But, given my limited understanding of what might the best blend of price, stability, and ease of use, I have decided to ask the world of technologically-proficient people (I was going to use the term GEEK, but some folks don't like that) what their opinion might be.

Here's what I have at this point in time: 

Home telephone - VoIP (provider unnamed) - we get less than a dozen calls a week, and miss most of them because the calls come while we're at our job, at a run or workout, or traveling.

Computer - Toshiba laptop, running Windows Vista, plus a mix of Microsoft, Apple and open source applications. Wireless capability, cable internet provider.

Cell phone - simple CDMA cell phone (the very savvy will know my provider!). I cannot take my phone into my work place, so it's only used when I'm away from work (sit in car, check messages before driving to work, at lunch, before driving home, before/after workout). When I'm out and about I do carry it with me, though.

I recently purchased a 32GB iPod Touch, which - believe it or not - isn't a bad little gadget. Originally I bought it because of the music I want to have available at races and events (one of my other "jobs" has to do with race operations for a race production company...basically means I fill the gaps as needed...get 'er done kind of stuff). It's basically an iPhone without calling capability. It has WiFi capability and I've got some of the social networking apps downloaded, i.e., FB, Twitter, TweetDeck. I also have Skype on it. I found a piece of software for timing and scoring races, which is available only in PalmOS and the iPhoneOS.

WHAT I WANT:
I want to simplify my technology! I know I probably can't get a one-size-meets-all needs kind of gadget. I want to be able to get things done without having to be stuck within someone's WiFi limitations. I want to get as much as I have now, and perhaps a little more, without spending so much, or sending the money to a lot of different people and often overlapping services. If I could get it all from one provider and one device that is mobile enough and small enough but not too small, it would be fantastic.

So, what can you guys tell me?

How to Get 24/7 WiFi No Matter Where You are on iPod Touch, asks Husband

My social network on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and other offline and online groups are full of mobile experts, so ... my husband is asking: "FB universe, especially those with iPod Touch players...I love the apps I can download, WiFi capability, etc. But it's a bummer in an area where free WiFi network doesn't exist or is impossible to connect. Anyone know of a WiFi "card" which could plug into the input at the bottom? Please don't tell me to purchase an iPhone, I'm not ready to part with my cell provider...yet."


Thank you, http://the-gadgeteer.com.

How many Mb are in a Gb?

I'm in a discussion at the Starbuck's in the Destin Commons in Florida. My husband and I are her for the Ironman Triathlon he is participating in. I'm working, but took a break to discuss the following ... One lady has a Verizon wireless USB card. She says she has used 802.539 Mb of her 5Gb allocated to her plan. She wants to know how many MB are in 1 Gb. She's worried that she's almost there. As I can remember the following is true, but there is quite an argument here so maybe I'm wrong?

1024 bytes is equal to 1Kb

1024 Kb is equal to 1 Mb

1024 Mb is equal to 1 Gb

Right?
