*This is why you are not employed*

– its easy to ignore your LinkedIn profile when you are not looking for a job though you might be accepting connection requests from friends and contacts, but everything else is overlooked or let me say that LinkedIn isn’t part of your worries for now but it has to be.



i can remember sometime ago when a big company in need of Tech freelance writers contacted me on facebook and requested for my LinkedIn profile saying that they have a job for me and the pay was reasonable.


sincerely speaking, i needed the money and i was sure i could deliver but my linked profile was a little messy and that was how i lost the opportunity to earn some cool dollars. it happens to a lot of people. you might think that its nothing but your linked profile tells your potential recruiters a lot about you.

you know that someone out there needs your services and they cant get to you if you don’t make yourself available. LinkedIn is the perfect place to showcase your skills and achievements to that amazing employer of your dreams….you know what i mean right?

we have carefully outlined and elaborated everything you need to know about making your lnkedin profile attractive and extreemely appealing. are you ready? lets do this

Every year, I take on a personal challenge to learn new things and grow outside my work at Facebook,” Zuckerberg wrote in facebook post last year. From picking up a new language to writing a thank you note every day for a year, each of Zuckerberg’s challenges has served a purpose bigger than himself.

After what Zuckerberg calls a “tumultuous” 2016, the Facebook founder has made it his 2017 resolution to visit and meet people in every state in the U.S. by the end of the year. It’s his goal to learn how people around the country are “living, working and thinking about the future.” Facebook has been a social vehicle that has connected the world and given many people a voice. However in some cases it has also created division. Zuckerberg wants to hear different opinions and voices, figure out how he can empower people and help create a better future.

Personal, social and business challenges inspire Zuckerberg’s yearly resolutions. The challenges never apply to just one area in his life, either — he makes sure that he will benefit from them in a number of ways. Studying Mandarin Chinese in 2010 helped him communicate for business, learn about a different culture and tackle his lifelong struggles with mastering a new language. When he created an AI system, “Jarvis,” to control his home in 2016, he found a way to apply his technical skills and today’s technology to make his life easier.

Check out some of Zuckerberg’s most legendary New Year’s resolutions and discover the larger lessons behind them.

Use technology to make your life easier.
Zuckerberg’s 2016 resolution theme was “invention,” which is why he challenged himself to create an AI system to run his home. By the end of December 2016, Zuckerberg had successfully built “Jarvis” — inspired by Iron Man — that can control appliances, plays music, recognize faces and even entertain his two-year-old daughter. By utilizing today’s technology — which doesn’t necessarily mean building a robot for your house — and challenging yourself to be more inventive, you can find ways to make your life easier and daily routines more efficient.

Educate yourself.
You don’t need to travel to become cultured. Instead, use the resources around you to educate yourself. In 2015, Zuckerberg challenged himself to read a new book every other week in order to learn about different cultures, beliefs, histories and technologies. “Books allow you to fully explore a topic and immerse yourself in a deeper way than most media today,” he wrote in a Facebook post.

Practice humility.
In a world where we email or chat a quick “thanks!” to......

Java: general purpose; used especially for Android (phones and tablets), websites created by corporations, and sometimes embedded systems (like the chip that runs your washing machine) or desktop software. According to many polls, it’s the most popular programming language.

C++: general purpose: rarely used for websites unless they are very high-volume and highly optimised; the language of choice for 3D games; very good at allowing you to efficiently manage memory and good for anything requiring smooth realtime execution. Also used a lot for desktop programs in general, for creating operating systems and anything where you have to interact with hardware at a “low level”.

C: C++ was built on C, so there is a lot of overlap between the two. It’s extremely fast and is the language of choice for writing.........

If you’re an IT professional that’s looking for one fo the best laptops for programming, or even if you’re an aspiring coder looking for the best Back to School 2018 deal, you’re on the right page. With this list, we’ve gathered together the best laptops for programming and coding.
If you’re looking for the best laptop for programming, you should keep in mind the features you’ll actually need while working. For example, the best laptops for programmers will feature the latest and best processors – you’ll need that extra juice to quickly and efficiently compile your code. Fortunately, most modern laptop processors feature plenty of threads and high clock speeds, which will make looking for the best laptop for programming as easy as saying ‘hello world’.

You’ll also need a good amount of RAM – at least 8GB. And, if you’re running complex code, you’ll need a lots of storage space too. If a laptop features one of the best SSDs, that’s even better – it’ll save you time when coding, and time is money.
Having a dedicated GPU isn’t extremely important for programming, unless you’re coding graphically intensive games that you then want to test out. Modern Intel processors come with integrated graphics capabilities that are powerful enough for pretty much all programming tasks.

Search engine optimization
Search engine optimization is the process of optimizing a website and making it rank high in search results.

Wikipedia defines it as the process of affecting the online visibility of a website or a web page in a web search engine‘s unpaid results—often referred to as “natural”, “organic“, or “earned” results. In general, the earlier (or higher ranked on the search results page), and more frequently a website appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine’s users; these visitors can then be converted into customers.
