Facebook Linked to Lower GPA?

Facebook leads to lower GPA
Facebook leads to lower GPA?

So is Facebook linked to lower GPA? I don’t think that you need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that being on Facebook – or any other social network for that matter – while studying might just be a distraction that can lead to lower grades. Before there was Facebook, there was text messaging. Before that, there was long chats on the phone with friends. I think that it all boils down to one thing: multitasking.

Employers Prefer Facebook to IQ Tests

Facebook vs IQ Test

So you think your Facebook is locked down to the point that your employer (current and prospective) will not have access to your life. This issue has long been raised and discussed, with people making sure that “incriminating” photos are not accessible to those who are not supposed to see them. Of course, there will always be loopholes. And it really is not all about photos anymore.

With the way things are going, it seems that employers now prefer Facebook to IQ tests in evaluating employees! [Read more…] about Employers Prefer Facebook to IQ Tests

The Small Business Social Media Cheat Sheet

When was the last time you used a cheat sheet? I still remember the days in university when professors allowed cheat sheets during exams. We were ecstatic, only to realize that the problems in the exam were practically unsolvable if you only relied on the cheat sheet.

When it comes to the “real world” of business, there is also such a thing as a cheat sheet. With all the different developments in business and technology, it is only to be expected. The guys at Flowtown have come up with an infographic that can serve as a quick guide for small business owners when it comes to social media.

Get a Facebook Girl Friend for USD5

Will it ever end? I mean the need to show the world – at least your world – that you have a girl friend, or a boy friend for that matter? Some time last year, we heard about Cloud Girl Friend, the automated system which can give you a virtual girlfriend so that you won’t come off as lonely on Facebook.

While it did seem that the service held some promise – after all, there is a huge market for a Facebook girl friend, I suppose – Cloud Girl Friend did not really fly. The main reason for this is that Facebook has a ban on computer-controlled accounts, which is rather understandable. [Read more…] about Get a Facebook Girl Friend for USD5

Choose Your Next Airplane Seat Mate Using Social Media

January 12, 2012 by noemi Leave a Comment

Airplane Seat Plan
Airplane Seat Plan

Anyone who has had to fly coach probably has experienced the nightmare of having an incompatible seat mate. If you are the type who just likes to spend time sleeping, reading, or listening to music, the antagonist in the nightmare is the seat mate who just will not stop trying to chat you up. Even when you pointedly put your earphones on. If you are the kind who likes to meet new people and learn about them, then you might be the antagonist.

Finger pointing will not do any good, though, as we all are unique in our own ways. The only solution is to be tolerant of others, isn’t it?

Think again! If you’re lucky enough to have the option of flying Malaysia Airlines or KLM, you have a chance to pre-select your seat mate on the plane using social media. [Read more…] about Choose Your Next Airplane Seat Mate Using Social Media
