Feedback from Bosses

Written by: Juanchito

Does anyone else get frustated that their boss can’t give any quality feedback? I honestly can’t remember my boss giving me any good feedback. He’s a great guy, but he really hasn’t helped me in my job. I think I might need to buy him an Employee Appraisals and Reviews program to help him out. Does anyone else have these same problems?

Creating Your Own Google Map Mashup

Written by: Juanchito

Finally, someone made it possible for even a non technical person to be able to create a google mashup on google maps. It’s still in beta, but I really LOVE the idea. I’ve wanted to do this for a number of my own projects recently. My projects aren’t worth figuring out how to access Google’s API’s, but this could be the perfect service for me. One example, is that I want to be able to map out the boundaries of our ward and also mark who lives in each house. That’s what I talk about a church keeping track of its members.

Don’t Think You Don’t Need the TV Guide Anymore?

Written by: Juanchito

My wife tried to pull something on me today when she told me that she thought we should use the TV guide. I of course don’t care about the TV guide anymore because you can see everything that is online using cable. Not to mention, if I wanted to know what was on I can just turn it to the cable channel that lists all the shows on TV.

Well, it turns out my wife wasn’t referring to the TV guide that we know about. Instead she was talking about The New TV Guide. I guess my wife wants to get a nice new TV for football season. The new “TV Guide” is a means of evaluating all your different TV needs. Think about flatscreen tvs, digital tvs, plasma tvs, lcd tvs, widescreen tvs, rear projection tvs, home cinema systems, etc etc etc. How are you suppose to know what to buy these days? The New TV Guide is a good place to start.

I personally hope I can convince her to get a Home Cinema Projector. Wish me luck!

Another Cool Game to Waste Some More Time

Here’s another great flash game where you skateboard and earn points. It was pretty addicting because I wanted to get through the course without crashing and I also wanted to see what else could be done. Don’t blame me if it wastes too much of your time.

The Difference in a Good Can Opener and A Bad Can Opener

Written by: Juanchito

If you’ve ever used a bad can opener then you know that you might as well get out your swiss army knife. A bad can opener can drive you nuts and leave you with an unopened can. You ask why I know? Well, we keep a crappy can opener around just in case we need a second one. I hate when I pick it up.

I really just miss an electic can opener that we got when we got married. I searched around to see about getting an electric can opener and I found something even better. It’s a One Touch Can Opener Even better! I got to try it out.
