Comments for Thought Lateral http://thoughtlateral.com Looking at the world laterally, but that's beside the point ;-) Sat, 18 Jul 2009 01:34:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 Comment on #1 Sleep to dismount a vicious cycle by Sash http://thoughtlateral.com/2009/02/24/1-sleep-to-dismount-a-vicious-cycle/comment-page-1/#comment-97 Sash Sat, 18 Jul 2009 01:34:51 +0000 http://thoughtlateral.com/?p=47#comment-97 Typically, my mind is the freshest in the early morning, especially if I've had my seven hours of sleep. I like to do my work/homework around 4-6 a.m., so by six-thirty I'm ready to go, and wide-awake to face the day. Of course, this means going to bed at eight or nine, but I've realized that most of what I do before midnight is useless time-wasting anyway. The extra time to put on coffee, check email, think about the day's plan, slowly meet everyone as they wake, or just cram for a test, is very much worth the early turn-in hours. :) Typically, my mind is the freshest in the early morning, especially if I’ve had my seven hours of sleep.

]]> Comment on What do you get if you cross eBay with William Hill? Swoopo! by John http://thoughtlateral.com/2009/03/22/what-do-you-get-if-you-cross-ebay-with-william-hill-swoopo/comment-page-1/#comment-25 John Fri, 08 May 2009 19:00:19 +0000 http://thoughtlateral.com/?p=74#comment-25 I’ve used Swoopo in the past but there are so many using it now it is SO hard to win, bidding against people from other countries as well. I found another one that is launching soon called doobids. I’d be surprised if anyone knows about it because I have not seen them advertising anywhere yet. They are getting around Facebook as a fan page but they seem a bit different from the others though because they have put extra features on it making the whole process of bidding slightly more transparent, doesn’t look as much like a scam! Theres a security certificate as well which is really important for secure transactions. UK company registered and VAT registered. Might be worth a punt for those that care.
