什么是 Cyber Monday ?

leave a comment

这个周一收到好多国外网站得促销电子邮件, 邮件标题都是”Cyber Monday”开头得. 我就很好奇这也是个什么节日么? 于是研究了一番才得知其然.

下面摘一下相关内容, 原文来自 http://www.gobunnybuy.com

版主最近有機會到美麗溫暖的佛州走了一趟,轉機的時候,偌大的機場,看著人來人往的忙碌上班族,或是父母帶著小孩渡假的笑臉,突然想到,版上應該也有讀者朋友是在美國工作的上班族吧!也許你們已經知道甚麼叫做Cyber Monday,但是,不見得大家都知道。隨著黑色星期五步步逼近,也許應該向大家介紹一下甚麼叫做Cyber Monday。

其實Cyber Monday是最近幾年來,隨著網路購物日漸普及之後,逐漸流行起來的一個名詞。其中的Monday,指的是感恩節假期之後的第一個上班日,禮拜一。因為感恩節都是十一月的第四個禮拜四,很多上班族如果還有假期可以放,多半會選擇把禮拜五也請假,這樣就可以從禮拜四放到禮拜天,為期四天的長假了。至於Cyber,其實指的就是網路購物的意思。Cyber Monday,就是感恩節假期之後的第一個上班日的網購促銷活動。

那為什麼有這種活動?不是黑色星期五就已經夠hi了嘛?答案是,也不是。要看是哪一群消費族群。對很多有家有眷的上班族,感恩節假期,雖然有放假,不見得有時間跟學生一樣去店裡面搶東西。感恩節就像中國人的過年,是闔家團圓的時間,所以,不是要忙著煮飯,張羅吃一整天的感恩節火雞大餐,就是要與家人親戚朋友聊天打屁,看看Washington Chief與Dallas Cowboy的比賽。哪有時間去搶好deal呢。他們也知道黑色星期五的狂熱,但是也知道藍色星期五的憂鬱。沒時間去搶,去搶也不一定搶得到。

但是他們還是有shopping的熱血衝動阿。怎麼辦?於是,假期結束的禮拜一,往往就是這群具有比較高的消費力的上班族真正有時間好好的坐在電腦前面,專心購物,不是,專心上班,的第一個時段。累積了一個長週末的衝動與焦慮感,等於讓腦袋瓜處在最不清醒的血拼模式,殺紅了眼也不在乎的狀態,大買特買。而網路行銷的研究很快就發現,網購的很大比例成交金額都是發生在假期之後的第一個星期一白天。於是呢,廠商發現這個消費習慣的模式之後,開始針對這群購買力強的族群推出促銷活動,很多是從黑色星期五延續到隔週,有些甚至專門創造一個促銷活動,針對禮拜一的網購高潮。於是乎,開始有人用Cyber Monday來稱呼這個第二波的促銷活動。

可想而知,對公司老闆而言,Cyber Monday也是員工效率最差的一段時間。除了自己也投入戰局之外,大概就只能氣在心裡口難開吧。

所以,Cyber Monday其實也是感恩節購物促銷活動的延伸活動。下次看到這個名詞,可別搞不清楚狀況了。別說版主沒有教你們。

现在知道了吧. Cyber Monday 其实就是感恩节后周一得网络促销.

再次推荐: There is no if

one comment

之所以是”再次”是因为我忘了是不是之前已经推荐过了. Ok, 就当之前推荐过吧, 再推荐一次!

那是还在大学的时候, 混论坛很流行FTP, 所以我也在自己电脑上架了一个FTP. 我的FTP上开放了一个文件夹叫”upload”, 权限设置的是所有人都可以读写, 是用来让别人给我传东西的.

某天, 在这个upload目录里, 我看到了这首歌. 当然, 我不知道是谁传的, 是不是给我的我也不知道(因为总有人用这个FTP做文件中转). 既然在我这里了, 那我当然不能客气, 于是这就是我第一次听这首歌的缘故了, 比较偶然的说.

第一次听这歌就有一种震撼的感觉, 一种被击中的感觉, 倒不是说什么身有所感, 我那时还没谈恋爱呢….=_=” 但这歌让我听的竟然有一种心碎的感觉, 太奇妙了简直. 从此我记住了一句英文:”If you die, so do I”.

我把歌词放上吧, 就是一个故事:

Remember the first time I told you “I love you”
It was raining hard and you never heard
You sneezed
And I had to say it over
I said “I love you”, I said
You didn’t say a word
You just held your hands
To my shining eyes
And I watched as the rain ran through your fingers
Held your hands
To my shining eyes
And smiled as you kissed me

” If you die”, you said
“So do I”, you said
And it starts the day you make the sign
Tell me I’m forever yours
And you’re forever mine
Forever mine…

” If you die”, you said
“So do I”, you said
And it starts the day you cross that line
Swear I will always be yours
And you’ll be always be mine
You’ll always be mine
Always be mine…

Remember the last time I told you I love you
It was warm and safe in a perfect world
You yawned
And I had to say it over
I said “I love you”, I said
You didn’t say a word
Just held your hands
To your shining eyes
And I watched as the tears ran through your fingers
Held you hands
To your shining eyes
And cried

” If you die”, you said
“So do I”, you said
But it ends the day you see how it is 
There is no always, forever
Just this
Just this

” If you die”, you said
“So do I”, you said
But it ends the day you understand
There is no if 
Just end
There is no if 
Just end
There is no if

单车

leave a comment

话说文森特老湿一时兴起(也许是酝酿已久了), 从沈老湿家中取得一辆也许被遗忘许久的来历复杂的山地单车.

经过了一番折腾, 在文森特老湿花费了百十大洋后, 终于得以实现自己的愿望, 然后就骑行25km.

这番折腾+骑行的结果就是–不给力! 文森特老湿对此单车单方面表示了不满, 他的臀部也提出了严正的抗议. 随后, 老湿对Giant ATX系列单车进行了试驾以后, 决定放弃现在这台来历复杂的山地单车, 而我暂时决定接手这台可怜的单车.

现在在对文森特老湿进行放毒, 让Y买Trek!!!

该死的头发

4 comments

其实头发关系个人形象是很重要的一个因素. 但你需要相当的时间和耐心来呵护你的头发(怎么像洗发水广告?). 而当我一天天看着老婆为了自己的头发忙来忙去, 我就想放弃了……

如果不是因为那个重要的日子, 我真的是没耐心和我的头发斗争了~~~

基本决定完事儿了就去整个光头~~~

其实俺内心深处还是想长发呢……你说这人咋就这矛盾?

It’s too late to apologize

leave a comment

老婆看Gossip Girl的时候, 我听到一首不错的歌儿. 特意找来多听了几遍, 顺便share给大家.

Apologize – Timbaland

I’m holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I’m hearing what you say but I just can’t make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you’re sorry
Didn’t think I’d turn around, and say…

That it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I’d take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it’s nothing new – yeah yeah

I loved you with the fire red-
Now it’s turning blue, and you say…
"Sorry" like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I’m afraid…

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late whoa…..

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah-
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah-
I’m holding on your rope, got me ten feet off the ground…

创业自卫“二十二条”

leave a comment

金光灿灿“三十六条”,传说可以被忘记。

山西土里都是煤,你可千万莫惦记;

陕西地下流石油,和你又有啥关系?

造汽车,来沈阳?算你哥们儿有胆气!

山东钢铁映日红,全都并入正规军;

上海武汉搞航空,你在如来手心里;

开网吧,要注意,邻居万万别是陶然居,

嗨,陶然居。

快递别想发大财,那是咱邮政的好生意;

新能源别激动,要和央企捆一起;

三网合一别兴奋,第一个被融合的许是你;

做网站,要牢记,删帖快狠是纪律;

网游老板要数清,你婆婆到底在几个衙门里;

《新闻联播》必须看,重要讲话记心里;

CCTV要上贡,否则人民都恨你;

把你公司卖老外,搞掂商务部排第一;

要想安全活下去,千万别做大生意;

创业板在眼前,有人强要来入股,让你依来你就依,

嗨,你就依!

创业者要淡定,莫学Google耍脾气;

别拿自己当根葱,就当你是小商贩,见了城管要服气;

国家分钱不眼红,闷头干咱的小生意;

提高觉悟做准备,随时把公司献央企,

嗨,献央企!

以上二十一条的解释权归“有关部门”。

A new approach to China: an update[Z]

leave a comment

因为blogspot被墙, 为了让大家更方便看到, 我转帖了该文:

3/22/2010 12:03:00 PM

On January 12, we announced on this blog that Google and more than twenty other U.S. companies had been the victims of a sophisticated cyber attack originating from China, and that during our investigation into these attacks we had uncovered evidence to suggest that the Gmail accounts of dozens of human rights activists connected with China were being routinely accessed by third parties, most likely via phishing scams or malware placed on their computers. We also made clear that these attacks and the surveillance they uncovered—combined with attempts over the last year to further limit free speech on the web in China including the persistent blocking of websites such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google Docs and Blogger—had led us to conclude that we could no longer continue censoring our results on Google.cn.

So earlier today we stopped censoring our search services—Google Search, Google News, and Google Images—on Google.cn. Users visiting Google.cn are now being redirected to Google.com.hk, where we are offering uncensored search in simplified Chinese, specifically designed for users in mainland China and delivered via our servers in Hong Kong. Users in Hong Kong will continue to receive their existing uncensored, traditional Chinese service, also from Google.com.hk. Due to the increased load on our Hong Kong servers and the complicated nature of these changes, users may see some slowdown in service or find some products temporarily inaccessible as we switch everything over.

Figuring out how to make good on our promise to stop censoring search on Google.cn has been hard. We want as many people in the world as possible to have access to our services, including users in mainland China, yet the Chinese government has been crystal clear throughout our discussions that self-censorship is a non-negotiable legal requirement. We believe this new approach of providing uncensored search in simplified Chinese from Google.com.hk is a sensible solution to the challenges we’ve faced—it’s entirely legal and will meaningfully increase access to information for people in China. We very much hope that the Chinese government respects our decision, though we are well aware that it could at any time block access to our services. We will therefore be carefully monitoring access issues, and have created this new web page, which we will update regularly each day, so that everyone can see which Google services are available in China.

In terms of Google’s wider business operations, we intend to continue R&D work in China and also to maintain a sales presence there, though the size of the sales team will obviously be partially dependent on the ability of mainland Chinese users to access Google.com.hk. Finally, we would like to make clear that all these decisions have been driven and implemented by our executives in the United States, and that none of our employees in China can, or should, be held responsible for them. Despite all the uncertainty and difficulties they have faced since we made our announcement in January, they have continued to focus on serving our Chinese users and customers. We are immensely proud of them.
