back from the dead..

Unlimited texting is not something that is new. When i was using my prepaid my number was (0917-90xxxxx), these were the first prepaid plans, Globe's services back then were not that "polished". They introduced unlimited texting before for P200 a month, so even if i had a prepaid sim, there's a bill that comes to the house every month, so it's prepaid but it's not. I guess that it was the reason why they took it out.

My theory is that they just adapted a "Prepaid service platform" so that time, they were'nt so familiar with that platform so they can't do much changes to it. Now that they're familiar with it, they were able to integrate prepaid sims with prepaid services.

I would'nt be surprised if some other services that vanished before will come back to life..

Training.

In school, we were always reminded that when creating programs, the target user should be able to understand it. We, as IT people most probably know how to go around with the programs that we made, but to other people, it may be hard and not "automatic". So training the users with your program will really help the company be more efficient.

From what i have noticed in my ojt, big companies really spend a lot on training, even if their people have high positions already, they are always put into training.

Change

I must admit that I hate change. Whenever a new technology comes out on the market, I would stick to the old setup that i have. I have heard this saying once on TV.. "Don't say you dont like something if you havent tried it yet."

Sometimes, i want to create websites. but i always think, how will it be successful? I thought that i should create something that people are used to, and not make them used to something that i created
