How To... Impress Your Boss
How To... Impress Your Boss
Like It Or Not, Your Boss Is One Of The Most Important And Influential People In Your Life
Why Is It Important?
Like it or not, your boss is one of the most important and influential people in your life. As well as holding the ability to make or break your career, they can dictate your mood, decide whether you're worthy of a pay rise or bonus, and generally impact on your overall happiness.
Impressing the boss is a much derided activity and will often be misconstrued as sycophancy by fellow workers. But this shouldn't deter you from doing your best for them. Remember, the relationship with your boss is a partnership - the better job they do at the company, the better you'll likely do, and vice versa.

Google Magnify Translator
Google Magnify Translator
Google Magnify is the latest concept to be created by Anh Nguyen. This concept began with a funnyemail that he had been going around the officeat his work. He went up to their intern, who just happened to be fromFrance, before realizing that he would have a tough time reading it.After a little bit of confusion, the intern just copy and pasted theentire email into Google Translate and was cracking up just like everyone else after reading it.
Thenthe idea started to percolate in his mind; what if there was a devicewhich was basically a window to the world, where everything would betranslated into the language of your choosing? A modern take on themagnifying glass, which hasn’t been updated much in its 800 years of existence. With a flip out handle, triple cameras,and text recognition software running through the Google Translateengine, the device just needs to be held in front of any text to betranslated on the spot.
