Yahoo! Zimbra Desktop

If you were one of the persons who got affected by the recent Gmail outage, you should know that only the web version of Gmail was inaccessible and people who used email clients to access Gmail had no problems.

To avoid the hassle and problems of another outage, you need to start using an email client. One I can recommend is the Yahoo! Zimbra Desktop, a free and open source app created by Zimbra, a Yahoo! company.

Yahoo! Zimbra Desktop is an offline client that lets you manage your various email accounts in one desktop tool. Zimbra mail, Yahoo! Mail, Gmail, AOL, Outlook and any other work or personal email account using POP or IMAP is easy to set up in Yahoo! Zimbra Desktop. Each account is separately maintained.

Zimbra Desktop is easy to install and use. To find out more about it, check out Yahoo! Zimbra Desktop.

For my 63rd Philippine Independence Day post or now known as the Filipino-American Friendship Day – July 4, 1946, I’m releasing my adjusted version of Banyuhay’s Baybayin Typepad hereby called as Baybayin Typepad No.01.

Yes, as the name suggests this is the first. This great tool was developed by Banyuhay (a blog site written completely in Baybayin / ᜊᜌ᜔ᜊᜌᜒᜈ᜔). This is the first typepad for Baybayin I found and it won’t be the last.

Nordenx is also creating his own Baybayin Typepad. I am also writing my own, two jQuery-based Baybayin Typepad, the first jQuery version is already online (if you can find where I am hosting it, congrats) but it is not ready yet.

Simple instructions are inside, no need to download any fonts as long as you are using Firefox 3.5; Safari 4; and the latest Chrome nightly. Enjoy ᜊᜌ᜔ᜊᜌᜒᜈ᜔ and I hope this will encourage you to love and revive this beautiful writing system that we can call our own.

I woke up a few mornings ago reminded that it’s not how hard you work, it’s how smart you work. Getting chores done just for the sake of getting them done is not always the best way to go. To truly accomplish something worthwhile, you have to focus on what you want and work backwards to achieve it. Figure out what your objective is and create steps that lead up to its completion. For instance, I have a client who goes a million miles an hour doing everything she can to get work off of her desk. She just starts with what’s on top of the pile and works her way down. But what in the pile is really relevant? urgent? important? And what about emails?

I would venture to say the tasks she has to do fit somewhere on a continuum of ’somewhat important’ to ‘very important’, but not all of them are urgent (there are some folks out there, however, who have only a stack of urgent work).

Once she sorts out tasks that can be unloaded, she can focus on what is most core to her business. She will be freed up to work smart – being creative and innovative.

By focusing on getting rid of her busywork (working hard) allowing her to focus energy on growing her business (working smart), she will be much happier completing her objective.

Why Philippines?

Sunday

I love the Philippines. I love the Philippines when it comes to handling voice support and business process outsourcing. Why?

- Large English-speaking population
- Lower infrastructure costs
- Government support
- Strong IT services industry
- Call center environment
- U.S. business hours (24 hour support also)
- Overnight turnarounds
- Similar financial and legal systems to the U.S.
- Filipino and Western culture affinity

I could go on. I’m sure I will in a future post.

People are becoming geeks in 2019.

Microsoft Labs has just put in the video where we can see the future. Microsoft worked with customers, partners and other visionaries to identify the opportunities offered by the technological innovations and to anticipate the behavioral changes of the individuals.
