When you have a full time job so you love, you probably would not dream to do something else. But for others, it may not work that gives meaning to life and fulfill every aspect of your life, but a hobby. Well, how can so you can gain the confidence and experience to develop this hobby into a successful business?

There are five ways to slowly turn a hobby that is undertaken on a part time business into a full-time:

1. Offer your work for free, or as a sample given by the discount. Whether it’s you sell accessories, design your own clothes, food, or any service, practice your skills, and test your ability to sell to friends. Invite them to your home to try typical dishes that you know well, or bring examples of the accessories you bundle yourself into the office. Then, try to get feedback from them so you can repair itself and produce better work.

2. Stolen knowledge from experts. Lots of entrepreneurial seminars or workshops organized by the company or specific products. Attend these seminars, because you will not just get the theory, but also the experience of those who had fallen-up time to develop its business. You can also start your step by applying for a part-timer in the company’s business owners, so you can learn a lot from there.

3. Build networking. Once you realize that the hobby you have the opportunity to grow and has a promising future, use a site like LinkedIn.com or other social networks to gather prospective colleagues, prospects, or your customers. Ask the people who affect to be part of your network. The larger your community, the greater your potential for being successful.

4. Advertise. After perfecting your hobby, and now you’re ready to step into the next stage, create a simple website that describes your business, complete with a good company name, logo designed with unique, and spread the news about the launch of a product or service through Twitter, Facebook , YouTube (if it has something to do), other social networks, and of course e-mail.

5. Give your full attention. Growing business, certainly demands greater attention from you. So if your business is already generating a profit, and you believe you can make a living from this venture, consider to resign from your office job. Announce that this business has now become your new full-time job. Good luck.

Berners Lee a bit ironic to compare this to the lack of water and lack of access to the web. “You can live without the Web. It is impossible to live without water. But if you already have water, then the difference between someone who is connected to the Web, and therefore the information society, and someone who is not is getting bigger “

Among the goals of Berners Lee is making the Web even more useful for scientific information exchange, setting aside more frivolous uses, such as sharing theories of conspiracies that do not exist. Berners Lee says the Web has grown so that there are so many Web pages as neurons in a brain, and we must seize it, because unlike the brain, the Web can apply engineering and improvement.

For the father of the Web, there are many aspects that it is worth reflecting, including the power providers have access to the Internet on the habits of its users, net neutrality, and the growth of apps mobile phones.

A fun aspect of Berners Lee’s speech is that he deliberately avoids using the word Internet whenever possible, and always replaced by Web creation, although sometimes, as in the case of mobile apps, is playing songs most to do with the Internet than the Web. But no matter, it’s still an honor to read her thoughts and all the work being done by the so-called Web 3.0 or Semantic Web, something we will talk another day from this rostrum.

So you can be certain, Berners Lee, that whenever we speak of the Web, we are also hablandodeti.

Today was one of those days full of pleasant surprises that somehow I would like to share with you. I was invited to make a speaker in two sessions of the event “Connection Day 2011″ held by Venezuela Without Boundaries Foundation and Microsoft. The idea was to provide NGOs with tools to improve their behavior.

For those who want to get an idea of the brilliant things they said the exhibitors, ask them to conduct a search for hashtag # diadeconexion on twitter , and take advantage of what the attendees wanted to highlight as “the most important.”

In the first part of the event dedicated to “Entrepreneurship and Sustainability”, the rapporteur was my friend Luis Indriago ( @ lindriago ), addressed issues if you want attached to the script that was expected: the concept of sustainability and / or sustainability, philanthropy, etc. , I prefer to look through the tweets ..

However, in the second phase, dealing with “Entrepreneurship and Technology” I was pleasantly surprised to see how much you paid attention to technology as a tool, such as communication tool. Yes, you read that right, to the communication. Gonzalo Ibarra, a consultant based in Chile, spent the whole time of its presentation to teach these techniques and tricks to optimize network communication, from simple tips to improve search engine results, until the resources used to enhance readability text or more attractive to capture the reader’s attention, not to remember the basic rule to develop ideas, with subject, verb and predicate.

And in many countries for some time that the IT-Information Technology-ICT are referred to as “Information Technologies and Communication, a broader term, and from my point of view, more correct.

If at the right time as PROJECTION companies are more than necessary in these other cases are essential. NATO, or rather its spokespersons should know, at this point that the lack of a clear information policy is to give assets to your enemy, and in the case of a company in crisis is the fuel that instead of extinguishing a fire as fans. And if we speak of the great moments of the media company will require what the day to day. The basic tool for reporting the news conference. This is an instrument devalued by overuse and bad approaches. Summon journalists to a hotel to give them information that could have been communicated by phone or filtered in a dossier, eventually brings bad consequences. Variants as the working breakfast, lunch or presentation must be managed carefully. It is preferable, with the experience once again in tow, consider personalized strategies. A leaked to news media or journalist only, the opinion article written by a client, the medium itself (an example of the newsletter we do for the public company BEAZ SA) and best of all, the event particular, are usually more direct paths to success: our customer comes (and goes well) in the media.

In this regard again. At this time, and attention to Internet enthusiasts, we organized a competition to design web pages for a client. The peculiarity of this event is that all communication has focused on the Net This has resulted in traditional media, in the wake of what was published in newspapers on “buy” the news. Ie we have a new way to reach the same site. In any event, more than good ideas to sell and achieve spectacular results in many cases, there is a priceless asset. With strength and with money you can also get space in newspapers, radio and television, but resort to this remedy is bread today, hunger for tomorrow. Media companies that rely on the use of “remembering” to the media-million dollar advertising campaigns designed to achieve a better deal information are unfortunately commonplace. Other weapons are also used subtle pressure to have a lot to do with political patronage or business. Our work, with which we are more comfortable and gives us excellent results is that of honesty. The journalist who has a good career, when you try to sell a story to another fellow journalist, should know that this path will affect the credibility it receives. Furthermore, the news that it provides consistent and credible so that later will sometimes have a predisposition to accept them. And at this time after the ellipsis that we considered unavoidable to talk about what’s in the title of this conference. The new proposals for work in the field of business communication. Needless to say that in front of the race to modernity, with several positions ahead of the immediate pursuers is the design and maintenance of web pages.
