Many of us feel we could do with more sleep. However, the demands of modern life make this dream largely impossible. But there is an alternative. Instead of always wishing we could have time for just a little more sleep, we can improve the quality of what sleep we do get. The following are my tips for ensuring you get the very best quality sleep possible.

Photo: Simón Pais-Thomas I recently sat down with several highly enthusiastic achievers, all of whom have many ambitions. These casual chats revolved around the theme of, “How do I turn my ambitions into reality?” I deeply admired their energy and drive, but it became clear as to why they were not seeing their desired results: Trying to do too much at once. Despite the social illusion that we can have it all, we only have ...Shared by Ananya Walia (560) Ankesh (27) Babychen Mathew (241) Big Jason Henderson (7) chris (285) Daniel (94) digits12 (614) Dimitar D (35) Dragos Pirvu (436) George (6) Gienah Ghurab (14) guoqirui (4) guy (479) Jay (44) John Wesley (46) Jon Phillips (7) Jonathan Fields (12) Justin LL.

Chrome To Get Extensions - Just Not Yet (18)
on
ReadWriteWeb (2609) permalink
Even though we have quickly come to enjoy using Google Chrome after its launch yesterday, we still miss a couple of things from Firefox that Google's browser just doesn't offer yet. Most importantly, Google doesn't yet have any architecture in place that would allow developers to program extensions for it. For Firefox, the extension ecology that developed around it has a been a major contributor to its success and many users who might prefer the ...Shared by AJ (154) Chris (14) Corvida (60) Creeva (25) dd (7) Dimitar D (35) Elroy (21) foolarch (73) Henk-Jan van der Klis (9) Jandy (11) keith (52) Michael Rose (9) Mike F (355) Morton Fox (42) rebrse (127) sarahintampa (79) Wayne (51) wvpv (9)- Chris said: I'm kind of surprised they don't have extensions ready to roll out, since this is such a critical feature of FF. That's pretty much the deal-breaker for me using Chrome. So, not only do we have to wait for Chrome to "eventually start" supporting extensions, but then for the extensions we've come to depend on the be ported. Could be quite a wait.

Mozilla Fights Back With New Firefox Benchmarks (48)

The dust hasn’t even settled on Chrome’s release and already Mozilla is feeling the pressure. The company today released a series of benchmarks showing Firefox 3.1 will be faster than anything Google can muster with Chrome. Chrome is running V8, an open source Javascript engine, which Google claims, is faster than anything currently offered on the Web. And based on our tests of Chrome, we tend to agree. But in the upcoming release of Firefox ...Shared by [Curtis W] (24) Ahmed (53) Alexander13 (313) Andrew Terry (25) Anton Kast (11) Ashwin (5) bill (3) Brian Junyor (38) C.K.

Even if you aren’t anywhere near the sales department in your work, I’d bet that almost every day you need to persuade, convince or find an agreement with another person. A key sales (and life) lesson is simply this: just because you don’t get a response, that doesn’t mean the other person isn’t interested.
