Serving a Real Need: the Jollibee Story

[11 Jun 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

This is from the Philip­pine Daily Inquirer. Cool news story on what Jol­libee is doing to help edu­ca­tion in the coun­try. I’ve always admired Jol­libee as a com­pany, and this is one other rea­son to admire them even more.

MANILA, philip­pines–Local firms whine all the time about the dif­fi­culty of find­ing grad­u­ates with the skills needed to make their busi­nesses grow.
Human resource experts say that most of the new entrants to the labor force either know too much of what com­pa­nies don’t …

The Vicious Cycle

[10 Jun 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

Found this really cool video of Dane Cook. You have prob­a­bly seen him in that Jes­sica Alba movie Good Luck Chuck. But he really started by doing really good (although some­times bor­der­ing on the gross) stand-up com­edy. Here he is talk­ing about a dis­cus­sion he had with an athe­ist. For all the athe­ists out there who may feel offended by this video, just learn to take a good joke. I’m sure you have a lot of jokes about reli­gion as well. All is fair in love and war. hehe.

The King’s English and I

[3 Jun 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

Karla Mon­temayor wrote this from Sheffield, Eng­land. This was for­warded to me by Sheryl, one of my office­mates. I really laughed when I read it the first time and I want to share this with you. This is a good read.
The King’s Eng­lish and I
Karla Mon­temayor
I have always had a love affair with Eng­lish, and for that rea­son I write in this lan­guage. I’ve encoun­tered Singlish (the okay lahs of Sin­ga­pore), Deep South Eng­lish (brung and y’all), Japan­ese Eng­lish (no R’s), Ilo­cano Eng­lish (all R’s), and I have never had …

Iron Man vs. Batman?

[28 May 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

I watched Iron­Man and fell in love with it. Noth­ing whets a man’s appetite more than fancy cars, the ladies, and an armor. I just real­ized that Bat­man is a lot like that: fancy cars, ladies, and a really cool armor.
Now, how would Iron Man fare against Bat­man? Hmmm… That’s some­thing that can be up for debate. My heart tells me Bat­man should win (right Nono?), but my head tells me Iron Man will beat the hell out of Bat­man.
What about you, what do you think?

For Boeing, It Takes a Village to Build a New Airplane

[29 Apr 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

Found this COOL arti­cle by Jen­nifer Alsever at BNET​.COM.
It talks about crowd­sourc­ing which is a new busi­ness idea and a grow­ing trend in cor­po­rate strat­egy. Basi­cally, crowd­sourc­ing is all about involv­ing the pub­lic at large to com­plete business-related tasks that a com­pany would nor­mally either per­form itself or out­source to a third-party provider. It can improve pro­duc­tiv­ity and cre­ativ­ity while min­i­miz­ing labor and research expenses.
Using the Inter­net to solicit feed­back from active and pas­sion­ate com­mu­nity of cus­tomers can reduce the amount of time spent col­lect­ing data through formal …
