I'm about a week into telecommuting for a new job (Dallas Community Manager for Bizzy.com) telecommuters/anyone have any pointers for me? I've heard coffee shops are great places to work from. We use GoToMeeting, Yammer & conference calls a lot.

It took me only 15 minutes to engineer a Man-in-the-Middle attack, intercepting all the packets someone was exchanging over a public Wi-Fi hotspot, as a demo to a business owner who previously didn't see anything wrong with sending confidential or proprietary information over a public Wi-Fi network.

Preparing for those tough questions that employers ask in interviews is important. But it's just as crucial to know what questions to ASK in an interview. What are the best, worst, or most interesting questions you've asked a potential employer?

I also like asking them what they expect from me 6 months down the line and a year down the line, It gives me an opportunity to know whether I will be thrown into the lions den or whether I will have time to acclimate into the position.

Holiday seasons were the funniest: Everyone would mail cards to each other with their LJ names in parentheses in case you weren't sure who that first and last name on the address label belonged to.

I have spent years abroad and after college decided to take a backpacking trip around the world. What I realized is that Thailand is one of 'my favorite' countries in the world. I wrote a guest blog post about the timeless allure of the Thai smile and why Thailand still endures as the "Land of Smiles". Check it out and let me know what you think! http://maiden-voyage-travel.com/guest-post-a-call-to-smiles/
Julia Cantor:
Those pictures are beautiful and what a fabulous experience! I hope to see Thai smiles in person some day! :)

Would you use Twitter if it was a paid service? If your answer is yes then you're definitely in the minority. A recent survey on 2K people found that zero percent would use Twtter if they had to pay for it. I'm not surprised, are you?

I have recently been advised (by someone I greatly respect) to add a special section to my resume that is related directly to my social/digital media experience and then put the rest of my experience at the bottom. Has anyone else been advised this way and/or do you happen to have a link to a site that would have examples? My current resume seems to be in much more of a standard format. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. I have another question. I've been invited to a write book reviews for a website. I'm not sure how much to charge. I've never done this professionally before, although I have edited tons of short articles and short stories before professionally. How much do reviewers charge? if anyone has any clue, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Normally, book reviews are not great paying gigs (at least from what I understand-I haven't done them) but you generally get to keep the free books! I think what I would do is, if the books are something you'd read anyway, figure out how long it will take you after you've read it to write the review itself. Then figure out what you'd like to make hourly. Multiply the two. Consider the free book the payment for the time you spent reading the book and only charge them for the time it takes to write the review.
