Car Insurance Almost Forgotten

Have you ever had one of those moments when for some reason you suddenly remembere something that you had to do? I had mine this week and I can only say I must have some well organized Angels looking after me. It was my car rego and it was due that day by COB. I hadn't organized any insirance or a vehiclke check for the pink slip...nothing...nada...talk about scramble!

That, quiet frankly is a really stupid and dumb way to buy insurance. Here we have to have what is known as CTP (Third Party Policy) in case we hit someone or damage another car. It has just gone up in price here in Qld a month before my car was due so I had put it off as long as possible and very nearly made it too long!

Moral of the story is "Don't put off until tomorrow what you should do today!"

Anyway, it's the weekend so I hope everyone has a good'un! Have you got your Minglestick yet ready for meeting all those gorgeous hunks/foxes just waiting out there somewhere for you?

Mobile Phones, Phone Charges and Social Networking Contacts

Mobile phones are called cell phones in the US and Canada and here in Australia they come with some heavy call charges. For some reason best known to Telstra and other phone company shareholders, they have decreed that mobile phones are much more expensive to operate than any other phone service with the exception of a satellite phone.

Satellite phone call charges I can understand as being out of this world but for the life of me, I can' t come to any other conclusion than the profit factor when it comes to mobile phones. Frankly, my motto is now "use it only when I'm about to lose it" in other words only in extreme emergency.

I see so many young people getting themselves financially thrashed by phone companies because of these excessive charges attached to mobile phones. Even the cost of texting in the quantities that many youngsters text today gets expensive.

Mobile phone contact lists are good and essential for storing names and phone numbers but if they are to use them they cost "big-time". So many people today keep all their contacts in their mobile phone but what happens when they lose their phone? And it happens far too often for most people to realise just how many phones for example, get left behind in Taxi's. It's only if you have ever worked for a taxi company on a Saturday or Sunday morning that you get to hear the wail of despair.

Today you don't have to rely on keeping all your friend's contact details in a mobile phone that could easily get stolen or lost. Or worse still, every time you wanted to make contact with someone it was going to cost you a heap of money. Now you can store all their personal details on a Minglestick which is attached to your key chain or key ring and login to one or more of their social book marking sites or just send them an email. Phones don't usually allow for all this information to be exchanged or made available so readily so next time you want to really stay in touch securely with someone special do it with a Minglestick.

Minglesticks are a Unique Corporate Christmas Gift

Once again it's the time of year when Personal Assistants are asked to start thinking about ordering those unique corporate Christmas Gifts.

As in past years the Personal Assistant (PA) will turn to the Internet and probably a couple dozen Catalogs sent from past suppliers in the hope that one or more of their products will be chosen again this year.

But if the PA is the sort of person who is usually employed to assist the Boss, she will be looking for something special to suggest. She'll probably be looking for something that will put them both in a good light with the client, and possibly their own Marketing Director and or shareholders too. In these stressful and uncertain economic times it is wise to err on the side of prudence.

So how does a PA find such a unique present that not everyone has yet, will be extremely useful to the client or customer, will remind them frequently of where they got the present from, and is most likely to be the best promotional tool available for the Company for the coming year. So where can a forward thinking PA find such a unique corporate Christmas gift?

Well, as strange as it sounds all she has to do is mingle to hear about the Minglestick.

A Minglestick is the technological replacement of the business card. A Minglestick gives more than just a person's name, address and phone number or as little as a person wants another person to have access to.

Minglesticks can be carried on a lanyard, key chain or key ring so you never leave home or the office again without your Minglestick business card replacement. Point and click is all it takes to plug and play even when you're away. Now with your company logo emblazoned discreetly for all to see when people swap contact details can you think of any better exposure for such a small price?

So if you are looking for a really unique corporate Christmas gift for special clients what better way do you have than to remind them every time they collect someone else's contact details that you are 'the company' that they do business with?
