New Air Ticket???

Not a bad design at all, I like this. Very stylish and modern look. But it would be good if they use less bag and have something more environmentally friendly.

Business Ideas (Gadgets) Inside Out Umbrellas

Are you one of those who hates to bring umbrellas, finding it cumbersome with water still clings to the surface after use. Or finding it troublesome to carry around. Well now this foldable umbrella might be your solution. With a small bag attached, it can be use to contain the water and let you carry around like a handbag, instead of hooking to your arms.

What do you think?

And the convenience just stop there, because you need to find a stirer to mix. But this design by Hye-Yeon Choi instant coffee satchet is really straw containing the instant coffee powder. After pouring the content into the cup, you can use the straw to stir.

Business Ideas (Entertainment) - Weeknight Clubbing for 9-5 crowd

Did I hear any horrays out that? I guess clubbers will be thrilled with this. No cheers from me, cos i dun club but this may be a good business idea though.
================================

Nightclubs may operate seven days a week in many cities, but working professionals who partake in their late-night offerings outside of the weekend tend to regret it the next day. With such schedule-bound partiers in mind, Toronto's Gladstone Hotel recently launched an earlier alternative that still lets revellers get to bed on time.

The Gladstone's Granny Boots series of dance parties take place each Wednesday night beginning at 7:30 and ending promptly at 10—"so you can go home, watch 'Law and Order' until 11 pm and go to BED," as the hotel puts it. The events are held in the Gladstone's Melody Bar, which is already famous for weekend karaoke nights, and feature different performances and
livingroom DJs each week. Admission is free.

We also spotted something similar in Belgium, where Bart Van Orshoven's After Work Parties draw large crowds—and corporate sponsors—in various venues in Antwerp, Gent, Leuven and Brussels. The parties start at 7 pm and doors close at 9 pm to ensure a decent-sized crowd from the start. At 1 am, everyone is sent packing.

Of course, in addition to the legions of business people and other working stiffs out there who can't afford to stay up late, there's also the substantial crowd of older people who still like to party but simply don't want to be up during the wee hours. Catering to such consumers could be the key to attracting a whole new segment. As the saying goes, the early bird gets the worm—or, in this case, the entertainment dollars! ;-)

Employee - Company's Most Valuable Assets

I think the most under-rated assets in a company is human resources, and also the most difficult to assess value. Most companies failed to comprehend this and I find they tend not able to go far or grow big.

I wonder is it their ego that caused them not to value employee other than themselves or that they just dun see the importance of it. In any case, to have staff resigning or failure to attract capable staff can cost the company their future.

I guess this is why Google provides such good facilities and working environment. After working with them, I bet no one wants to leave.
