Devir gives a lecture on YouTube to his class, which turns out to only be one physical person, but in reality – with the incredibly power that YouTube can give anyone – will hopefully reach thousands more.

“…all these points are just ideas, suggestions, tips. By no means are they a definitive recipe for success. You’re putting yourself out there for the public to view, and in the end, they are the ones who decide if your make it or not. Follow these pointers though, and when you are seen by the world, they may well come back for ‘seconds’.”

Ask Devir Questions on FormSpring

If your keyboard and mouse is on top of your desk, where do you do your writing/school work? [As asked on FormSpring]

// June 20th, 2010 // No Comments » // Community, Education, General, How To, Life, School

Valid point…

I believe I have answered this one before, but essentially, I still have plenty of room. For one, I have an empty keyboard tray under my right-hand desk. Two, I can easily put my laptop on a shelf under that same desk and then I have a totally empty (just about) desk to use for writing – and mind you, that is what I sometimes do. I can also just push my laptop backwards on that same desk to make tons more room for writing.

But I think more so than all of that, is the fact that most of my work is done on my computers. Most of it is all typing, or writing, and so on. I would say about %90 of my school work can be done on my computer.

That answer your question? :)
