Looking for a job? Start blogging!

Sacha Chua got her job with IBM because she blogs. Here are her tips.



And if you are wondering what is this "Generation Y" she is talking about, don't bother searching for the answer. I have that covered!

Death by PowerPoint

So, you managed to pick up the skills you need to create great images and photos. Now what are you going to do with all them other then posting them in your blog?

Learn again. This time from Presentation Consultant, Alexei Kapterev, to create your own chair tipping presentations.

Good photos? Create your own.

Remember the site I recommended where you can get free photos for your articles?

I noticed that the resolutions of some of the photos I chose were low and they do not look sharp when posted on my blogs. So, if you are the kind who prefer to create your own images but just need a little tweaking on your skills, I have discovered just the site to go to for free lessons.

Zach Holman has listed tens of thousands of tutorials for Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator and many other useful topics on Good-Tutorials.

I will have to find the time to learn something from this site. Till then, I have nothing to show off on this post of my doing.

Lifestyle of Vijay Mallya

I have not check out if the information here is true but it is a good slide to look at now and then if you need some motivation to work towards a better lifestyle. Who wouldn't want to live in a dream home like this?
