Gates isn’t just focused on specific diseases and educational deficits. To him, that’s thinking small. Like the high school password stealer he once was, the cocky Harvard kid, Gates wants to rewrite the rules of the whole system. He’s all for capitalism — it has treated him well — but he gets that it’s not going to take care of everybody. The financial incentives to take care of the disadvantaged just aren’t there. So capitalism itself needs to be re-engineered. In his Harvard speech he introduces an idea he calls creative capitalism.

Solution is a Web 2.0 directory. The following two are pretty good:

• Web2.0list – typical directory with explanations
• Go2Web20 – offers a catalog like view

Be forewarned, browsing through these could be a big time consumer.

• Top 25 websites in US
• Top industry search terms

Interesting if you are curious, and useful if you advertise online.

• Learn to remember names. A name is very important to someone. If you don’t take the time to learn someone’s name, it indicates that you’re not interested in him or her. When someone remembers your name, it gives you the feeling that you are interesting or important.
• Be easy going and natural. When you are stiff, reserved or unresponsive, you unconsciously build up a barrier. But when you are easy going and natural it is easy for people to like you.
• Be interesting. Have something to talk about that people find interesting or stimulating. This way people want to be with you.
• Don’t have a big ego. If you give the impression that you know it all, that you are superior, you make it hard for people to like you. Be normally humble.
• Do some self-study and get rid of negative attitudes. People can consciously or unconsciously pick those up and they might find it irritable to be around you.
• Always look for the positive qualities in a person. Getting people to like you is merely the other side of liking them.
• Try to build up someone’s ego. Make compliments. Congratulate upon someone’s achievement, or express sympathy when they are in sorrow or if they feel disappointed. The ego is a sacred thing; every human being has the desire to feel important. When you deflate someone’s ego, you are wounding him deep inside.
• Give strength to people, support them. Help them to be stronger and they will give you affection.

Whether you like to admit it or not, we want people to like us. If someone tells you that he does not really care if people like him or not, he simply is not being honest. The longing to be liked is one of our deepest desires. We want to be popular, we want people to speak nothing but good of us and we want to have affection of the people around us. It is in our human nature.
