Samsung Galaxy Note: Change the way you take notes

The Samsung Galaxy Note is a revolutionary new device which begs transformation, whether at home or on the go. In the advent of new devices springing out like roses on a daisy farm, the Samsung Galaxy Note aims to differentiate itself by combining the phone and PDA as one, an entity which brings an entirely new experience to the user.

Harkening back to the early days of the PDA, when resistive screens were the rule of the land and touch pens were still a much included necessity, the Samsung Galaxy Note combines the modern form factor of the iPad with the efficiency of the touch input provided by olden-day PDAs to produce an utterly convincing and useful mix of the two.

It comes with a stylus pen included to write on it, so you can write down notes just as if you were using paper. Running on the 2.3 variant of the popular Android mobile operating system, Gingerbread, the Samsung Galaxy Note has been customized to allow users to draw on the screen and gain access to apps via custom gestures which Samsung has specifically created for the Note.

Using the Note is like a dream come true, especially in my working life. I take a lot of notes in between my trips to different meeting rooms and back, and having to run back and forth to my office to rummage through my cabinet for the appropriate file is a chore, to say the least. With the Note, I can write everything down as a soft copy with the convenience of normal pen and paper input, and have all my minutes, presentations, documents and speeches right in my jacket ready to be fired up whenever I need them.

I would even go so far as to say that I wish I had one in my student days, where I could have replaced my heavy backpack and lecture notes with screen captures and touch screen notes.

With the Galaxy Note’s large screen estate and stylus pen input, my tablet note-taking needs are finally fulfilled. Just by having a Galaxy Note, I am sure you are just one step closer  to be the next employee of the month.

Disclosure: This entry is a part of campaign run by Unruly Media specially for Galaxy Note and is written as honest as possible. 

How to run and manage a business effectively

To run a company that can satisfy both customers and employees, management skill is one of the most important factors that every business owner should have. Some business owners give the best for customers’ satisfaction but always overlook their employees.

Every business owner should not forget that employees are the heart of a business.

If a company has a team of energetic and hardworking employee, the business will go up for sure. The opposite event will happen if the company has lazy workers.

So what are the real secrets to have an energetic and hardworking employee?

Some employees entered a company with good attitude but end up being a lazy worker.

Why such things happen?

Some business owners always think employees behavior as a part of uncontrollable variable. That happens to be true for certain cases.

Most of the times, employee behavior is the result of a company management. If you treat your employees badly, you cannot expect to have productive employees that can bring your business to the next level.

The best example of bad management is to overlook payroll date. Sometimes business owners forget or just like to delay their employees’ payday.

If you are a business owner, please take payroll date seriously. Always pay your employees salary on time so that they will feel appreciated. And once they feel appreciated, they will try their best to work as good as possible and respect you even more.

I know, hiring for management stuff is expensive especially for small business owner. If you really cannot afford management stuff, you should consider to use online payroll services.

Believe it or not, for just USD 40 per month you can have the best online payroll services that can helps you in managing payroll automatically. Why hire an employee to do management tasks for USD 800 monthly when you can manage it by yourself just for USD 40?

Most payroll services can help every business owner in managing paycheck and send reminder automatically. However if you choose to use Intuit Online Payroll, you can get much more features such as these.

One of the strong point of Intuit Online Payroll over other payroll services is their 30 day FREE TRIAL.

I believe no company will provide free trial if their service sucks and not good.

The Three Musketeers evolution

The Three Musketeers is good adventure story that I believe every grown up should at least heard about this story once.

I know the this story but I don’t really understand it. How come there are 4 musketeers when the title only states 3 musketeers.

Maybe because I was a kid during watching it, so I am not really understand what happen and why the three musketeers fought against D’ Artagnan in the beginning of the story.

Is D’ Artagnan a bad guy? Or is the Three Musketeers are the villains?

And now when I watched the new version, I totally grasped the whole story.

I believe the remake of The Three Musketeers is indeed genius since it’s more than remake.

The movie gives enough action, enough romance, and enough fantasy.

It almost like Final Fantasy when you can watch flying ship like this,

The flying ship is equipped with air balloon, and that’s why it can fly.

Aren’t you interested to watch battle scene between flying ships?

Take your chance to watch Orlando Bloom and Milla Jovovich in the nearest cinema before this movie show time end.

Megamind movie review

Sometimes evil-doer is not born to become an evil. Sometimes a human become evil because of the surrounding environment. And sometimes the hoodlum will become a life saver once they is needed by society.

And that’s what Megamind animation movie is about. This a 2010 animation movie but in case you forgot to watch it, I am here to give some reminder. If you don’t want to buy the DVD after reading this review, you can just watch the movie online.

I am sure you will think that animation movie is meant for children. But that is not true at all for Megamind movie. This movie teach you about how surrounding is important for a human character building.

One landed in a human house, and the other one landed in a prison. Then you will see how those two grow up and how environment affected them. Read the rest of this entry »

The best apes movie ever

I know you already watch a lot of ape movies before.

I am sure you already watch King Kong, Planet of the Apes, and others.

However I feel that the Rise of The Planet of the Apes is the best of all.

Before I watch the film, I thought the movie has strong connection with the previous Planet of the Apes. Looks like I am totally wrong.

The CGI done for the apes are truly awesome. And guess what, you will see worthy fighting scene by Caesar; an ape raised by human. Maybe better than Donkey Kong fighting style.

Rise of The Planet of the Apes is more than a normal apes movie.

It gives you strong feeling and probably going to make you feel as part of the apes.

Top spoilers for the Captain America movie

If you had watched Iron Man the movie, I am sure you already noticed the Captain America shield that had appeared in the movie. The answer for the shield is finally revealed in the Captain America: First Vengeance movie.

Damn, this is why I love Marvel movies. They have strong connection between the movies and characters. It feel like you are playing with pieces of puzzle that can only be reassembled once you watch every Marvel movie.

I remind you again, this is a HEAVY spoiler. If you has not watched the movie yet, I am not responsible for any brain damage because of reading this spoiler.

The first spoiler is…

The best ikan bakar in KL

For any restaurant that I went, the ‘ikan bakar’ is usually served with ‘sambal belacan’. So I thought that Ikan bakar must be served with sambal belacan. At least that is what I thought until I went to Sekinchan Ikan Bakar in KL. If you pronounce the name too fast, it will sound lik ‘Shin Chan’. Shin Chan who loves ‘keledek bakar’ and Sekinchan who sells ‘ikan bakar’ is a similarity that quite surprising.

At Sekinchi Ikan Bakar, you can choose fresh fishes, vegetables, prawns, and mushrooms. You choose them just like you buy fishes in the market and then they will grill the ingredients. Be aware though. The prices is a bit pricey but the taste is awesome.

Avira anti virus promotion for 2011

Every anti virus has their own specialty. In term of virus detection, Kaspersky is famous for its ability to detect almost all type of viruses. Kaspersky also get top listing in a lot of websites that review anti virus software. Despite the fact, I still favor Avira over Kaspersky. When I installed Kaspersky in my previous Pentium 4 desktop, the computer run slowly. The virus detection is good but performance is an important aspect too. That is for Pentium 4 desktop. If you use desktop PC with Core2Duo and above processor, I am sure you do not have to worry about the performance issue. Although Avira is light, I see it capability in detecting virus is okay. Just made sure you use the premium Avira anti virus for total effect.

My experience with free anti virus is really bad. During 2007 till the middle of 2009, I need to format my desktop computer frequently. In a matter of a two months after format, my PC will lagged again. At that time it never crossed my mind that having a paid anti virus might do the job. Believe it or not, starting from mid 2010 till now, I never format my computer yet. If you are interested in having Avira and do not know whether to choose the Avira anti virus premium or the Avira premium internet security, it is best if you check what the premium internet security can do.  Read the rest of this entry »
