I will never miss a sale again

September 24, 2009 by 6 Comments

Aside from being a blogger, I’m also an online seller at Multiply, in fact, I’m enjoying this sideline for 2 years now. I get to do things I love which is to shop and do crafts like beading. Earning from it is just an added bonus as well as gaining friends along the way. Maintaining an online shop is quite a task, I have to check everyday for inquiries, post blogs and ads about new products, update my clients for the status of their orders, checking if they have received the items in good condition, etc… Aside from the online inquiries, I also get inquiries and orders thru text messages even in the wee hours of the morning. That’s the beauty of online shopping, you can shop 24/7 at the convenience of your own home and with only just a few clicks.

So how can the buyers inform me with their orders? Well, it’s with the use of Online Order Forms that makes things easier. There are free HTML generators out there such as Wufoo.com or Freedback.com which I currently use that automatically sends an order form to my email address whenever a buyer submits one. The Order Forms I receive looks like the photo below:

This time, it’s Farmville

September 23, 2009 by 4 Comments

After receiving dozens of request to join other Facebook games, I’ve been loyal to Restaurant City for months. I got intrigued with Farm Town for a moment but I don’t find the graphics appealing. Since Farm Town, various farm-themed games sprouted, one of them is Farmville. I like Farmville’s interface more than Farm Town’s so I got comfortable playing with it. I think the Farm Ville game is best suited for younger users like kids and teens, this game can get pretty boring. I just started playing this as past time and whenever Restaurant City is down for maintenance. Just in case you’re interested what my hacienda in Farm Ville looks like….

See, some of it are still unplowed. I’ll catch up with this game these days. For now, I’m still hooked with RC, which reminds me I need to change my Restaurant City layout. See you in Facebook!

Want to surprise your friend when chatting? Use the hidden emoticons or hidden smileys of Yahoo messenger. These are not included in the default icons of Yahoo messenger, that’s why it’s hidden, ssshh! But you can always keep a copy of the keyboard shortcuts or bookmark this link so that you can wow your friend the next time you’re online. As simple as it may seem, typing in ” @};- ” (which yields a rose icon) to your special someone will surely send some smiles.

Restaurant City is now serving drinks

July 30, 2009 by 7 Comments

Here’s something new for Restaurant City addicts! Aside from the 3-course menu (starter, main and dessert) that one can serve in his/her restaurant, game developers are making the challenge a notch higher by adding drinks to serve. Of course, in a real restaurant setting, a restaurant is not complete without drinks! Just like the gourmet dishes, you also have to search for the ingredients for your drinks like ice, lemon, lime, etc… Another addition to the game is that the player can now serve 2 dishes from each category. Playing Restaurant City is looking like a San Diego private banquet dining with all those mouth-watering dishes and drinks to serve. You might be wondering if there will be changes in your Restaurant City layouts due to the addition of drinks and questions to the daily food quiz, below are some of the opinions I got from RC players.
