We live in a world of constant change. New technologies, new ideas, new ways of doing things is always discovered everyday in order that our businesses might become more profitable and more responsive to our customer’s needs. A new way of doing things in this age of information technology is what we know as the concept of outsourcing. This is applies not only to outsourcing certain types of jobs but outsourcing equipment and machinery. Before, companies used to buy all their machineries and equipment. Nowadays, renting instead of buying is more sensible since you do not need to spend for maintenance, upgrades or shoulder the cost of depreciation. This will let you save in the long run for as long as the rental price is reasonable. This is most especially applicable when it comes to information technology products. A good company to consider is Twin Cities Digital or TCD. This Minnesota based company has over 20 years experience of marketing computer products worldwide. … [Read more...]
Where we spent our Holy week (2008)
For all Filipinos, whether, Catholics, Protestants or Muslims, we all have one thing in common, Holy week means a long vacation for all of us. Personally, I did not want to go out on Holy week for a vacation. I was thinking that I will spend time finishing my book, promoting my blog or spend my time watching some movies.

I was about to make a reservation when my parents called. They asked me where we will spend our Holy week. I told them about our plans.

Buying, selling, or renting Condo hotels
Condo hotels are usually high-rise buildings developed and operated as luxury hotels. The concept has been around for quite some time and is found in almost every country around the world. In essence, Condo hotels are really hotels that have condominium units which are sold to someone who wants a vacation home. The owners can opt to keep the units so that it will be available to them anytime they want, or they can rent it out to the hotel so that the hotel management can use it just like any other hotel room. In most of these arrangements, the owners are given a number of free days in a year to stay in any available rooms in the hotel, so that he will still have someplace to stay as his unit is being rented out. Personally, I consider condo-hotels as a good investment for several reasons. First, we all know that the price of real estate always goes up.
