Collaborating on Business Writing | Alice Keeler

In #business we oftentimes need to collaborate with people both inside and outside of our organization. In particular when #cultures and languages differ, working together on a piece of business writing can be a challenge. Using #technology such as #Google documents to collaborate can ease some of the challenges of working together on a piece of writing. To access Google documents you both need a Google account.

Don't Let Algorithms Rule Your Life

A vintage turntable and a dozen vinyl records can offer so much more than a #computer with access to every song in the world! Those who prefer to use a turntable, choose carefully what artist they listen to. The #album should match the time of day; their current mood; and even helps energise them with what they are doing. They neither skip #songs nor jump to the end of the album. They enjoy listening to the whole album as it was planned by the artist. Meanwhile, those who lis

The 3D American Dream

Snippets from #Botticelli’s Venus feature on Lady Gaga’s ‘ARTPOP’ album cover. A modern twist of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ was run at the Noël Coward theatre in London.

My Customer Service Revolution

How useful is social media? Years ago I signed up with #Twitter, though never really learnt to use it or get involved. This all changed today. I was frustrated with a #company that had recalled an item I had bought that became faulty. I returned it a while ago, but they didn’t send me my money back. I entered the details of my complaint on the website’s “Contact Us,” page, and I got the DO NOT REPLY message promising a reply soon, but still heard nothing. I tried calling th

How to really learn a Foreign Language

How to really learn a Foreign Language

Learning a new #language is tricky #business. It is a process that takes time and perseverance, and the road to #linguistic success is long and full with never-ending classes, tongue-twisting new syllables to master and discouraging moments where native speakers look at you with a puzzled look on their faces, because they have no idea what you just said – and neither did you. But hey, it’s not all bad. Because guess what? Once you conquer those hurdles and actually have your
