Over 100 Quick and Easy Healthy Foods. Timeboxing. Timeboxing is a simple time management technique I use often. I first learned about it in software development terms. Let’s say you have a fixed deadline for a new product you need to release, such as an annual upgrade to software for calculating income taxes. You must have a new version ready by a certain date. So you’ll probably use timeboxing for your development cycle, meaning that you do the best job you can within the time available.

What new features you can implement are totally determined by the time frame. Slipping the schedule is simply not an option, so if you get behind, you must cut features. In terms of managing your own tasks, timeboxing can be a helpful technique. First, let’s say you want to get something done, but there’s a risk it could end up taking far more time than it’s worth because it’s the kind of task where you might exhibit perfectionist tendencies. As an example I use timeboxing when doing my Christmas shopping each year. Site Build It! 10 things you should do to every Windows PC. Version 0.3 beta. Windows-Tools on CD-ROM.

Since Google made its debut in September 1998, the web designers, developers, programmers, and consultants of this world have been going crazy ensuring that their websites are "Google friendly". Just how do they do it? Making a website "Google friendly" refers to optimising every single element on every single page of the site by paying more attention that what you'd need for threading string through the eye of a needle.

And to stay with that needle idea, once you've totally optimised your site Google will easily be able to find your needle (your site) in the haystack known as the Internet. In other words, if you optimise your site well, your site will rank well in Google. A Unique Ranking Method The foundation of Google's ranking method is PageRank (PR), named after Google co-founder Larry Page (not after how pages rank).

For example, Google.com, at the time of writing this, has about 328,000 inbound links. So, How Can I Rank Well? Content is another big one. Getting Inbound Links. World Domination for Small Web Businesses. Most Web designers define their target market as either: "Small to mid-sized businesses" Or:"People who can be reached through word of mouth from clients and colleagues" Both these “target markets” cost Web designers revenue, time and money. This article explains why. Then, it shows how to focus on a specific target market to increase revenue, cut marketing costs, and make business development easier and more effective.

Why Small to Mid-Sized Businesses Are Not a Target Market First, “small to mid-sized businesses” are not a target market. There are about 14 million small to mid-sized businesses in the United States alone. Their business development efforts are scattered and expensive. Why People You Can Reach Through Word of Mouth from Clients and Colleagues is Not a Target Market “People you can reach through word of mouth from clients and colleagues” is not a target market, nor is it a very powerful marketing strategy. The Alternative …And Its Benefits How to Select a Target Market. Welcome to WebKEW! Help : Cheat Sheet. Information architecture. Information architecture (IA) is the structural design of shared information environments; the art and science of organizing and labeling websites, intranets, online communities and software to support usability and findability; and an emerging community of practice focused on bringing principles of design and architecture to the digital landscape.[1] Typically, it involves a model or concept of information which is used and applied to activities that require explicit details of complex information systems.

These activities include library systems and database development. Historically the term "information architect" is attributed to Richard Saul Wurman,[2][page needed] and now there is a growing network of active IA specialists who comprise the Information Architecture Institute.[3] Definition[edit] Information architecture has somewhat different meanings in different branches of IS or IT: The structural design of shared information environments.

Or, worse, you haven’t set any goals at all and are taking a passive, "wait and see" approach.You say you want to take your business to the next level, but never develop a plan to do it.

Rmulhern, 2MB is PHP default and the value used here on TCH's servers, it's not the maximum PHP can handle. As Tangentidea said, you can change that setting in .htaccess Tnagentidea, as for your problem with MySQL, the MySQL manual says: Quote A communication packet is a single SQL statement sent to the MySQL server or a single row that is sent to the client.In MySQL 3.23, the largest possible packet is 16MB, due to limits in the client/server protocol. In MySQL 4.0.1 and up, the limit is 1GB.When a MySQL client or the mysqld server receives a packet bigger than max_allowed_packet bytes, it issues a Packet too large error and closes the connection.

It also says you can change that configuration option but you need to do so through MySQL's console or by changing it's configuration file.

The Three Orders The narrative that tells of the first man and woman encountering the tree of knowledge focuses on its tempting fruit. But after we took the bite, we apparently looked up and got the idea that knowledge is shaped like the tree's branching structure: Big concepts contain smaller ones that contain smaller ones yet.

Over the millennia, we have fashioned the structures of knowledge in just such tree-like ways, from the departmental organization of universities (liberal arts contains history and history contains ancient Chinese history) to the hierarchy of species. The idea that knowledge is shaped like a tree is perhaps our oldest knowledge about knowledge. Now autumn has come to the forest of knowledge, thanks to the digital revolution. These differences are so substantial that we can think of intellectual order as entering a third age.

But traditional taxonomic trees aren't something we can throw away without a thought. We may be on the path to finding out. Google Index Notification. PhpGIS is an OpenSource GIS application. Geographic Information System (GIS) The importance of geography to the workings of myriad aspects of our planet cannot be emphasized enough. An increasing number of industries are constantly in need of various geographical facts and data to make important decisions. Take for example a marketing executive trying to figure out a world-wide target audience or a manufacturer working out a global distribution network for his products. Research scientists studying the impacts of various environmental issues and their effects, as well as state heads overseeing the redrawing of a country’s borders also need to have an in-depth understanding of the geographical aspects involved.

These are just a few instances which call for detailed geographical data and material. It is to cater to this ever increasing need that Geographic Information System or Geographical Information System was developed (GIS).

I spent a lot of time trying to come up with an appropriately inventive way to start this unusual version of a "Book Club" (unusual because we wrote the books we're going to be talking about). I failed, so instead I'm just going to jump right in. (Requisite disclaimer: You and I are friends, you blurbed my book, and I think Blinkis a terrific book.

Now let's argue about it.) At its core, Blink is a book about the phenomenon you call "thin-slicing," which is "the ability of our unconscious to find patterns in situations and people based on very narrow 'slices' of experience. " Some people are what you might call experts in thin-slicing, and the book is full of portraits of these people, including John Gottman, who can watch a couple talking for 15 minutes and predict with 90 percent accuracy the future of their marriage, and Paul Ekman, who seems able to read people's minds merely by looking at their facial expressions.
