Gabrielle A Barnett Why is it so difficult to share your feelings with someone?

Can Feelings be Difficult to Share Amongst Friends?

They can be for some people.

Feelings might be difficult to share because afterall a sound, honest ear is needed first. Perhaps being burnt by someone before now, has brought hesitation and mistrust.

Or is is possible you have lost your courage to share?

Do you know someone in your everyday life

Dean Stewart Parents Responsibilities Extend to the Internet Too !

Parents who have children under the age of 18 at home are 'Internet Parents'. As such, they have a responsibility in managing what can be accessed by children on the internet. The entire spectrum of human behaviour can be found on the internet from the most noble to the most debauched. As parents, we cannot monitor our kids internet activity all of the time, yet by installing parental control software, we can at least play our part, in limiting harmful material from being viewed. Instant Messa… Continue

Onno Knuvers AnimFX 2009

Just came back from windy Wellington after attending the Animation Development Master Class hosted by Sander Schwartz and Rita Street at AnimFX 2009. The landing into Wellington was pretty interesting, with the strong northerly wind it felt like a roller caster and my stomach was in my throat half the time but the Air New Zealand pilots got us there in one piece so two thumbs up to them. Hearing Sander and Rita was amazing, they were funny and were happy to share their experience and knowledge.… Continue

Do you want to be one of the crazy headless chicken-types this December? Or would you prefer to be one of the calmed, chilled, unfrazzled variety? Well which one did you choose to be?

Dean Stewart How Concerned are Companies with Regard to Internet Surfing by Staff?

Each company has a different policy regarding internet use. Some will lock down access to only a few sites, while others may have an open access policy. Others may deploy access rules on their firewall or use a hardware appliance to block certain categories from being accessed. Internet abuse is common, and habits can be hard to break. Even a staff member spending 45 minutes to an hour per day can build up to alot of lost revenue and productivity for a company. Businesses now have to contend w… Continue

Suzanne Carter What Is Web Usability and Why Do I Need To Know About It?

Web usability covers a broad range of areas but generally it focuses on ensuring you keep visitors on your website and help them achieve their goals. In many cases you can make improvements to your site by adding or altering content, and in other cases a web designer may be needed to make technical changes.

Marion Jackson REAL ESTATE AGENTS CAN PROFIT FROM WORKING WITH A VIRTUAL ASSISTANT

Real Estate agents are arguably some of the busiest people in the business world, needing to spend valuable time on marketing themselves, marketing their listings, working directly with clients and following up after a sale. The more successful a Real Estate agent is, the more administrative tasks they create and the more time they spend on administrative tasks, meaning there is less time to generate new revenue. Too much administrative work can become exhausting and time consuming. It can tak… Continue
