Yesterday, I realized that I spend more waking time in my home-office than anywhere else. Of all the rooms in my house, it's the most trafficked and I'm still working off of Ikea tables. There's nothing wrong with Ikea tables as far as tables go. They...

Here's a good article on resume writing mistakes to avoid. Nothing earth shaking but a good list of tips to review before you start to write the resume.

I'm pretty fascinated by messaging to different audiences by culture or geography. It's the feeling when you see an international advertisement (by international, I mean non-US...please indulge my American self-involvement for a moment) that makes it...
