The role the United Nations organisation plays in today’s world which is plagued with numerous problems such as the economic and food crisis, terrorism, ethnic wars and natural disasters is very significant. This

Development Goals (MDGs) are compelling evidence of…

It seems like everyone these days is downloading, watching, and sharing videos from video-sharing sites like YouTube, Google Video, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, Veoh, Break, and a ton of other similar sites.

Whether you want to watch the video on your iPod while working out,

insert it into a PowerPoint presentation to add some spice, or simply

download a video before it’s removed, it’s quite essential to know how

to download, convert, and play these videos.

When I was in elementary school I was very annoyed by all this studying. But my idea and hope was that once I was done with school, I would also be

done learning. I couldn’t wait.

Thus I was rather irritated when I heard that my dad had to complete training for his job to learn new things. I remember I asked him when one would be done learning and the

essence of what he said was of course never. Bummer!

Some 20 years later I’m still a…

The entire World Wide Web can be seen as an informational ad reference source. But when it comes to kids, the nature of content presents a

challenge of comprehension. You cannot tell a kid to go to Wikipedia and

find out about “plastics” for instance. Well, he or she can, but a

phrase like “semi-synthetic organic amorphous solids” would be beyond

the grade level of many kids.

To revise the information to the level of a child’s knowledge requires effort on…

The wallet is a bit bare but the heart is in its right place. Enter the online games which are proving to be a novel way to show your social

side by giving to charitable causes. Games are being redefined. They are

no longer about fun and entertainment. Now, it’s about online

simulation, distance education, and training for a vocation. So, why

shouldn’t philanthropic causes pick up the idea and run with it.

Most of the web runs on the wagon train of…

Playing some computer games with your toddler online is a good quiet and…

I've seen "The Social Network" twice and plan on seeing it again at least two more times. I am taken by this movie. It took me about a week to understand consciously why. There is so much jammed into this

film that it's hard to take it all in in one sitting. Ever since I

walked out of the movie on opening night, I have been more inspired than

ever to continue my entrepreneurial path in technology, media and

textiles.

As an entrepreneur watching this film,…
