Earlier in the week, I posted about a funny list from Freelance Switch on the top ten signs you may be charging too little. Well, Jack from the Lighter Side section is back at it again with another funny list of the Top Ten Signs You May Be Charging Too MUCH.

Again, there’s always some truth in comedy. Here are a couple of my favorites…

Number 10:
To justify the price on your quotes, you’ve started writing extra words that usually mean the same thing… (eg. Creation of Concept, Concept Development, Concept Refinement, Tweaking to Concept, Amendments to Concept ….)

Number 2:
When you hear how much your lawyer charges per hour you think ‘peh, small fry!’.

…. And the number one sign you may be charging too much
You have reportedly charged *cough* $700,000 for this logo

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen the logo thing before. Organizations spend thousands and thousands of dollars for a logo that is just plain bad. Man, if only I could just get ONE of those!!

Apple brought it’s second Apple program to Windows today. The first was iTunes. Now, we have the Safari web browser for Windows. The initial release is in beta of course.

Some good things about the Safari for Windows is that Apple has promised a speedy, speedy version. Apple says that Safari performed an iBench HTML performance suite test twice as fast as IE 7, and also pretty comparable results from the Javascript test.

Visit Apple and download Safari for Windows.

I came across this post on Freelance Switch on the Top Ten Signs You May Be Charging Too Little.

Although it’s on the lighter side, there is always some truth in comedy. My favorite of course is the number one sign…

…. And the number one sign you may be charging too little. Companies have been calling from India wanting to outsource their work to you.

That’s too much.
