• Timeraiser & Technology – Nicole’s Insight from Week 1

  Date: 2010.10.14 | Category: Capacity Building | Response: 1

  Tech Savvy is the way to be.

  Today marks my 5th full day at Framework, and thinking back to my first day when I was invited in for a casual lunch and overview of the organization, I had no idea what I Brand viagra was getting myself into! Viagra for women

  I thought that because I had a strong grasp of the common computer applications, you know, the usual suspects: Excel, Word, Publisher, PowerPoint etc., that’s all I would need — wrong! Pastillas levitra I was quickly awakened to the powerful world that is cloud-computing technology. Online levitra Viagra sale Kaufen viagra Viagra alternatives

  In my quest to learn how Framework/Timeraiser operates on a daily basis, my team has been extremely patient when explaining how to utilize all of these interconnected programs. Cheap viagra online I should also add, I was impressed to see how they took this knowledge for granted (in the most positive way possible), as these programs are such an integral part of their org Levitra pill anization. Prospecto levitra Kauf von viagra Now that I’m a few days in, I can certainly understand and appreciate why they have implemented Salesforce.com , Box.net, and applications like SmartSheet into their daily lives. Purchase viagra online Levitra contraindicaciones Over the counter viagra Levitra achat Furthermore, the more I use them, the more user friendly they become. For instance, we can set up a SmartSheet that is accessible to project managers from different organizations, giving them permission to edit, comment, and approve aspects of the project (all using a single shared document). This alleviates the daunting task of sifting through emails and attachments to ensure that every element of the project has been addressed, thus providing clarity, conciseness and efficiency. Levitra pas cher Viagra levitra Tech savvy is time savvy.

  When reflecting back to organizations that I’ve been involved with in the past, it’s clear that taking the time to be up-to-date in the world of computer technology will pay off not only for the interim but the future. Viagra bestellung Levitra prix pharmacie

  I look forward to learning more from Timeraiser and their technological ways!

  This morning United Way Toronto announced its 2010 Campaign target of $113 million dollars. I’ve been involved with United Way Toronto for several years now, contributing both my time and money plus ‘allocating’ some of my organizations’ resources to assist the work of United Way member agency work (visit www.timeraiser.ca).
