Personalization done right :: Calculated value exchange

-
We have evolved so much in the ways we communicate with each other, from carrier pigeons to telegrams to telephones to instant messages thru internet. This trend is evolving at an ^ exponential level.

Personalization done right would eliminate the 'one-size-fits-all' business strategy and monetization models. That means there is - 🚫 Low value having an 8:00AM - 8:00PM store timings 🚫 Low value in having a 'primetime' for media/contents 🚫 Low value in supporting channel A, B and C in communication 🚫 Low value in defining free vs. freemium vs. subscriptions vs. transactional vs. hybrid models
🚫 No value defining long term roadmaps for solutions / products / services It would be a calculated value exchange at the right place through the right channel at the right time.

How to fix Invalid configuration for device '0' when cloning a virtual machine

In case you are stuck with this error, here is what I found. Problem - While trying to clone a virtual machine from a template or a VM (ESX 4.1), I get an "Invalid configuration for device '0' " error after the cloning was about 80% complete. Only items I changed for the VM (Edit Virtual Hardware option) were the MAC address for the NIC from Automatic to Manual and the ISO device type to "Client Device". Solution - What I did was to clone the virtual machine with the default settings and then make the required changes after it completes. Hope this helps someone!

Cisco Anytime Connect error "The VPN client agent has encountered an error"

Everything was working perfect until yesterday, my VPN client refused to connect to the server. I thought it was a temporary server issue until next day, I still couldn't connect. I uninstalled the client, made sure all flies got deleted, restarted my laptop (Dell Latitude E6400), re-installed the VPN client, and still no luck. I was getting the error as shown in the screenshot below. I checked my windows services (Start -> Run -> services.msc) and made sure that the Cisco Anytime Connect service is running with local system account Log On. I restarted the laptop and tried connecting again, No help. So, I raised a case with my company helpdesk. They changed the binding order of my laptop's network adapter so that the Ethernet connection (RJ-45) takes precedence over the wireless connection (See how to change the binding order ) . I went back home and tried connecting and it failed again. Weird.. what could be the problem? So again I took my laptop to the service

The theory behind successful Negotiations!

I was doing my Negotiations assignment while watching " Just Go With I t" with my wife on TV. Call it timing, I noticed a well executed negotiation between Bailee Madison and Adam Sandler. This is the second time I'm watching the movie ( twice!?!?, I know), but this time I could identify the "theory" behind the negotiation (thanks to my super awesome Professor Sarah Woodside - see her  profile here ). Searching for the clip on YouTube, I was NOT surprised to see the negotiation already been analyzed by someone else! Here's the clip and the analysis from YT.. haffun watching it.
