Computer Upgrade



Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend to Husband and noticed a distinct slowdown in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewellery applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend. In addition, Husband uninstalled many other valuable programmes, such as Romance and Personal Attention and then installed undesirable programs such as Rugby, Football, Sailing and Continuous TV.



Conversation no longer runs, and Housecleaning simply crashes the system. I've tried running Nagging to fix these problems, but to no avail.

What can I do?

Signed,

Dear Desperate,

First keep in mind, Boyfriend is an Entertainment Package, while Husband is an Operating System. Please enter the command: 'http: I Thought You Loved Me.html' and try to download Tears.

Don't forget to install the Guilt update. If that application works as designed,

 

Husband should then automatically run the applications Jewellery and Flowers, but remember - overuse of the above application can cause Husband to default to Grumpy Silence, Garden Shed or Beer.

Beer is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta.



Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources).



Also, do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband.



In summary, Husband is a great system, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. It also tends to work better running one task at a time. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Food and Hot Lingerie.


Good Luck,

5 ''REASON'' why you should consider "BLOGGING"


Some argue that blogging is passé, but nothing could be further from the truth. Available tools enable all of us to express ourselves, share our views and especially knowledge and experience with a much wider audience than ever before. 



1. Blogging improves your storytelling skills 

Blogging is about storytelling, either in words, with pictures, videos or podcasts. Storytelling is nowadays essential part of (content) marketing. But storytelling isn’t so much about talent; it’s a skill that needs constant nurture. Practice makes you better. And blogging is a perfect opportunity to polish your storytelling skills.



 

2. Blogging improves your communication skills

By polishing your storytelling skills, you also improve your communication skills. Are you shy, introverted, do you have low self-esteem, maybe you don’t know how to sell yourself? Blogging will help you overcome these obstacles. Communication essentially means to convey information to others. The better your communication skills the better you can sell your ideas, skills and knowledge to others. This is one of the reasons why I started blogging in the first place.






 

3. Sharing is caring

I am a whole-hearted advocate of the philosophy that knowledge is to be shared. Blogging can be a great platform for sharing what you’ve learned and know with others who may be interested in what you have to say and learn from you so they can improve their lives.


 

4. Position yourself as a thought leader

Blogging helps you build corporate and personal credibility. This is how you can position yourself as a thought leader in the marketplace. Indeed, thought leaders are perceived experts and everyone is expert in something. When done right, blogging can give thought leaders great visibility in the search engine results. Therefore, blogging connects you with others. That’s how great blogging can be.


5. Blogging builds your personal information repository

This is another reason why I decided to blog. Every day we are bombarded with tons of information we try to consume. Every one of us has his/her own way of looking for particular information. Blogging, however, helps archive information you will sooner or later need again. I regularly browse my blog and in this way remind myself of issues, solutions, and ideas I might have already forgotten, but are still useful. Sometimes it’s fun and a bit of an ego boost (we all need it from time to time) to check how far you’ve come.

How to Make Your Facebook Timeline Interesting


Facebook Timeline has been one of the biggest changes that Facebook users have had to adapt to. 

And whether one likes it or not, it is here to stay. So here are the 5 most interesting ways to make good use of it.

1. Mapping


 The new Facebook Timeline contains an interesting feature called Maps. This provides location based information on everywhere you’ve been, every trip you’ve taken, every restaurant you’ve visited – all depending on whether you choose to add it. This application not only lets users specify where they have been, but also provide photographs of their shared experiences pertaining to the particular location. This is a great opportunity for the user to display how well travelled they are. One can make this more interesting by adding images of their experiences and tagging themselves with their friends.

2. Cover Photo


Everyone can be a DaVinci because of the new Cover Photo feature of Timeline. This lets you put up an image as a creative expression that best describes who you are and what you are interested in. Many Facebook profiles have done some very creative work when it comes to self-expression. You can achieve the same results with a little creativity and a sound knowledge of Photoshop. Many online applications have, however, made this task much simpler by offering a host of creative templates for the users to choose.

3. Feature Posts Using ‘Star’:


Facebook Timeline now provides an easy way to highlight personalised posts and activities on your page. By clicking on the option at the top right corner of every post, you can choose to give a certain post more importance than the others. To do this, select the ‘Starred on Timeline’ option and the post will increase in size. So, when your friends will browse your Timeline, the featured story will catch their attention.

4. Hide Old Posts


Facebook Timeline has made post accessibility a hassle-free issue. Now, every post ever created or mentioned on the Timeline can be accessed very easily through the activity log. This log provides an extremely detailed account of all the activities ever performed on your Timeline. You can choose to hide certain old posts, and feature certain others according to your liking. To the right of the activity log is a column that lets users position their posts year by year,
also breaking them down to the detailed progression in months.

5. Life Events






With Timeline, when you buy a new car or get a new pet, you can feature the story on Facebook, using the life event application on Timeline. The lengthy list includes educational events, weddings and engagements, new children, siblings or pets, start or end of relationships, death of loved ones, purchase of new property, new roommates, breaking bones, health conditions, new hobbies, getting a driver’s license or a new award, and new travel destinations.
Adding these events will prominently feature your personal life and make your friends share your life as you experience it.

Facebook Timeline is the ‘in’ thing with respect to virtual social living and while it is taking over Facebook, one can use the above mentioned features to make their experience a more enriching one.
