8/16    Anyone has experience with a company called Orlando Promotions
        (http://www.orlandopromo.com  I got an unsolicited flyer from them via fax,
        which lists a corporate discount vacation package that's very cheap.
        I want to find out if I can trust the company or not.  I can't find
        the company in http://www.bbb.org  Are there any other similar organizations
        that warn the public about bad businesses?
        \_ http://www.bbb.org
           \_ Thanks, but I said I couldn't find it in http://www.bbb.org
              \_ Oh yeah, sorry about that.  Maybe they are OK.  Just google
                 for them or something...
        \_ If it is too good to be true, it almost always is.
           \- there is a news group like ba.consumers you can try, as well as
           the travel newsgroups. i would yuse google and google groups.--psb

4/23    Suppose you used to work at Awesome Corp that got acquired by
        Monsanto Corp. You're embarrassed about it and people now hate
        you by association. Should you put Monsanto on your resume? Or
        is it better to leave it out completely?

3/13    Worker's paradise: "a workplace free of VCs, MBAs, sales, marketing,
        biz dev, endless meetings;"
        http://sfbay.craigslist.org/about/craigslist_is_hiring
        \_ I love management and PMs, the more the better.
           \_ In my company the ratio of product managers to developers is
              about 1 to 5.  I heard that at Microsoft it's about 1 to 1.

3/1     Can someone explain to me why Groupon is a tech company?
        \_ It's similar to how Amazon and eBay are tech companies.
           \_ Amazon and eBay are *NOW* tech companies, they didn't
              start that way. Groupon started off as a marketing
              company, and their "technology" isn't getting any better
              than a bigger and bigger opt-in email spam system.

www.bbb.orgGetting your house in good condition before you sell can demonstrate pride of ownership and could possibly get you a higher sales price for your home. A home that is visually appealing and in good condition will attract more potential buyers particularly those driving down the street. You should view your property through an outsider's eyes.
