I would tell a 5 year old that, in reality the reviews must be written by customers who have used the services of the company and would be willing to share their honest experiences so that it helps other fellow customers in making a decision that is in the best interest. So often times, the reviews are not that reliable as some business owners…[Read more]

Sunnylake Hospitals’ recently introduced EMR system has many weaknesses as it didn’t have the latest and robust security system. The entire hospital came to a shutdown due to the hackers. The breach occurred as there was some overconfidence by the IT personnel and lack of oversight. They did not act right away when they were first contacted by the…[Read more]

I think if I were to rent a room/house to a stranger, as a host I would certainly want to know who they are, why they are here in our town, where they are heading to, their destination/origination, how long they are planning to stay, what is their background, any references I could call/check, any criminal records, or their past stays via Airbnb.…[Read more]

Airbnb should do a thorough background check by a third party agency about the potential guest and a host as it is essential to prove their reliability, credit worthiness and this information should be made available to both prior to the acceptance of the transaction. Having some sort of insurance policy in place to protect the hosts and legal…[Read more]

Similarly with Uber, I may try these guys if I am stranded someplace in NYC or any bigger cities where they provide services but cautiously!

I haven’t used either Airbnb or Uber before. I just learnt about these two companies during our case studies while pursuing MBA. I did go to their websites today and found interesting things and meaningful uses of each. In the Airbnb website, surprisingly I found few hosts in and around my town and in Boston. Prices were surprisingly affordable. B…[Read more]

In terms of gaming, I loved angry birds, or need for speed or asphalt racing etc… but when it…[Read more]

Nice thread!
I am not that into texting though dont even have a texting plan on our phones. But I have always loved to meet face to face, email or speak over the phone or even a video TC. But one of my uncle from India recently introduced how great this app is, to my surprise it was and is. One of the reasons that dragged me into this app was its…[Read more]

Saqib, I am sure you are having a good time with it. I have read online that Amazon is experimenting to deliver packages using the drone. Imagine that. Pretty soon I guess we will have mail packages delivered through drones at your doorsteps. The possibilities are…[Read more]

Kevin,
For some reason I have always refrained from facebook and twitter. I am sure there are many many postive things about these. Gone are the days, when people either used to write an actual letter using a paper and a pen, and mail it to their recepient. Imagine a world where if you needed to send a message to your loved ones, It took days to…[Read more]

Paul Nice Post.
I havent used the app “find my iphone” before, never even knew there was one either. But after reading this post I learnt that there is such an app that you can track your phone, lock it remotely, display a custom message, play a sound at full vol, remotely erase all content and settings, is a bit scary but interesting. Concern…[Read more]
