About

HappyConnected
HappyConnected is a lifestyle and productivity blog that focuses on phone/desktop/web apps, gadgets, and products; and how they can  improve our lives.  These devices need to be connected (to the internet, to the corresponding data, and to some kind of power).  That’s the literal definition. Then, there is the other facets of the word connection that I wil be exploring here.  In brief,  I see these tools and their operations can  turn inspirations into actions into life satisfactions.

I update the blog during the weekend early mornings when my significant other is in bed.  I enjoy writing in the mornings or in pockets of time, say waiting in line.

Me

I am VERY PASSIONATE about my job but have decided that it tends to consume me wholeheartedly.  I love it because I find purpose, it’s never the same, and I love the people I work for and with.  Just like anything, balance is key.  In order to maintain that healthy balance, I’ve recently realized that I should consistently take the time during the weekends to pursue other things that I love, writing (say a blog like this one),  exploring (via books, reading other people’s blogs on line, traveling).  I have an uncanny fascination with tools and gadgets. I am always doing product demonstrations for family and friends.

I am also a wonderlust.  I believe in bibliotherapy, in various forms, from “university on wheels” to curing my insomnia problems.

Generally, I have this belief that with a catalyst, such as finding a right tool, understanding a key information,  life can take a turn for the better.  I used to forward clippings of information to my friends whom I think can benefit.  I also badger my family and friends of new tools or ideas I find, thinking that these ideas can change their lives, as they have  to mine.

I recently learned that blogging provides me a forum to disseminate this information to others who have similar interests or needs.
