Google’s Nexus One vs. iPhone, Droid and Palm Pre
The below info is American-focused but you can get an idea of the benefits and pitfalls of each phone. Also, as I have always maintained, go for the phone which would suit your particular needs. Not everyone needs an iPhone despite it’s Cool status, which seems to be slowly dying out now. If you’re a business person, get a Blackberry. If you’re an all media, social, business, game and traveller junkie… stick with the iPhone… It’s all about utility, yo.

Useful Tips
Beauty
Use white rice to exfoliate your skin
Here’s a beauty secret from Asia. Put white rice in your coffee grinder until it is very fine. Moisten with water or use dry to exfoliate your face, legs, arms, feet, and hands. Just rub in circles and it leaves your skin so soft.
Family
Give privileges and responsibilities
Give privileges and responsibilities to your kids at the same time. Explain to them that new privileges come with new responsibilities. These two things should always be paired. Privilege without responsibility encourages feelings of entitlement and responsibility without privileges feels like persecution. Pairing the two from the very beginning should help prevent many behavior problems.
Employment & Work
Deal with excitable boss when you’ve made mistake
If you expect a confrontation with your boss over something that went wrong, mention it first. But be angry that it happened. Show your agitation. Your boss will be telling you, “It’s no big deal. Mistakes happen,” instead of chewing you out.
Keep office pens from being stolen
Do you work pens keep getting stolen from your desk? Tape a funny little “curse” to your favorite pen. For instance, “If you steal this pen may your hair turn green.” Silly, but effective. Try it and see.
Relationships & Love
Get people to like you instantly
It’s ingenious in its simplicity. All you have to do to get people to like you instantly is assume they will. This will cause you to act more friendly and warm toward them. Because you seem to like them, they will like you.
Education
Assemble points in sequence before writing
Whenever you are trying to write something like an essay or article first note down all the points which you would like to mention in the article. Arrange them in a logical sequence. Only then start writing sentences beginning with the first point and continuing till the last. Proofread and make necessary changes. Your article should now be ready.
