Google's Tip Jar

Google has launched a new service called Tip Jar.  The basic idea is for people to post their best tips on a variety of topics, and then visitors vote on the quality of the tip.  The subject areas include At Home, At Work, Finance, Kids & Family, Shopping, Food, Cars & Transit, and Travel.  Below are a couple tips I found.  The site is worth checking out, if even just for a minute.  Here is the URL:  http://moderator.appspot.com/#16/e=3cfc

 

"When composing reports or essays, turn OFF spell check.  Seeing that you've misspelled a word onscreen curbs the creative fluidity process.  When you're done with the first draft, turn it back on." 

--Smart Bombshell, Phoenix, AZ 

 

"If you have a security system at home, call your insurance company and let it know.  Many will give you a discount on your homeowner's insurance and may even refund part of your last premium."
