1. Yes, I know. We have a strong belief that limits can’t make us feel more creative. But, what if sometimes it helps? Three Ways Limits Can Set Your Creativity Free

Instead of thinking of limits as constraints or as obstacles that block your progress toward achieving your goals, start thinking of them as valuable allies.

Lots of great things have been achieved not in spite of limits, but because of them. Particularly when it comes to creativity, setting limits–or having limits set externally upon you–can set you free.

2. Question: How long should be the post on your blog?

Answer is really simple: it depends. It depends on the target of your blog; it depends on the visitors of your blog. And what’s the most important… it depends on the type of published content.

3.  How to “Connect the Dots” in Your Business

In this post, I’ll describe what needs to happen if you want to connect disparate pieces of information about the same person, organization, or entity. I hope you’ll be further persuaded of both the difficulty and the value of such an effort. The need is widely felt, whether you’re trying to connect the dots on customers in business, terrorists in intelligence, patients in health care, molecules in drug development, etc.

1. Basically, every marketer that I know would give anything if he could know how to win the (unlimited, if it is possible) trust of his clients.  I read today about  10 Ways To Build Trust with Social Media, and I thought  that this is a goo beginning. :)

…marketing is built under the assumption that stories can create an emotional bond between a consumer and a brand… a client and a service. Can you tell a story… create a service and en experience that builds trust?

Social media can help you build that trust.

2. Productivity is all about organizing your time. Period. Do we all know how to organize our RSS? Here’s  The beginner’s guide to RSS

RSS, short for “Really Simple Syndication,” is a valuable tool for web users, but especially for journalists who use RSS feeds to streamline their online reading and newsgathering process. RSS makes it easy to keep track of many different blogs at once and to be notified of breaking news in your beat.

3. Now, there’s a title that got my attention. “ Why “Free” Costs You a Lot More Than You Think”

We live in the internet age, where we’re growing more and more accustomed to getting things for free. Whether it’s information from blogs and online newspapers, services like email and Twitter, or images, videos and music tracks, it’s all free and it’s there for the taking.
