Haven’t exactly posted much the past couple of days cos I was busy marketing the new Communication Skills Ebook that I launched and ironing out some stuff in the system. And I’ve signed up for a Twitter account for myself too =P
Yeah.. joining the bandwagon on the next wave of social networking genius. Haha.. Twitter is kinda cool. It’s what they call micro blogging, so you get to post short little messages which cannot exceed 140 characters. It’s like sending a short SMS to all your contacts. The difference of course is that Twitter has a global base.
And it’s a great tool for marketing yourself, your products, or your business. Take for example, when I post something new on my communication blog, I do a Tweet (yes, that’s what they call those Twitter messages) and all those who follow me will learn about it. It works like an RSS feed for my blog. However, I can potentially get more followers at a faster rate using Twitter than RSS. Cool ya?
After a bit of a delay due to some technical problems, I can finally release my Ebook! For those of you who are aware, I’ve always been very interested in Communication Skills and Techniques. With this new book, I’ve compiled what I share in trainings into a 100 page one-stop tool for all your communication secrets!
Learn about how simple and effective it is to implement techniques from NLP and Enneagram Profiling into your everyday communication. With these strategies, anyone can crack the communication code! To find out more about what this book can offer, simple click on the picture below =)
Diversity is the winner of Britain’s Got Talent 2009! Personally thought that it was a brilliant performance from them, though i’ve seen some parts of their performance on other Youtube videos before.
For the record, Susan Boyle finished 2nd, and Saxophone performer Julian Smith finished 3rd. The rest of the finalists (in no particular order) are:
Stavros Flatley (Greek dance/ entertainers)
Two Grand (Grandfather and granddaughter singers)
Flawless (Dance group)
Shaheen Jafargholi (Singer)
Hollie Steel (Singer)
Shaun Smith (Singer)
Aidan Davis (Dancer)
The Britain’s Got Talent Semi Finals is now underway. Yesterday was the 3rd Semi Final, and it’ll continue to run daily (except today because of the European Champions League Final) until the 5th Semi Final. After that, the 10 finalists made up of 2 winners from each semi will compete in the final and the prize of $100,000 GBP and the opportunity to perform in front of the royal family.
Till now, there’s been no really major upsets. The more impressive performers from the auditions have all made it through to the finals, except for last night’s winner. Amazingly, Stavros Flatley qualified for the final as the outright winner of the 3rd Semi Final (By the way, public votes will determine the winner who qualifies immediately. One of the second and third place performers will then be picked by the judges to qualify for the final).
Having said that, though i was surprised that Stavros Flatley won their Semi Final, i actually felt that their act was pretty amusing and brings out the best of kinship (Maybe that’s why they won).
Here’s the video of their act: (Apologies for the slightly poor quality. All the good ones on Youtube had embedding disabled. So to watch more videos of Britain’s Got Talent acts, simply visit Youtube)
And for those of you who are interested, the other finalists so far are:
Semi Final 1 – Susan Boyle (Winner), Diversity (Judges’ choice)
Semi Final 2 – Flawless (Winner), Shaun Smith (Judges’ choice)
