Telecommunications infrastructure is important for any country, especially in this new information age. The quality of the infrastructure is just one part of the equation, the other part is accessibility to the infrastructure. It seems like Cuba is moving a little more to improved accessibility to telecom infrastructure.

As of today, ordinary Cubans can now own cellphones.They are able to sign up for prepaid contracts on cellphones. Granted they have to pay for them in convertible pesos and the phones will be out of reach for most Cubans, but it does signal a shift to greater telecom accessibility and this could be a very good thing for the Cuban economy.

I remember that after I got my first credit card while in university, I began looking to get my first new car. It meant a trip to the dealer to see what auto loans were available. There was no way that I had the cash to buy a new car and I didn’t mind making payments on my car, but I was still a bit green. I didn’t know how to get the best car loan possible. I sure I wish I would have thought to look into alternative sources for car loans.

Now, things have gotten a bit easier thanks to the internet. It’s possible to shop around for great auto loans. One such place to shop around is BestLeadingLenders.com. They can help you get a car loan with the best rates no matter what your credit is like. You can even get approval online for the car loan you need. It’s really simple.

Maybe it’s time to take a little break from finance, technology and real estate. My wife is from the Philippines so is naturally proud of everything Filipino. That means we have to watch American Idol as she texts like crazy to vote for Remielle, no matter how bad she sang her song.

It also means that since we saw the hosts on Good Morning America doing the Papaya Dance, we have to be gung ho for the Papaya Dance. The Papaya Dance is a dance started by a game host in the Philippines. Edu Manzano is actually the coolest TV host in the Philippines. I just love the way Edu Manzano speaks with authority and I think he’d make a great newscaster or even politician. Remember, image is everything, substance is nothing.

So my wife is training the kids to do the Papaya Dance. In case you are curious, here is a video of the Papaya Dance.

One of the keys to getting a good real estate buy is having knowledgeable real estate agents. A knowledgeable real estate agent knows the local market, knows what the right prices are in the market and knows how to help both buyers and sellers get a good deal. It’s to your advantage to find a knowledgeable real estate agent.

If you are looking for knowledgeable New York real estate agents, then you don’t need to look any further than Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate. Prudential Douglas Elliman has some of the most knowledgeable agents in New York. They have a great website full of information on the market in New York and some of the best listings for real estate in New York City, Long Island and the Hamptons. They’ll help you find the home you are looking for.

I have been busy looking for a VOIP number that can be used from a softphone anywhere on the internet and is cheap. I am not interested in one that needs to have some sort of hardware phone or device. I also want it to be affordable in cost. You’d think it would be easy to get, right?

You’d think wrong. I have a very difficult time trying to find one online. I am basically left with going with Skype which I suppose is ok. I’d love to hear some suggestions on a 100% softphone VOIP solution that can run under Linux. Maybe I should look more into Ekiga?

So, give me your suggestions of a cheap number, ok?
