For a fun, ongoing scavenger hunt that people can do all day, have an ABC scavenger hunt. If you work in an office this works well because you do not have to go outside the office to do it. Everyone simply finds things that start with the letters A through Z. For example, a person might find an apple, a box, a copy machine, and so on until a person reaches something that begins with Z.
Staff Information
Create a list of information about your employees like who has been there the longest, who is the youngest, and who was recently in the local newspaper. This helps everyone get to know each other a little better and highlights positive things about each person. Do this type of scavenger hunt at the beginning of the year or after a group of people have been hired to help coworkers learn about each other.
Out and About
If you work somewhere that is in a neighborhood or a city, take a few hours and let people go in teams and find things on a scavenger hunt list. They must take pictures with each thing. Some examples are a dog, bus stop bench, thrift shop, and a fast food place. This is a fun way to break up the day and let people get to know each other a bit better.
Riddles
Create riddles and split the group into teams so they can work together trying to figure out what each riddle means. Have each riddle lead to another one until all of the clues are solved. Have a prize at the end like a free lunch for the winning team, or a lunch for everyone, but dessert for the winners.

How to Do A Free Reverse Phone Number LookupIn Feburary 2016 30,
In Feburary 2016 30,
Simply do a search on the internet using the phrase free reverse phone directory. The one problem with a free reverse phone number search is that they're not always free, but you can easily find a free reverse phone directory for landline numbers and avoid paying a fee. But if the number is a cell phone number then many of those incur a small fee to access informationn about the person and it can also be more difficult to get information using cell phone numbers since these are still very private. Reverse phone lookups for landlines are much easier but you might not always be able to get all the information you need for free. If you want to get more private contact information for someone, in some cases you may have to pay a fee. If it's a cell number, you should still search online for a free reverse cell phone look up and see what you can find.
Find a free reverse phone number look up service and use it to stop telemarketing calls. It's much easier to do a free reverse phone number search for a business or landline because toll free numbers tend to work better. If you're getting pestering calls from someone, just do a free reverse phone look up and contact the telemarketing owner directly to make a complaint and demand an end to the calls. Another easy and free way to do your own free reverse phone number look up is to simply use the search engines yourself.You'd be surprised at the results you can get. Go on Google and enter the number in quotes to get an exact match. Everybody uses social networks like Facebook. People can add their phone number to their profile page on these sites and if they did, it will probably appear in the search results. You should try that before looking into a free reverse phone directoy.
Decide if a free reverse phone number look up is going to give you the results you're looking for and if it makes more sense to pay a small fee to get what you need. As I mentioned above, a free reverse phone number search is likely to only provide you with part of the information you're looking for. To get additional information these services usually charge a fee. If you will be in need of a reverse phone number lookup frequently then search online for companies that will only charge a one-time fee for unlimited searches. This would be best for a landlord who will be frequently screening tenants or for other situations where it would be useful.

How to Make a Hog Roast InvitationIn Feburary 2016 27,
In Feburary 2016 27,
Determine the size and style of invitation you prefer. You can choose to use the full 8 1/2-by-11-inch page, a half page or the full page folded in half to make a card. Making two invitations per page is more economical and environmentally friendly, particularly for larger parties.
Design your invitations, considering how much information you need to provide on the invitation, and whether you wish to include pictures or embellishments. Consider using a red and white checked paper that resembles a gingham picnic blanket, and pig-shaped rubber stamps or cutouts. Lay out the items on your card to see how they look before permanently placing them. This way, you can rearrange as necessary.
Determine the wording. You may choose simple phrases such as: 'You Are Invited to a Hog Roast' or 'Join Us For a Hog Roast.' You may also choose a more snappy phrase such as: 'Let's Pig Out!'
Use a ruler and pencil to lightly place a guideline on your invitation to indicate where your lettering and designs will go.
Apply your lettering using the guidelines you have drawn, and erase any visible pencil lines when you're finished.
Apply your pictures and other embellishments. If accessories are not pre-glued, use a gluestick or double-sided tape to apply.

How to Change Hosting Services Without Losing Email InformationIn Feburary 2016 27,
In Feburary 2016 27,
Start a new account with the web hosting service of your choice, but do not close your account with your current host. Otherwise, you risk permanently losing your website and email information.
Make a note of every email account hosted on your website. Write down each email address–and password if you want to keep them the same–or type them in a file and save the file. Keep this information private so that no one can access your email accounts without your permission.
Back up your website. Access the backup tool on your user panel with your current hosting service and select the options necessary to do a complete site backup, rather than any kind of partial backup. Save the resulting file on your computer.
Access the backup tool on your user panel with your new hosting service. Select the option to upload a complete site backup. Find your site backup, upload it and select the option to complete the backup upload process.
Create all the same email accounts you have on your current server on your new server. Use the passwords you saved in step 1 if you wish to keep them the same, or make up new passwords if you prefer. Be sure to use passwords that you will remember but that would be difficult for someone else to guess.
Close your account with your current hosting service.

How to host a UFC / MMA watching partyIn Feburary 2016 26,
In Feburary 2016 26,
Visit the official UFC website and learn when their upcoming events will be held. Select an upcoming fight that you want to center your party around.
Order the event through your cable company. The UFC website details whether the event will be shown on cable television or if it is a Pay-Per-View event. If it is a Pay-Per-View event call your cable company and order it. Prices of the events vary. Charges will appear on your next cable bill.
Create a UFC-themed invitation. Whether you are using email, an invite website or purchasing paper invitations, use sports or UFC themes in the language of the invitation. For example, 'In Celebration of UFC 133, it is time to par-ty!' Detail normal information needed on the invitation such as date, address, time and an RSVP phone number or email address.
Purchase food and beverages for the party. If ordering food for delivery, contact the restaurant ahead of time so they are not surprised by the order. Since the UFC is a sporting event, food often found at those venues is appropriate. Pizza, hot dogs, hamburgers, chips and various dips are all suggestions for your UFC party. Note, if you have UFC friends that are in training for their own MMA competitions or are health conscious, tailor the menu in that manner. Offer vegetables and light dips and lots of lean protein such as chicken, pork, beef and fish. Also purchase both alcoholic beverages such as beer and spirits and non-alcoholic beverages such as soda, juice and sports drinks for your guests.
Purchase UFC decorations for your party. UFC licenses a line of party items such as plates, napkins and cups. Additionally, purchase posters and other UFC-themed merchandise you can display during the party.
Prepare for the party. Before everyone arrives, make sure that there is ample seating around the television. Additionally, you might need to set-up food tables and beverage stations. Make sure to chill drinks in the fridge or in a cooler before your guests arrive. Finally, hang all the UFC decorations you purchased for the party.
Host the party. During the event, make sure that everyone has enough food and drink to enjoy while watching the event. Finally, make sure that everyone practices safe drinking while at your party. If anyone overindulges in alcohol, call them a cab, find someone else to drive them home or insist that they stay until they are sober.

How to Make Free Blank Tournament BracketsIn Feburary 2016 24,
In Feburary 2016 24,
Register your tournament if using a bracket maker. If making your own blank brackets you can download a free software for making tournament brackets or use templates from Microsoft Excel.
Enter your tournament information such as name, location played, dates of games, etc into your free blank brackets maker.
Now enter your bracket information such as team names, specific tournament locations, dates played, and seating numbers into the free blank brackets.

Now just enter your teams scores and advance them to the next brackets until you have one winner at the end. Some bracket maker software will do this for you or you can just print out your blank brackets and write in the scores and winners.

Bandwidth Usage in Google AnalyticsIn Feburary 2016 21,
In Feburary 2016 21,
Before using Google Analytics to estimate your bandwidth usage, keep in mind that Google normally doesn't see large non-HTML downloads like PDF or MP3 files. If you're serving a multimedia files, you need another statistics program that measures those downloads. The calculation is most accurate if your site serves consistently formatted HTML pages whose graphics are similar in number and size. Finally, you must have the Google Analytics code installed and working correctly on all of your pages for the entire period you want to measure.
Making the Calculation
To estimate your bandwidth usage, first estimate the average file size of your pages. Find file size information in most HTML editors, or by saving your page, including all graphics, to your hard drive and viewing the file sizes on your disk. Do this with a few different pages to get an average size. Then open Google Analytics and click the 'Pageviews' link. To retrieve data for a specific time period, click the date range and select the appropriate start and end dates. Multiply the number of page views by the average file size to determine the approximate bandwidth in kilobytes.
Google Analytics and Bandwidth
Google Analytics uses a JavaScript snippet to measure your site's statistics, which should be inserted into each of your Web pages. Google Analytics can only measure traffic for the pages with this code. Images, PDF files, videos, music and other downloadable file formats bypass Google Analytics unless you modify the HTML code on the clickable links for these downloads. There are two ways to do this: event tracking and virtual pageviews. For example, if you have a PDF download link on a page, you can add the '_trackEvent()' function to the link so that Google Analytics will count each time someone initiates a download.
Other Options
Use Google Analytics to make a reasonable estimate of your bandwidth usage, though the definitive source is your Web hosting provider. Most major hosts feature a dashboard with a running total of bandwidth usage. Use this total to determine whether you're within your monthly limits. If you believe there's a problem with your host's bandwidth figures, contact the support desk. Alternately, install a web statistics package that uses server data to track bandwidth usage.

Before using Google Analytics to estimate your bandwidth usage, keep in mind that Google normally doesn't see large non-HTML downloads like PDF or MP3 files. If you're serving a multimedia files, you need another statistics program that measures those downloads. The calculation is most accurate if your site serves consistently formatted HTML pages whose graphics are similar in number and size. Finally, you must have the Google Analytics code installed and working correctly on all of your pages for the entire period you want to measure.
Making the Calculation
To estimate your bandwidth usage, first estimate the average file size of your pages. Find file size information in most HTML editors, or by saving your page, including all graphics, to your hard drive and viewing the file sizes on your disk. Do this with a few different pages to get an average size. Then open Google Analytics and click the 'Pageviews' link. To retrieve data for a specific time period, click the date range and select the appropriate start and end dates. Multiply the number of page views by the average file size to determine the approximate bandwidth in kilobytes.
Google Analytics and Bandwidth
Google Analytics uses a JavaScript snippet to measure your site's statistics, which should be inserted into each of your Web pages. Google Analytics can only measure traffic for the pages with this code. Images, PDF files, videos, music and other downloadable file formats bypass Google Analytics unless you modify the HTML code on the clickable links for these downloads. There are two ways to do this: event tracking and virtual pageviews. For example, if you have a PDF download link on a page, you can add the '_trackEvent()' function to the link so that Google Analytics will count each time someone initiates a download.

How to See Who Viewed My Craigslist AdIn Feburary 2016 20,
In Feburary 2016 20,
Prepare the images you plan to use in your listing. You don’t need to do anything special with them; just edit them as you normally would.
Contact your Web hosting service and tell them you want to track unique views of a specific image file; they'll explain how you can do this. You may also be able to find the information in their site FAQ or customer support literature. Just look for their Web analytics support documentation.
Upload the image as advised by your Web host’s customer support. You only need to do this with one image. Tracking statistics on multiple images can cause you to accidentally multiply the number of visitors who view your listing. If you do use multiple images, store the others elsewhere on your Web pages or host them directly on Craigslist.
Link to the image when you post your Craigslist ad, using the HTML image tag: . Replace 'URL' with the actual URL of your image, including the 'http://" at the beginning and keeping the quotation marks.
Track the unique downloads for the image in your listing. This number roughly corresponds to the actual number of individual visitors.
