I know that a lot of people are talking about Siri as if is the best thing since sliced bread when it comes to technology. I can see why many people would think this is the case. I have been one of the early adopters of voice recognition, and has been using the Dragon NaturallySpeaking program for a couple of years now. I generally find that it provided me with a lot of productivity because I do a lot of blogging and other things that frankly benefit from me not having to type …

How do you want to create your publication?

You could start your design from scratch, determining all the margin and column settings, type styles, ruling lines, text and image placement, and so on. Or you could use a prepared desktop-publishing template that poses the design question in a simpler, fill-in-the-blanks format.

A template is a ready-to-use publication file, with spaces for you to insert text and graphics into a prelab layout. Most page-layout programs today come with a variety of templates, and additional template files are available in several program formats, both commercially and as shareware.…

When you take the home-office deduction, are you waving a red flag in the eyes of Internal Revenue Service examiners? And if you are, what does that mean?

For years, tax sages have warned that claiming a home office increases your chances of being audited, and the IRS has tacitly gone along with those stories (maybe even exaggerating them, some suggest, to scare home-office workers out of taking the deduction).

In truth, there’s good reason to believe that the home-office deduction flag is fading, as auditors target more fertile ground looking for hidden tax dollars. Self-employment income in excess of $100,000 can still get you a place on the IRS hit list, for example.

But, as the number of legitimate home-based businesses grows, and according to The Official MBA Guide, the IRS’s chances of finding fraud wherever it looks have slimmed. Recent rules and new forms have eliminated a lot of the gray areas that surrounded home-office claims at the same time that many more taxpayers have joined the ranks of home-office workers. If auditing home offices ever was like fishing in a barrel, the barrel has been washed away by the work-at-home tsunami. The IRS could waste a lot of energy and resources auditing the more than 20 million home-based businesses and find a lot of careful record keeping, a lot of legitimately deductible home offices, and not a lot of money owed the U.S. Treasury.

There’s no law against bad office design, but after a talk with Philadelphia-based graphic designer Allan Wright, you can’t help but think it’s a crime. After a recent visit to a client’s very corporate, very bland headquarters, he had this to say: “We found people stuck in little booths with no natural light. Everything was horrible.”

His colleague Michele Armstrong agreed: “I felt like crying when I left the place.”

Some may accuse Wright and Armstrong of holding non-artist types to lofty standards; after all, why does an accounting firm, for example, have to be pretty? How …

I do have to say that since I bought the new iPhone I have been very impressed with the battery life in general. For a long period of time I had been using an android handset because I thought that it was probably one of the better ones on the market. I have to admit I was a little bit afraid of joining the cult of Apple, which makes a lot of sense because there are a lot of weird old people in it. But, after I got over the fact that …

Americans don’t like lawyers. Unfortunately, we need them. This is especially true if you own your own business, thanks to complicated laws, government red tape, technology issues and the proliferation of lawsuits.

Why don’t Americans like lawyers? (1) Lawyers are expensive. Depending on your locale, you may pay anywhere from $125 to $250 per hour for an attorney’s services. (2) Lawyers make people uncomfortable, sitting in their high-backed office chairs, behind huge mahogany desks and beneath a dozen framed diplomas. (3) A few lawyers are incompetent, unethical, or both, and thus many people are afraid of being …

Across the country, millions of home-business owners are forced to lead undercover lives. They are justifiably fearful that if they operate in the open and inform their neighbors or local authorities of their business, they could run up against local zoning laws that prohibit such enterprises.

This was aptly demonstrated during a recent Home-Based Business Expo, at Elgin Community College, near Chicago. About 60 entrepreneurs chose to list only their phone numbers–not addresses–in the Expo’s directory. “Some of them are doing business in ‘no home business’ zoning districts,” said Hilma Nelson, a work-at-home graphic designer who lives …
