Use Google Places for Easy Local Search

November 8, 2010

There’s little that riles me up more than when I feel I’ve made a bad purchase, bought into advertising that doesn’t live up to the hype, or was taken advantage of in a business transaction whether it’s with a store, while online, or with a service. My family and I have really tried to become [...]

Alltop…ALL Your TOP Websites and Blogs In One Spot…Genius!

September 17, 2010

I have an incredibly symbiotic relationship with my husband. He researches and finds really cool tech gadgets…then I get to exploit them and share them with you! One of his many finds is Alltop.

That’s all I knew and I was very reluctant (stubborn rather, as my husband would argue) in trying [...]

My Top 5 Google Search Bar Tools to Get Simplifized!

April 4, 2010

As a Professional Organizer I strive to simplify (or as I call it, “simplifize”) your life, whether at home or at work. I have lots of “tools in my toolkit” in order to do that. But one tool that all of us are familiar with is Google. Unless you’ve been living in a cave for [...]

Go From Files, Files, Files! To Smiles, Smiles, Smiles!

March 22, 2010

You know, I have a beautiful home office. A custom-made one with maple cabinets, glass doors, and a granite countertop. Unfortunately it isn’t well-designed for files. So for the past year and a half we’ve been living with a ridiculous amount of accordion folders that, although they fit inside the cabinets, were just too cumbersome [...]
