The 82nd Academy Awards were held Sunday night, but overnight ratings are not expected to be good.  This is due in part to declining ratings in past years and the show running an hour past prime time.  This is also due to the fact that people are losing interest in the show.

These days there are more choices when it comes to TV viewing, there are more channels, there are more programs and there are on-demand and DVR’s. The Oscars had there heyday when there were few networks and fewer channels. Polls on the Internet are showing that more people will not be watching the Oscars than will be watching.

Even those people who are interested in the Academy Award results, can find those results on the Internet, seconds after they were announced. or wait until after the show to get the full results. See the bottom of this blog entry to get the Academy Awards results.

Just as there are so many television options as alternatives to the Ocars, Telsec has many options for Toronto office space solutions. At Telsec, you can choose shared office space, semi private office space, team space, executive office space, city view office, lake view office and even a corner office. The choices of office options do not end at physical office space, as Telsec also offers Toronto virtual offices. You can choose to have Toronto mail service at a prestigious address or mail and telephone answering service Toronto where your calls are answered by a professional receptionist who handle your calls to your instructions.

Before I give you the Academy Award results, I should mention that when you choose office space Toronto from Telsec, you are not only getting a great office space, but you are also getting a great downtown office location that offers easy access to public transit and plenty of inexpensive parking.

In closing, I also have to send a compliment to the organizers and staff of the Toronto International Bicycle Show for a fantastic job they did this past weekend.  I was not only entertained, but I found some amazing deals.  A new feature to this years bicycle show was the 24 hour spin. Hundreds of cyclists rode stationary bikes over the coarse of 24 hours to raise money for children with cancer.

Google Celebrates 40th Aniversary of Sesame Street

This year marks the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street. While the 40th anniversary show does not air until November 10th, Google is celebrating today by having Big Bird’s feet as its latest logo doodle. It took a while, but I noticed that the doodle looked a bit different than there usual themed doodles. Usually the letters are in the google themed order – blue, red, yellow, blue green red – but not this time, all the letters are yellow in honour of big bird (whose feet are part of today’s logo).

If it was not enough for First Lady Michelle Obama to appear in the first episode of Sesame Street’s 40th season? Even United States President Barack Obama will be opening the show with a brief video. According to one news source I read, he will say the something like “Todays Sesame Street is brought to you by the number 40″.

Like many of the people reading this blog, I grew up with Sesame Street. I learned some very valuable lessons. We all have our favorite characters, for most it is Big Bird, for me It was the Transylvanian Count von Count.

In Honour of Count, I am going to leave you these points about Telsec. I hope I get the Transylvanian accent down good. Ok accents do not translate well in the written word, so you will just have to go back to your childhood and imagine Count Von Count saying this.

Ooonnne good address at the number one address on Canada’s most famous street, 1 Yonge Street.

Toronto Mail Service

When you open a Toronto mail service account or a virtual office Toronto account that includes a prestigious mailing address in a Downtown Toronto office space building, your mail is held for you or redirected to you on a weekly basis.

If it is convenient to visit the office once or twice a week, keeping up on your mail is easy to keep track of your mail. If you getting a large sum of mail on a weekly basis and have it re directed, it can become quite a chore to sort out.

Too often these days most of our postal mail is junk mail and un-solicited offers to do business. The mail we do want like cheques and  contracts seem to get buried in the pile of mail we recieve. While most of our mail is not of an urgent matter, often times there is mail we want ASAP.

When mail is delivered to Telsec’s Toronto virtual office, the staff sorts it into the appropriate mail slots for each client. Some clients choose to have all mail forwarded to them on a weekly basis, but others prefer to call in and see if they have mail. Then there are the clients who have chosen to use the secretarial services and have their mail categorized and even opened to check for contents. For a small nominal fee, they can have cheques forwarded on a daily basis and the remainder of their mail sent on a weekly basis.

Telsec works with their clients to find office service and secretarial packages that work best for the client. Even when a client wants a special service provided, there are no hidden fees, the price is provided to them up front.

When you call Telsec, ask one of their friendly and professional staff about the many secretarial and administrative services they provide to their clients.
