Is Google the best search engine?

In Romania, there are a lot of people who use exclusively Google as their search engine. While I respect their point of view, and think that Google is very good, I believe that there are tools that, in some cases, can bring you better results.

I hope you’ve all heard of Del.icio.us, the social bookmarking web application. If you hadn’t, Del.icio.us is just an online collection of favorite links. The interesting part is that you can search through others bookmarks. In many cases you’ll find sites that are really cool, and are not that high in Google’s hierarchy.

Those who use Del.icio.us are above average internet users, with very good skills in finding interesting information. So, Del.icio.us, depending on what you search, can offer you more high quality results…

Success and pragmatism

A few weeks ago, I met a successful business man… After talking to him for about two hours, I decided that I liked him, especially for his pragmatism. He was different somehow from the majority of people that I have met, who either don’t know what they want, or they don’t do what they should do in order to get what they want.

Pragmatism is a key that can drive you to success, especially if you have other important skills and qualities. So, I invite you to think about your life, decide what is important to you, what success means to you. And then, decide how you can accomplish those things, what you have to do daily to get there. And one more tip: don’t procrastinate, start today!
