14 Jun 09 How to Take Time Out to Write

Writing is indeed fun, and many among us have the skill required to write, but a handful only end up writing anything. If you ask the non-starter about it then they will supply you with different versions of the same answer: they did not get time. Do not think that every non-writer who had potential to write is lazy. This is, indeed, not the case. They just do not know how to take time out to write! Most of them are too busy doing works and earning living for them and their families to even think of picking a pen or stroking the keys. This article will tell you how to take time out from the busy life.

Record what you do and eliminate unnecessary things

In order to take time out from your daily schedule, you need to figure out how you spend your day. Start with recording everything that you do in your daily life. Once you have a complete list of things that you do in any day of the week, start striking out the thing you can do without. You will be amazed to see how much time you wasted in idle talks, and television watching. These things are important, but when done in excess, they can kill your productivity.

Cut on rests

One needs to work hard, if one wants to achieve something. You need to cut on sleeping, and lunchtime rests to take time out to write. You can use this time to write down the thoughts that come to you, or even use this time to develop your story.

Write while you travel

Well, this is not always possible to write when you are going from one place to another, but you can always use this time to write down the key points, which you can further develop at your leisure.

Talk to your family and ask for support

Take your family in confidence and speak your mind, tonight on the dinner table. Tell them what you are planning to do. Ask your partner, or parents to look after your kids at least once a week, so that you can have some free time to write. If you have grownup kids then ask them to do the house works once a week to help you in taking time out to write.

03 Apr 09 Is 3DTV Going To Replace Your High Def?

Now that HDTV has officially taken over, to the point that practically any income can find an affordable screen to meet their needs, I guess the industry is trying to push the next big thing.  Likely only to try and get you to buy something overpriced and impractical, like most new technology.  And now Samsung is no different, as the company plans to launch the first HDTV that’s also fully 3D.  By projecting two images, one from the left of the screen and another from the right, and with the use of special 3D goggles, Samsung’s new plasma offers a practically three dimensional experience.  Or at least it’s supposed to feel like one.

The only problem is initial reports have it that the ‘3D’ experience falls far short of anything that could possibly replicate true three dimensional filmmaking.

By now we’ve all seen at least one movie in the theater that features 3D, and usually it’s pretty cool, and most of the time you feel as though the images on the screen actually are three dimensional.  But the problem with Samsung’s plasma screen, is that they are using content that wasn’t meant to be seen 3D, opposed to a film that’s specifically shot for such a purpose.  Therefore most people describe the experience as being unintentionally nauseating.  And considering how long the world took to embrace HD, I don’t think jumping into the 3D realm right away is a good idea.

But then the 3D revolution is always being talked about with television and films, where every few years the reports start about new jumps in 3D technology that will make 3D TV in your home the standard, but I fail to see a time when that’s actually going to work the way companies like Samsung hype.

Maybe when the day comes where your television will actually project a 3D hologram?  Opposed to having to put on special 3D glasses just to watch TV.
