The Twitter feed can be very noisy. That is why I encourage those who are getting started with Twitter to use lists. The earlier one starts using lists the better, because when you have thousands or even hundreds of followers, grouping them to bring sanity to your feed can be a nightmare. If you are a Twitter newbie, here are the simple steps you need to start working on your lists.

Over the past 6 months my partner and I have outsourced IT projects to companies and freelancers in the United States as well as in India. The projects ranged from a simple website design to complex stuff that required months of work. When we started we had no idea what to expect. We were kind of experimenting to find out as much information as possible about the outsourcing business as we are planning to do most of our future projects through this method of work.

Getting started on Twitter can be a daunting task. Believe me, I know what I am talking about. It took me a few years to have enough courage and knowledge before I started using Twitter. I had no idea how to get started, who to follow, how to tweet, etc. We all know that getting started is the most important and also the most difficult step to take. But without taking that first step you can't achieve anything.

Improving productivity by replacing bad habits with good ones is something that I enjoy doing. In this post I will focus on tips and tricks for making running a habit. Mind you, I hadn't been running for almost 20 years when I decided to start running again. So this post will not be very useful to those who are already in shape. My aim is to replace television watching with running.

I am sure I am not the only one having this problem, but of late I have noticed that the stuff I have to do just keeps piling up. Since I don't have the power to stretch the day to a little more than 24 hours, which would be ideal for my needs, I have been trying to find ways to maximise the use of this non-renewable resource called TIME. I came to the conclusion that since there is just too much to do, the first step would be to weed out those tasks that I believe to be less valuable than the time I would have to input to accomplish them.

Outsourcing content creation is a hot topic at the moment. Everywhere I go I here people talking about how outsourcing improves productivity and why we shouldn't be wasting time doing tasks that can be outsourced because their value is less than the value of our time.
