93 percent of communication is non-verbal

2011-10-24T06:00:00.000+08:00

I have just read that in communication, words account for only seven percent; the tone of voice makes for 38 percent and the rest is body language. Thus, 93 percent of communication is non-verbal.

How to read ebooks on your China phone

2011-08-31T04:41:00.005+08:00

Like me, you probably find it disturbing that most China phones have "ebooks" listed in their menus and yet no one knows how to use it. The only reason why the functionality is not being used is because no one really tells you how to.
