Be a Guru Manager

November 12th, 2009 0

I read a book «Be a guru manager» by Zivojin Petrovic. It have potential, I must say. There is useful stuff for someone who just started manage some business but there is for old, experienced managers, too. If nothing else, to remind them on some basic facts important for managers. For internet managers who run some internet business, big website, online store or anything similar, too. It’s not revolutionary book. For people who read managing books, blogs, forums, who take related seminars, it’s almost impossible for book to be that one. But I see important and useful to read any internet, managing, marketing related book I came across. Every book is written on different way and can give us different angle of view on same things. That’s vary important.

I will note here few parts I see very interesting and useful from Be A Guru Manager, Zivojin Petrovic’s book.

Products that didn’t exists

Innovate constantly. Offer new service. Add new product to your offer.

Key quality in funky business is forgetting

Forgetting is sometimes better than remembering. For instance, better forget some tricks you learned about SEO few years ago. Now, that trick can kill your website’s traffic. Or, HTML tables vs CSS. Forget tables, do CSS.

How to view psd file without Photoshop

September 16th, 2009 1

Maybe you are designer and you use Adobe Photoshop but you don’t have it installed on your laptop. Or you just have .psd file some freelancer made for you, but you don’t have Photoshop installed so you don’t know how to see what’s in the file? Maybe you just need to open it and look at file content, without layers and working process? In that case you can use free software – IrfanView. It’s free for personal use (you can donate if you are satisfied or attend to use it in commercial purposes) and it is small file (lower then 1.5 MB plus about 7 MB if you want plugins installed).

If you open .psd file in IrfanView, you will see whole file as one image. If you need you can save that image as jpg, gif, tif, bmp, png, ico, pdf or some of many offered extensions.
