Some useful tools for World Cup Viewing

Isn't the vibe around the World Cup Soccer fantastic ? Even those of us that would not normally get too excited about soccer, are finding it very difficult to not get swept up in all the excitement, colour and  celebration.

We have found two excellent tools to help you keep track of the games and stay involved .

1. An excel Based calendar that helps you keep track of the points - Download this funky calendar , and keep it saved on your PC. As each game ends, enter the winning and losing scores of the respective teams, and the spreadsheet  works out the standing points as well as who plays next ... that way you can impress all the chaps at the office with your wealth of knowledge on the games !

You can download the excel sheet from here     ( just select save or open when prompted )

2. An online calendar that tells you who is playing , where and at what time - If you just want to stay informed on the times and dates of the games , click here to access a very clever online calendar, and bookmark it as a favourite on your browser .



SKYPE introduces some fantastic collaboration tools

How many times do you travel to meetings that take you 45 minutes to drive to, and 10 minutes to conduct ? Sound familiar ? The good news is that this type of time wastage is not necessary , as more and more Online collaboration tools become available, and SKYPE has just introduced some free ONLINE Sharing tools .

We all asscoiate SKYPE with free ( or low cost ) voice and video calls ,and now they have introduced a new cool online document sharing tool for Skype -- MeToShow. Designed to be used with an actual phone, or computer , MeToShow lets call participants show documents to each other instantly. No dodgy file transfer involved, no hassle of installing third-party add-ons. MeToShow allows you to meet, share and collaborate information with anyone around the world. What's more, it's tightly integrated with Skype.

MeToShow doesn't need to add a button to your Skype Extras which becomes a bit stuffy in time. Skype invitation is completed right inside MeToShow meeting rooms. Hold a phone call with 2 (up to 20 in Personal version) Skype contacts. Draw the mouse to MeToShow menu bar and click the Skype icon. As soon as your invitees click the link on the chat box, you can enjoy the smoothest live document sharing while talking on Skype, with all the participants being able to see what is on your screen, you can discuss, drawings, document clauses and anything that is displayed on your computer ( or phone ) screen .
