Computer Based Training (CBT) teaches even leadership

A pure CBT in operation would involve essentially a human being trained by a computer. Of course it has its pros and cons, as does a traditional training environment. Within the scope of computer courses, someone undergoing a computer training would particularly benefit. Where such a person is learning to use a particular software, CBT training is probably the best option since they are using the software directly.

However, nowadays the scope of CBT can also include any subject imaginable. Leadership training included! In this kind of training, advantages of CBT over traditional instructional methods shine through. A quick learner can customise the pace of learning to his own preference, while on the other side of the coin, slower learners can take their time and still not slow down the whole class.

pro360.com: online casino reviewer

For those into playing in a casino online, pro360.com is a welcome tool to your arsenal: it tells you which online casinos out there are the best. That means you don’t have to sift through all 3,000 or so of them yourself.

The review points include factors like game experience, trust score and bonuses offered.

Each game offered is also reviewed, including online poker, craps, slots and roulette. Review points for each game include features, bonus structures and graphics.

Currently there are 4 pages of reviews, each page holding 20 reviews.

There’s a signup bonus on each review page, and pro360.com’s signup bonuses are for the most part, bigger than what the online casinos offer if you signup with them directly.

I checked just now, and the current top online casino, with an Editor Rating of 100 and Player Rating of 95 is Fortune Room. Clicking on the Full Review button reveals in excellent detail the reasons why. There’s a good overview of the casino, followed by several screenshots, so that you’d have a feel of the interface without actually going to the site yourself. Then there’s a quick, no-nonsense section entitled “Reasons to Play,” telling you the plus points of the site. More details are presented, if you are seriously into objective evidence, in out-of-100 score format, in Game Exprience and Trust Scores.

All in all, a worthy online casino review site to bookmark.

CRM: AIMpromote gives SAP a run for its money

When one talks about Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software, perhaps the first one that comes to mind is the software offered by German company SAP AG, the largest European, and the world’s third largest software company.

But is it the absolute best for your company? Or is it overkill, because you only need certain features which can be done perfectly by software offered by smaller companies?

In its website, AIMPromote compares itself to 2 other CRM software, one of them being apparently the 4th biggest CRM company in the world, in terms of global revenue (source: Gartner Study). The software in question is produced by Salesforce.com, at USD281 million. In comparison, SAP is well ahead of the field at USD1.4 billion.

From the comparison, it’s interesting to note that AIMPromote includes features like lead reselling and unlimited custom fields which are completely absent from Salesforce.com, while some features like campaign performance report, ROI report and gross profit report that are already standard in AIMPromote’s package are optional in Salesforce.com’s. In fact, Salesforce.com’s offering is completely devoid of website integration and internet marketing feature, where in this day and age, you’d expect to be standard fare.

Personally I think the web analytics feature would be very useful for my site, because it can track the effectiveness of my internet marketing campaigns at amazing depth and precision. It can display tracking data for every visitor who fills out the feedback form on my site; thus enabling me to know from where the conversions came, what search terms they used, which pages they viewed, what path they took to reach the pages. This has the advantage of gleaning information about the lead that gets me better prepared before making that sales call.

No wonder AIMpromote is claiming that it is superior to traditional CRM software.

In addition to its obvious lower cost of implementation and total cost of ownership (just compare AIMpromote’s zero setup fee and Salesforce.com’s USD6,000+), they even go so far as offering to integrate your system with your website for nothing. The only cost they advertised is the USD33 per user charge (minimum 3 users). That is already cheaper than Salesforce.com’s USD65 per user.

They claim to be easy of learn, and hence use. Since they also have a 14-day free trial, this would be a good opportunity to try it and find out yourself.

trustsource.org attempts to reveal the best products in quack-prone fields

What is the best quit-smoking product? How about the best anti-hairloss product? The best personal loan provider?

These are some of the things in which it is very difficult to determine who’s the real winner.

Too-good-to-be-true claims abound, with seemingly genuine, heartfelt testimonials.

Is there any hope for the man on the street? The multitude of choices make it even more confusing for the average consumer.

trustsource.org offers a solution, where people who have actually used the products you’re thinking of purchasing give their reviews.

For hair loss products for instance, a new days brings one or ten new products on the market, each proclaiming they are the greatest product ever invented by humankind since the wheel. Trust Source, together with its readers, will evaluate and compare the claims each product makes, then they are ranked accourding to their benefits and overall value. At the moment, provillus occupies the top spot, with a rating of 94%, far outstripping the 2nd placed product (75%).

Similarly for cash advance or payday loans, you can see a list of the best user-recommended providers. This should give you a good head start to decide on which is the best and quickest way to get secure online cash in your time of need. Trustsource.org even claims that “in many cases there are no documents to fax.” Once approved, they’d deposit the moolah straight into your bank account.

Of course this is not foolproof, appointed cybertroopers might be lurking to ramp up their products of choice, however this should be able to supplement your usual methods of sorting out the gem from the trash: you can always consult another guide or ask trusted sources for their opinion.
