New Liveajoke

WordPress is simply amazing. We just couldn’t resist ourselves from moving onto a self-hosted WordPress option when we saw WordPress 2.7 coming in with so many features.

So now your favorite site will move to a new website. http://liveajoke.wordpress.com is now moving to http://www.liveajoke.com. Don’t forget to change your bookmarks.

We would gradually be discarding website here and would completely move onto our self-hosted platform. Keep reading our blog and encouraging us. We have set the timeline for this movement to the end of January 2009.

The Changing face of IT

There used to be a time when companies would buy huge servers and used to develop in house softwares as per their requirements and this called for huge investments. Corporates had a budget set aside for this purpose and another part of the budget went into the maintenence of these. But time has changed now.

The other day I was in a discussion with my IT manager regarding a requirement for the new business that we had acquired. I put forward a requirement for a software that would be used extensively. I suggested that we should immediately identify somebody who could develop this software immediately for us. My IT manager smiled at me. When I enquired the reason, he said these days they avoided such headaches and would normally pass this responsibility on to somebody else. I was surprised at what he said.

He then went on to explain things in detail. When he told me about the microsoft crm server and how software and space renting ensured that they received uninterrupted service, I was surprised at the progress that IT had made. microsoft dynamics crm hosting offers a host of services and customization options to business outsourcers like us, thus enabling us to channelize the funds that was normally blocked in software development and server maintenance into other useful things. The way in which hosted microsoft dynamics crm solved our purpose, it could solve yours too. So before going into anything else give it a thought.

The Story of Addiction

It is not uncommon for us to ridicule addicts. I have often been requesting my friends to send me jokes and funny pictures of alcoholics and other addicts. If you are a non-drinker and have a company which is full of drinkers, then you get to enjoy the most in a drinking party. Observing the behaviors of my friends after they have drunk is what I enjoy which I am in such a party. Often these behaviors become the reason for my jokes.

Having said all this the flip side of this – the horror attached with this addictions cannot be contained in it. We seldom realize it because we do not come across such stories very often. I was shocked recently when one of my friend’s relative died due to an alcohol addiction and I wondered how one can get addicted to it.

Treating an addict is not impossible though it could be difficult. With so many good alcohol rehabilitation centers around, the only difficult task is to identify which is the best. After that you can rest assured that they will take care off the rest.

These centers have excellent drug rehab program as well that cures drug addictions like magic. Addiction to banned and prohibited drugs is even more fatal than alcoholism. The reason for this is because the body has been subjected to constant use of a substance that it shouldn’t have been. Hence the body has to be freed of its dependency on these drugs, which is done by the Drug Detox program that is followed by these centers.

Everything is possible, if you are positive and have the will power to go for it. Let me tell you a joke on positivity.

Once the wife of an alcoholic came to a church and met the priest. She said, “Father, my husband is dying of alcoholism. He is not realizing it. The doctors have advised him not to drink but he doesn’t care. Would you please speak to him?”

The father agreed.

The next day, The man came to meet the priest. The priest took out a glass of alcohol and a packet of live worms. He dropped the live worms into the galss and the worms died instantly and then smiled at the man as if proving a point. He asked the man, “What did you learn, my son?”.

The man replied, “I have understood father?”. The priest was happy. He said, “That is good son. Now what did you understand?”.

The man said, “I understood that drinking alcohol, kills all worms and germs in my stomach like it did in this glass. So I should not quit drinking?”

Recruitment Outsourcing

Blogging has helped me in many ways. I was an absolute illiterate when it came to the internet and its resources about a couple of years back. But today I have learnt a lot. I learnt everything about the internet, websites, designing them, making money out of them and living them. My blog – Live a joke, was just a medium for having fun. But as I blogged I learnt from my blogger friends that they use blogs for lot other things and many a time they even get their jobs outsourced. That made me wonder at the power of blogging.

It is not just jobs that are being outsourced but there are people who are outsourcing their recruitments even. One of my blogger friend who owns a small company now, was the one who made me aware about this. His entire office recruitment activity was outsourced. That is where I got to learn about ”Tate”. These people were experts in office recruitment.

For people who are setting up their offices and do not want to get into the hassles of recruitments, ‘Tate’ is the best solution. My friend had initially put in some work into recruitment. When he couldn’t get a receptionist he was fed up and decided to get in touch with ‘Tate’. They knew the exact requirements for receptionist jobs. Before my friend could realize his probelm was solved. Then why would he look for somebody else to get a personal assistant, when he knew that Tate could take care of PA jobs  as well. Their services in all recruitment needs pertaining to office jobs are excellent and my friend had an excellent feedback for them. This is where blogging helps our blogger community. We would never get to know of these excellent services, had we not been into blogging.

In the meantime, read my jokes and live it.

Blog-for-bucks cheaters

I know that this post might not be relevant to my blog, but I am posting this only to make my fellow bloggers aware of these cheats in the blogging space.

I had never wanted to blog for money and that was not my objective when I started to blog. But as I matured as a blogger, I learnt about paid-blogging and accepted a few projects from a few paid-blogging companies.

That is when I received a mail from a “Skylar Sinclaire” from an email address ‘bigbucks@blog-for-bucks.com’ requesting for a few posts in my blog for some money. I had no reasons to doubt their integrity and agreed to the project. They agreed to pay me on a date after about 15 days from the date I made the posts. I submitted the posts and waited patiently for the payment till the due date. When I did not receive any communication or, payment from them, I wrote to the email from where I received the post-requests. I received no reply for this mail and subsequent mails that I sent. Only then did I realize that I had been cheated. These scoundrels request posts and agree to pay you at a much later date so that the links are indexed and their purpose is solved. They then refuse to pay.

All my fellow bloggers beware of such requests. Also do not even consider registering to their site at “blog-for-bucks.com”.

It is indeed reason to laugh at the fact, ‘how money can make donkey of a blogger’.
