Is Recession near by?

Work life Balance with B'Berry's

Blackberry devices and other smart phones may have had a huge impact on executive and employee productivity, but they also have a negative impact on work-life balance by making it more difficult to switch off from the office, according to a recent survey.

The study, conducted by Blackberry maker Research In Motion, found that an average Blackberry user converts one hour of downtime to productive time each day and increases overall team efficiency by 38 percent.

Questions to ask ourselves:
a) Am I working for which is not asked for?
b) Do I need to have company ethics?
c) Does it all count?

Dear Readers,
Please be aware of consequences you are going to face if you sleep with your Blackberry.

Thanks

What's there in Nintendo Wii

The Wii of the future

Nintendo's intention with the Wii was to revolutionize the video game industry by changing the way games are played. The next challenge for Nintendo will be to build on its momentum by outdoing its own innovations.

Nintendo's president, Satoru Iwata, speaking at the at the E3 Media & Business Summit in July, said the company must "destroy the psychological barrier that separates veteran players from novice players."

In other words, Nintendo hopes to capitalize on its expanded market without alienating the core video game market.

Speaking at the same summit, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime said that Nintendo is a "beacon for the entire video game industry," and that video games will soon "take their place alongside TV, movies and music as a staple of leisure entertainment."

Nintendo is hoping that its latest Wii accessory, the Wii Fit, will appeal to the "casual gamer."

Nintendo is marketing the Wii Fit as a product that makes exercise entertaining. It comes with a "balance board" device that players stand on to play exercise-themed games.

But Summa of the Global Gaming League thinks the Wii Fit will flop with devoted gamers. "Hardcore gamers would rather spend their money on a system that appeals to them, like the Xbox 360," he said.

i Care Earth Shirts

We have certain responsibilities as citizens of the global community, on the immense threats posed by climate change and other impacts from our dangerous Co2 emissions. we acknowledge our unenviable status: with a mere five percent of the world’s population, we generate one-quarter of climate-altering emissions, while consuming one-quarter of the earth's energy resources. Therefore, we must take immediate and comprehensive action to greatly reduce our carbon footprint. For the health of Earth’s ecosystems and future generations we must transform the ways we produce and consume energy in our individual households, communities, regions and nation.

We are strongly prepared to respond to this challenge, despite the difficulties of changing our habits. Therefore, we concord on

1. To inform and educate ourselves about the energy we consume -- to know where it comes from, how it is produced, and what impacts that production and consumption has on other families, communities and environment.

2.To change the ways we consume energy in our households and daily lives, to reduce and end the harm to others and the planet caused by unsustainable production and habits.

3. To challenge and support community leaders to change the ways energy is produced and distributed in our community, develop policies and plans resulting in practices that significantly reduce harmful pollution and emissions, with time-bound targets to implement those changes.

Hurray !! We are here with Shirts

Is Google Inc Listening !!!

Well, Google Inc has to take necessary steps to save energy inorder to fight against Global Warning.

Google, which has a white background and gets about “200 million queries a day” could reduce global energy use by 750 Megawatt-hours a year by simply changing the color of its homepage to black.

Here is an instance of how many hours are saved when it turns its page into Black background.
