Product testing is quality assurance in the context of research and development.  This measure is conducted to determine the acceptability, safety and efficacy of products.  It is imperative, but unfortunately, the most tedious and expensive part of the whole research and development process.  But then again, it is important.

Ent-rice-preneurship

I have this wild idea of putting up a central supply of cooked rice in every major food-courts in the metro.  Aside from the regular P12-per-cup-sized plain rice, here I could initially offer customers different varieties:

 PC users win by the number of users, but as Mac people [...]

Developing Creativity Part 2

Ok, so now we all know that creativity can be developed.  It is not that everyone is lucky to have a good DNA combination for you to be born with creativity, but at least, just like physical beauty, it can be developed.  Surely, nowadays, you see a lot of things impossible being made possible.
