Cool Tools: Business Card Composer 5

The name of this little software program might sound cheesy, but it does exactly what it says, and a lot better than you might expect. It helps you create professional business cards really quickly and easily. And it has been around for a few years/versions, so the UI is mature, stable, and elegant. And EASY.

Getting Writing Done With SimpleNote On The iPad

Most users of the iPad would agree that although the device is stylish and portable, it lacks hardware features and functions (namely a Finder) that keep it from being a total laptop replacement. For example, if you want to do heavy duty writing on the iPad, similar to the article I’m writing now, the iPad lacks essential features and software needed for productive writing.

The default writing tool of the iPad is its Notebook. It’s a basic text tool useful for what it is named for. But one of the features most of us writers need is a way to export our documents from the iPad to another computer and word processor. With the iPad’s Notebook you can only export documents via email. A better and faster way is to wirelessly sync your writing between your iPad and an online account, which can then be accessed from any computer.

The free ad-supported iPad app, SimpleNote (iTunes Store link), works well for automatically syncing straight forward text documents between your iPad and your online account. SimpleNote has no tools for formatting text, embedding images, or saving documents in different formats. But wireless syncing capabilities are required in my view for writing production on the iPad, especially since the device lacks a traditional Finder for saving documents beyond apps or even to a USB drive.

For extended writing, Apple offers an iPad version of its desktop application, Pages, which is similar to Microsoft Word. However, Pages comes with a $10 price tag.  Although it includes lots of advance features not found in SimpleNote, I believe Page’s wireless syncing feature also comes at a price, for you have to upgrade to the Pages ‘09 in order to wirelessly sync documents between the iPad Pages app and Apple’s iWork.com site. Your SimpleNote account, on the other hand, is totally free.

SimpleNote works as a word processor on and offline, and it saves your writing automatically. Once connected, SimpleNote immediately syncs to your online account. You can also type in both portrait and landscape positions.

Another big plus for using SimpleNote is that it actually works with the mobile version of Textexpander (iTunes Store link), the commercial automatic text expansion application. When downloaded on the iPad (or iPhone/iPod touch), Textexpander actually seems to work in the background when you’re typing in SimpleNote – just as you would when using the desktop version of the app. The ability to use Textexpander with SimpleNote is yet another reason, from a productivity perspective, that SimpleNote is in many ways a better option than Apple‘s Pages.

Also, the online syncing feature of SimpleNote means that your documents will sync to your iPhone or iPod touch. While you might not want to do heavy duty typing on the iPhone, you will be able to read your documents and perform simple edits which will get synced back to your online account.

You can get a premium SimpleNote account for $8.50 per year that includes disabling ads, frequent automatic backup and the ability to set up an RSS feed for your documents. However, the free basic features are sufficient for your regular writing needs.

If you’re an iPad user, let us know which word processing tools you use, and the features you would like to see added to the iPad for getting writing done on the device.

What Are Your Job Search Tools? - Secrets of the Job Hunt Career Podcast

"If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail." - Abraham Maslow

So what tools are you using for your job search? I ask this question all of the time and I'm constantly amazed at how many people leverage so few of the tools available to them. Now this is not to be confused with my Job Search Marketing Toolkit (which we can revisit some other time), the tools I'm talking about are your lists of recruiters, job search sites, company career sites, friends and family. So, if you're not using a full range of tools, now's the time to get a bigger toolbox.

Recruiters - Where to find them:

• Online Recruiters Directory - This is a really neat site, offered by Online Recruiters Directory. There are a number of approaches you can take. Click Job Seeker from the tab at the top of the page, this will take you directly to the recruiters search box. Three steps - select your category (industry), job type (temp, perm, etc.) and state. Click "search recruiters" and you have your list with all of the contact information you need. You can also click the links on the right hand side of the page under "I am a Job Seeker".

• Find a Recruiter - From findarecruiter.com, provides another search engine for you. You can select from the featured recruiters on the left-center side of the page or the search box from the right hand side. Simply select you field of interest followed by the region and then click "go find a recruiter". This will return a list of recruiters. Click on any recruiter for the contact information.

Job Search Sites - One of many lists:

• The 20 Best Job Search Web Sites - A small list, but a good start. There is an overview, followed by a list of job search sites. Follow through with these and you will have an excellent start on your list of job search sites. Don't forget to set-up search agents (with automated emails if you want), this will save time when you revisit the sites. If you set-up the search agents correctly, this may help minimizing how often you need to return to the website. One more word of advice, update your resume on a periodic basis so that you appear as a "new" user - this will attract more attention to you (otherwise you appear as "stale").

• Large Job Banks & Recruiting Sites - A very large list from The Riley Guide, start working your way through the list and you will expand your coverage. Don't use every site (who has the time), focus on the largest sites which appear to cover your industry and functional role. Each listing has a brief overview (read this first). Add one of these a day and you will be amazed at the number of leads you get over an extended period.

Company Career Sites - More Lists, more Tools:

• Company Career Sites - What better place to start than my list of company career sites. Click on any of the companies and you will be led to their career site. Once there, search first for where they are located and what types of jobs they have. Once you narrow down the list, start your search. On each site, register, upload your resume and cover letter and fill in any forms which may help in identifying you as a prime candidate.

• Job Listing Sites - All of the credit goes to Berkeley University of California for putting up this post. This is more like a variety center for various types of job resources (rather than a specific list). Top of the site has links by field (accounting, chemistry, etc.). This is followed by a list of searchable databases and then the individual resources by each of the functional categories.

Good luck in your search.

The 10 Top Free Apps For The iPad

In this article I’m going to cover some of the top free iPad apps. Most people say that the iPad is nothing more than a large iPod touch. And you know, they’re absolutely right. And that’s what makes the iPad better. With the large 9.5“ screen, apps optimized for the iPad look awesome. Many leading developers are taking very good advantage of the extra screen real estate of the iPad.

I’m also sure you have heard that you can download the iPhone and iPod touch apps you already own to your iPad tablet. But my humble recommendation is not to add all them of them to your iPad, only the free iPad apps that you really need to use.

Original apps made for the iPhone/iPod touch can be viewed in their original size on the iPad or they can be enlarged using the zoom-in button. But neither view takes quality advantage of the iPad screen. Zoomed in, the original apps become a little pixilated. In their original size, they look, of course, too small. It may not be a big deal for some iPad users, but for me, once you see the optimized apps for the iPad, you might think twice about adding non-optimized apps to your device.

Okay, so now let’s move on to some optimized free apps for the iPad that look really great.

Evernote

MUO has several articles on the free notebook application, Evernote. Not only can you get a free Evernote account, but the iPad app is also free. It take full advantage of the iPad screen real estate in which all your notebooks are displayed in icon form.

When you click on a notebook, you get a really nice icon view of your individual notes and documents in the selected notebook, with selected content displayed underneath. I could write an entire article about this app, but suffice to say, the design is just great.

Apple’s iBook

If you’re looking forward to reading e-books on the iPad, you will want to download of course Apple‘s iBooks application. I haven’t had a chance to read an entire book using the application, but based on reading a few pages from a sample book I downloaded from the iBooks store, the experience is pretty much like reading on the Kindle for the iPhone, but with a larger screen.

Apple has thrown some impressive eye-candy into its e-reader that resembles reading a paper book. Personally, I’m glad I put off buying the Kindle and waiting instead for the iPad. If you’re a dedicated Kindle customer, the Kindle for the iPad is equal to the iBook, for highlighting and bookmarking text and pages, though the iBook has search capabilities absent in the Kindle iPad app.

Fwix

Fwix is a news reader that downloads top news stories about your local area. Stories are taken from various sources, and its elegant, clean interface scanning headlines very easy. And unlike newspapers, there are no ads on the front “table of contents” page. When you click to read the full version of a story, you do get ads on the source pages.

NPR

The NPR app is another free app I‘ve written about for MUO. It’s a great news app that is even better on the iPad. It has small ads at the bottom of the screen, but they don’t distract from the clean design of the interface. You get top NPR news stories in both written and radio format. You can also create a playlist of stories that you want to save or read later.

Furthermore, you can listen to local NPR stations and save them as your favorites. The app will locate the nearest stations for you, or search by zip code.

Fluent News Reader

Okay, one more news app. This one downloads top news stories based on categories and topics you want it to search for. The sources include Wall Street Journal, Fox News, CNN, Time, USA Today, and others. You can also save stories for later reading.

Dragon Dictation

You will definitely want to download Dragon’s Dictation app to your iPad. It does the same thing as the iPhone version, but in the larger iPad version, you can save dictated notes as you do with Apple‘s free notebook. The only drawback is that you can’t see text as you dictate, so it takes a little getting used to.

Twitterific

I’m simply loving Twitterific for the iPad, even with its unobtrusive ads. The developers also take full advantage of the iPad’s screen real estate. In horizontal view, you get every feature of the app available to you in on a single screen. In vertical view, you simply click on your account name and a menu bar pops out to access Twitter features. The entire design deserves an Emmy.

TweetDeck

If you’re a Twitter power user, you’ll want to add TweetDeck for the iPad. Its interface works much better on the larger screen, and you also can sync searches between other devices you have TweetDeck installed on.

Netflix

If you have a Netflix account, you can now watch streaming selected movies and TV shows on your iPad with this free app. It’s part of your Netflix unlimited membership, and is not available for the iPhone.

ABC Player

I’m not much of a television watcher, but the ABC network app looks to be a great way to watch streaming ABC shows. This app is not made for the iPhone, but with the much higher screen resolution of the iPad, the shows look great.

Well, that’s my top ten selections of free apps, selected in the first 48 hours of the iPad’s release. I know there will be many other free apps that MUO readers could recommend, so please do so in the comments section.

9 More Simple Google Search Tricks

A few weeks ago, I wrote “10 Simple Google Search Tricks,” prompting countless readers to send in their favorite ways of finding info using the serach behemoth’s service. As I’m not one to let a good tip go to waste, I’ve compiled nine of the most useful ones here:

1. Use quote marks to search for exact phrases. Googling “simon mackie” only returns pages that contain my name, while searching without the quotes will return pages that contain “simon,” “mackie” and “simon mackie.” So quotes can help to really narrow down results.
2. Use the wildcard operator to fill in the blanks. Use the wildcard operator (*) as a placeholder for a word (or words) in your search query — combine it with quote marks and it becomes even more powerful. For example, try “A * on both your houses.” You can use more than one wildcard in your search query, too, although the more you use the harder you’ll make it for Google to return a good result. Note that the wildcard can only act as a placeholder for whole words, not parts of words.
3. Track a package. Enter a USPS, UPS or FedEx tracking code to find out where your package is.
4. Track a flight. Type in a flight number to get its arrival/departure status.
5. Get a stock quote. Type in a stock ticker symbol to get its price, together with a chart — for example, try GOOG. Some prices are delayed, some are real-time, depending on the exchange.
6. Get quick conversions of pretty much anything. Not only can Google do currency conversions, it can quickly convert other things, too, like imperial measurements into metric. For example, try 1 mile in kilometers, 1/2 cup in teaspoons (useful for cooking) or 1MB in KB.
7. Find out what movies are showing in your city. Search for “movies in” followed by your city (for example, movies in Bristol) to get a list of movies showing near you, with links to reviews and showtimes.
8. Use Google’s cache to retrieve the previous version of a page. If a page has been altered or deleted, or the site hosting the page goes down, you might still be able to get the previous version of the page from Google’s cache — just click on the “cached” link next to the search result.
9. Get the weather forecast. Type “weather” followed by your zip code to get the current weather and a forecast for the next few days. For example, try weather 94111.

What are your favorite Google search tricks?

Using A Macbook From An iPad With iTeleport

Since I saw the first real photos of the iPad and its gorgeous screen, I wondered how many developers would start developing VNC clients for it. I mean, back then it was pretty clear that the iPad’s screen was perfect to access your computer remotely, and it’s more than clear now that we’ve tested a bunch of applications to do so.

I’ve downloaded and tested many VNC clients for the iPhone and the iPad, and I think that many of them show good ideas and possibilities, but most of them fail in the most important aspect: providing a stress free and easy way to just show your computer’s screen on a mobile device, and interact with it. They overwhelm the user with tons of useless features but, fortunately, iTeleport is nothing like that.

iTeleport is now available as a universal app, so if you buy the iPhone app you’ll be able to install it as a native app on the iPad as well. I was a previous customer of the iPhone version, and I got the iPad update for free. Also, let me say this straight up: it’s not the cheapest app ever. It comes at $24.99 in the App Store, so think about it very well before clicking the buy button.

Chairless on Cool Hunting

It was just a question of time before someone came up with an iPad-ready chair, or we should say a "magical and revolutionary" chair. Vitra just introduced Chairless, a tool for sitting designed by Chilean architect Alejandro Aravena. A simple and witty idea, the textile strap joined into a loop measures 85 centimeters in length and five centimeter in width and wraps around the back and knees to stabilize the body and relieve tension while seated. Presented at Salone this week, the design incorporates an iPad perfectly, allowing the device to balance on the knees for comfort and ease.

Technology meets elegance in Chairless. Aravena was inspired by a similar sitting strap commonly used by the Ayoreo Indians. The nomadic tribe living in the Gran Chaco region (border region between Paraguay and Bolivia) has employed such textile straps as a sitting aid for centuries. As a sign of gratitude to the original inventors, a portion of the proceeds from Chairless will go to the non-profit Foundation for Paraguayan Indian Communities, which directly supports the Ayoreo Indians.

While the first run of Chairless has already sold out, you can sign up for email alerts for when Vitra releases it again in June at the online store. The website also invites users to submit photos of the product in situ and become members of the Chairless community.

Know Yourself!

In networking, job interviews, and in your career… self awareness is critical to success.

When people don’t really know their strengths and weaknesses, they often can’t answer questions well, sell themselves effectively, or emphasize their key qualities.

In order to help someone help you when job networking, you must know what you are looking for and be able to articulate it well. When you are interviewing for a position, you must be able to show with credibility what you know and what you do well, to be considered for the role.

Taking the time to really examine and discover your strengths, talents, and abilities will give you greater confidence and go a long way to helping you land your next position. Most people never do an honest self-appraisal and assume things about themselves that may, or may not, be true.

So, how do you do that effectively?

It should probably be done in a variety of ways…

Self Assessment – Take time to thoroughly review your career. Ask yourself introspective questions, and write out your honest answers.

What have been your wins, and what have been your set backs? What jobs have you liked the most? What tasks have you enjoyed the most? What gave you the most satisfaction? What came most easily to you? What jobs or tasks seemed most chore-like? What manager did you like to work for the most? Why? What manager got the most productivity out of you? Why? What was your greatest achievement? What caused that? What was your greatest set back? What caused that? If you were to do your career over, what would you change? What characteristics do you have the most confidence in? What characteristics have held you back?

Asking yourself these questions and more will force you to articulate the pluses and minuses of your career and your self-characteristics. Don’t assume you know what you think you know. Think through examples in your past that confirm those characteristics to you… or perhaps cause you to question them. The process may be very enlightening to you!

Reference Assessments – Find out what others really think of you. Often we don’t necessarily know how others see us and we might be surprised.

Compile a list of 4 or 5 questions to ask others you’ve worked with in the past. Questions of what they see as your strengths, weaknesses, biggest accomplishments and achievements. Send it out to 5 or 6 people that know you well enough in a work environment, and whom you have a good enough relationship that they will give you an honest answer.

Many times people are surprised to learn that previous colleagues think they have an exceptional skill or strength that they never thought they possessed. A task may come easily to you because you’ve done it so many times and you see anything special about it. Others may see it and marvel at how you do it so easily and so well while they struggle with it. Be sure to know those things about yourself… get the opinions of others.

Assessment Tests – Finally, take tests that can effectively determine some of your strengths and weaknesses as well. Getting an objective determination can add credibility to statements you make in your job interview.

One of the best, and most reasonably priced, resources I’ve seen for this in recent years is a book and test called: StrengthsFinder 2.0: A New and Upgraded Edition of the Online Test from Gallup's Now, Discover Your Strengths

It’s proven to be incredibly accurate, and very insightful. It will most certainly help you understand yourself and your motivations better. It will help you figure out many of the “why’s” in your behaviors, your accomplishments, and your achievements. Take the test and fill in some of the gaps in your knowledge about yourself.

 

Examining yourself in these three different ways will give you a much better understanding of what to emphasize in your conversations with others, and what to minimize.

Take the time to know yourself better. It will pay dividends in many surprising ways!
