Simpleology principles
Sponsored Post
Everybody wants to work less as much as possible and at the same time earn as much as possible. Simpleology 101 online course will teach you how to do it.
How much? It’s free, they also offer some other cool free stuff.
So let’s see what they offer! By visiting their website you can sign up for their course. When I was signing up they asked if I want to be included in the newsletter, I usually don’t subscribe to every newsletter so I skipped that part.
After that you are greeted with “almost done” message and they show some quotes from some users. The page is long and while I am scrolling down to find a link to finish setting up my account I see that they are offering PDF ebooks. This offer is valid if I act NOW! I don’t buy ebooks, so I pass… Then at the very bottom I see Lock in my Decision button. You have choices to sign up for a free 30 days or if you don’t want you can skip the trial and pass by.
While setting up account, you can download and install some simpleology software tools. Also if you want to refer this to your friend you will be able to do it on 5th step to finish your account set up.
So I’m done setting up, I logged in. I see Daily Target list, Dream Catcher, Mental Lock box, Delegation list and Observation log. All of these are here for you to learn how to spend less time doing more.

Especially, I loved that it is clearly stated for which fonts you have to pay and which fonts you can just download for free. Now, let’s be honest, everybody likes freebies!
Paid fonts can be purchased for a $24 USD and gives you much more options then the free fonts.
Urban Fonts has a blog and a forum to help with the PR.

When developing applications for big companies who had some legacy systems/applications running, and you are required to do the Data Extraction from the legacy systems import to your application. This, sometimes, can be really hard, especially when there are missing data in some rows, or some data extractions are comma delimited, some tab and some with other format like XLS, XML etc. Here’s the definition from their website:
DataStreams is a component library for .Net developers to easily integrate data from various formats like CSV, Excel, and XML into their applications.
Csv Reader is an extremely fast and stable .Net class for stream based parsing of virtually any commonly found delimited data format, CSV files, tab delimited files, etc. It’s usable from C#, VB.Net, ASP.Net, or any other .Net language. It’s compatible with the 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0 .Net frameworks.
Relenta unique CRM
Sponsored Post
The first impression potential customer visiting your online presence is very important, as we can see Relenta is pretty much aware of this because it has very simple yet effective, sleek and user-friendly website design.
Relenta is a unique customer relationship management (CRM) tool for small business. The two key reasons for failed CRM projects are:
1. No email integration, meaning that the vital business information contained in email resides in a separate application.
2. The CRM software is so complicated and confusing that employees either avoid or are incapable of using it.
Relenta solves these and many other CRM problems by offering a simple and elegant Web 2.0 application that improves employee productivity and makes it easy and pleasurable to manage your team email, contacts, calendar, and email marketing in one central place.
Relenta CRM turns familiar software product categories upside down by integrating the functionality of team email, contact manager, online calendar, and email newsletter marketing software into one elegant Web 2.0 application.
As a simple, yet robust alternative to bloated software, Relenta CRM helps you get things done quickly and effectively. Our product development is focused on usability and overall user experience, rather than sheer number of obscure features and cluttered interfaces.
