World Of Warcraft Hits 11 Million Members →
Take a moment to understand that number please. We are talking about a game that charge you $15 a month to play, so it means 11 000 000 members x $15/month x 12 months = close to 2 billions dollar a year excluding the money they do on each game and extensions they sale!!!

Make Water Like Money
Today, I stayed at the Westin Hotel in Toronto all day before a client meeting tomorrow. Having a beginning of a cold, I drank 4 bottles of water. Like in many hotels, the coffee offered in your room is free, so I figured it was the same for the bottles of water placed just aside the coffee machine…

WatchSave Time De-corking Your Wine with the Slide Technique
I like Gary Vaynerchuck and his Wine Library TV podcasts, but following him everyday, it’s too much for me. I just can’t find the time, but it’s always interesting, specially this showoff technique on how to save time at de-corking your bottle of wine.
