The other day, Web Watch was walking through an office when we – literally – stumbled upon an unusual sight: on the floor in the middle of the hallway was a crumbled pair of women’s underwear.
Hallway panties, as it were.
Nobody was around that location at the time, although this was the middle of the morning and the office was thriving in other parts of the building. And yet there that underwear lay, waiting for its owner to come back.

It’s time once again to take a look at HOW MUCH MONEY MUSICIANS MAKE each year.
Web Watch knows what you’re thinking — with iTunes, the Amazon Music Store, Google Play and other services, let alone the money that comes in from Youtube from display advertising showing with all their posted music videos — that successful artists would almost literally be rolling in dough.
But that’s not the case, as Web Watch has told you before regarding HOW MUSIC ROYALTIES WORK.

Are you watching the current BRAVO TV program LOLWORK?
It’s a reality TV program that allegedly shows the real-world behind-the-scenes workings of how the Cheezburger Network — home toLOL CATSand millions of other funny animal pictures and videos — does business.
While most the show appears to be purposefully driven to make what is supposed to be good TV, there are specific business-aspects that get aired that really for-real give a reasonable peek behind the curtain of what it takes to run a popular content-driven website.
Watching LOLWORK will give you a good reminder that it’s always hard work to create good, compelling CONTENT for your website, but that it’s that same content that also brings eyeballs to your site in the first place. Focus on the content, let everything else fall into place later.

With natural disasters and other causes leading to disruptions of the nation’s power grid, more and more homeowners are looking at alternative ways to power their homes when the electricity goes out.
Some people that Web Watch knows have decided to install gas or diesel-powered generators at their homes, or otherwise have a large backup battery available to keep the lights and computer network going for more than a day or two. Web Watch does support having alternative backup power available in some circumstances, but does wonder whether rushing into such a purchase is a prudent choice, rather than making a calculated decision as to whether you NEED to have such emergency power available to your household or not.

Are you like most people?
You get out of bed, slip on your running outfit (with nighttime reflectors, of course), and head out for an early-morning 5 mile run to shake out the cobwebs before you head home to shower and get ready for work?
If so, then you’re doing it wrong.

Men – are you more comfortable or less comfortable working for a female boss?
Women, same question to you: do you prefer working for a male boss or a female boss?
Maybe it doesn’t really matter whether the person you’re working for is a man or a woman — but if your boss is a woman, you may want to hold off asking for that raise if your boss is pregnant.

Web Watch knows that to succeed at work, it’s not always who you know – but rather who knows you.
In other words, you may not know the Big Boss in your organization… but you can certainly get ahead if the Big Boss knows who you are. They’re the ones who will look out for you in the long run, especially if you’re known as someone who can get things done for them.

Bosses: are you looking for what type of corporate holiday gifts you should be handing out to your employees at the end of the year?
It can be tough to choose – many organizations have extremely strict limits on how much of monetary value an individual can receive as a gift. Web Watch knows of one company that gave each employee a $50 gift card last year… along with the appropriate paperwork so the proper taxable amount was reported to the IRS.
Yup, it was the classic “here’s a gift, and don’t forget to pay taxes on it” scam that’s all the rage these days.
