The art of finding the best seat on an airplane

If you travel on airplanes frequently, SeatGuru.com will be useful to you. You can see what aircraft each airline has, and which are the best seats in each aircraft. It also details what amenities each airline puts in a particular airplane (audio, inflight entertainment, meals, etc.). I'm glad I chose Air New Zealand for my honeymoon flight, as I can be sure I'll have my own TV screen. Not surprisingly, Singapore Airlines is on the cutting edge of flying pleasure, by offering things like wireless Internet inflight.

Confessions of a car salesman

While looking into buying and selling a car, I came across this revealing article about the life of a car salesman. Apparently this writer on edmunds.com was asked to go undercover and become a new and used car salesman for a few weeks to see what it was like. The results will definitely make you think differently about car salesmen, car dealership managers, and car dealership owners.
