The idea of a Kampus Metaverse is an exciting one. The concept of a university that shares learning resources with other universities is an exciting one and is something you should explore in the future. The power of the Internet allows us to share information and gain access to various sources of knowledge. We can all benefit from the same learning materials regardless of nationality. With meta universities, we can share and benefit from the best of the best.

The Meta University

The Meta University model is based on the notion that the whole is greater than the parts. It is similar to the concept of synergy: two firms combine their resources, and the value of the combined company is much higher than the sum of the individual firms. Similarly, when a university pools its resources and makes available its knowledge to the entire world, students can access the same information without having to go to multiple institutions.

Kampus Virtual

The concept of Kampus Virtual is gaining momentum globally and has been adopted by many universities in the United States. The idea was developed in Japan and is currently being implemented in several countries. The National Innovation Council, led by Sam Pitroda, has submitted a concept note to the Human Resource Development Ministry and Education Ministry to see if it will be possible to implement the concept. The government hopes to see the initiative take off in India in June 2012. The government has also approved a proposal to develop a national university system.

The concept behind meta universities has a history of success. The original idea behind a meta university was to let students design their curriculum and pursue their interests. The idea was to change the way higher education is taught. Instead of focusing on a single subject, … Read More...

We define success in different ways. Others find success in having a high position in their workplace, others in having a successful business, and some in having a beautiful marriage. Some people define success as buying and owning a home. You may think that investing time in your work or starting a business is the best investment you could ever make, but purchasing a home is another one. 

Here are some reasons why buying a home is a good investment.

Pride

Pride of ownership is one of the top reasons why buying a home is a good investment. This means you can call it your own. Owning a house also means you get to do whatever you want to do with it. You can decorate it to your liking, paint the walls with your favourite colour, get bespoke bedroom furniture, and more. Since it’s yours, you can do whatever you desire, and no one has the right to intervene. 

Security

Investing in a home also means giving yourself and your family’s future security and stability. The value of a home appreciates, which means your asset’s value increases as years go by. If you will compare a car to a house, a vehicle is continuously depreciating. If ever there will come a time that you need cash, you won’t be able to sell your car at the same price when you bought it. Unlike investing in a house, the more enhancements you make, the more it will increase in value. 

Expense

One major expense that is part of our monthly dues is rental. So, instead of paying rent, why not buy your own home and stay there as long as you want. Buying a home is ideal rather than paying for an apartment you will never possess. You can get … Read More...

Wellington is a great city that offers great food, sights, and one of the best living conditions in New Zealand.

But no matter how good the city is, some people may find the need to move for some personal or other reasons.

It could be harder when this is your first time to move into a different house.

Here are some of the tips on how you can get the best prices for furniture moving services.

Classified Ads

Just like the good old times, classified ads used to be the best way to find the services that you need. In this case, finding a moving company on these pages will require you to contact them one by one and ask for a quotation. Make sure to create a list of the large furniture and appliances (including their sizes if possible), so you don’t have to call them multiple times. Don’t be limited to what you can find on the paper, there are now classified ads that are also available online or in a form of a smartphone app.

Social Media

Coincidentally, you may find some furniture movers on social media with a friend that could have availed of the service before. If the company has provided an excellent service, chances are they could have provided a review on social media and posted something about it. You may also find the contact details of the moving company’s official social media account and contact them for a quotation. … Read More...

Your front door color says a lot about you. But you won’t notice this unless you pay attention to reviews and opinions of homeowners shared on third party review platforms such as ReviewsBird.com. Here, homeowners talk about many things and the symbolism of front door color is only one of them.

Everything has an attached meaning, especially colors. How you choose your color, the purpose behind it, and the art and style at which your front door is painted say a lot about you, the owner of the house. You might not be cognizant of this, but passersby are taking note.

For instance, the White House describes what to expect from the building. Named by President Theodore Roosevelt, the color white has so far served as a symbol of wealth and exoticness for the White House. The same thing is associated with front door colors. If you read reviews, some of the meanings we have identified below have been closely associated with certain front door colors. Knowing them comes in handy if you are looking at how and what to paint yours.

1. White color cleans and simplifies: Words related to the color white include cleanliness, simplicity, and orderliness. This has to do with the intrinsic features of the color white itself and how people put meaning to it. White is stainless, neat, and comforting. It is not a color of dirt or germs. So, a homeowner who has a front door painted in white would most likely be regarded as a clean person.
2. Red color opens its arms wide: Arms wide open mean welcome. This is what the color red depicts. An exciting and vibrant homeowner would find it more preferable to white. A person of adventure, too. Most front doors are painted in red and
