„About us” page – how to make it?
You have probably read my previous article, which told you the reasons for which you should be very „real” on your web site:
Now, how to make the „About us” page?
Your profile is 85% complete
On LinkedIn, whenever I fill in my profile, there are always some fields which seem irrelevant to me. BestJobs.ro also has some fields which don’t seem necessary to me. On the other hand, for the fields which are necessary, I’m pretty attentive and I work hard to fill them in correctly. Yet, LinkedIn always bugs me – you’re only 95% complete. BestJobs also insists I should get to 100%. How should things be, in my opinion? Do ask me for more data when I’m below 65% complete. Do always ask for things which greatly improve the user experience, such as a photo for LinkedIn, a current job position, some links to some top sites. Don’t bug me if I’m over 65% complete. Don’t ask for more data. Also, If I’m more than 50% complete, and I filled in all the important data, missing some details, don’t bug me. Don’t force me to put everything on my CV / profile. It’s irrelevant and actually hurtful to both the service provider and the user.
How to behave with a child
Two things: Let’s say a child hits a table. One way to do things is to punish the table. A much better option would be loving the table. Instead of hitting the table, kiss it and kiss the child. If the child is afraid of something, don’t take this away from him, don’t negate the object of fear – „There is no Dark Man.” / „There’s no one in the dark” / „There are no monsters”. Let the child face his own fears.

Tablet vs. Laptop vs. Desktop PC – what to choose?
A comment on LifeHacker web site gives a good hint on this: A laptop was neither powerful, nor particularly portable. I always had to go back to a desktop for heavy graphics and video work. And it was never such a pleasure to lug it around from airport to airport, with a five or six hour battery, making necessary a second battery and charger. Ugh. So I jumped on the opportunity to replace my laptop when the first iPad came out. I had to adjust my workflow a bit, but I found the best setup is an ultra portable tablet and a super powerful desktop. (source + article with more comments
Why at first, you should buy a „test” DSLR?
It seems counter-intuitive: Why buy, in the beginning, only a test DSLR? Why not start with the „real thing” (good body, good lens, blitz etc.)? The answer is simple: By the time you will learn how to decently used all the above (body + lens + lights), you will have wasted a lot of time on a good machine. It actually costs you to have a performing DSLR and not use it at its real value.
