A friend once told me that to get things done, it is money and time. If you have no money, then you have to spend time. The important theme online though is to leverage someone else's audience. Adwords, SEO are all leveraging Google's audie

I think it is not because the Flash runtime lost, but because WebKit has achieved ubiquity. Think about it, the reason we needed these runtimes in the first place is because web browsers have their own quirks. However, with WP7 languishing

I'm surprised no one made any mention of what this bright person knows in the first place. One of the best ways to teach is to map known concepts to new concepts. For instance, I might introduce methods to people who already know what funct

If you execute two businesses in a single company, you subject each other to increased risk. Somebody suing her company will go after your assets. My advice is to set up separate companies. You can share facilities etc. But don't ever run t
