Dan asked me to post an update as I explore deeper into the Google forest. I'm now fully committed to Gmail and Google Calendar (why isn't it GCalendar?) and Outlook is now purely an evil tolerated for work purposes only. And with Rob Howard's

My daughter thinks it's funny when I talk about Gmail - she says it sounds like "super hero mail". I am of course ok with that. I've been using it more and more recently. I've been sucking in my personal email to Gmail for a month

Yeah, working as a FTE does change your perspective. Way, way back I loved reading about and playing with SEO techniques - all new and sneaky. Just this month I've started looking around again at what's going on and frankly I'm stunned. All

Last summer, prompted by a neighbor who has the UPS guy at her front door even more than we do, my wife decided to get into "selling stuff online". It's not just beanie babies on eBay apparently. There's a lot to learn about - wholesalers,

With just one day to go, I wake up and realize that I never did link to Scott Cate's promotion in aid of Diabetes . EasySearchASP.NET is cool regardless, so it's worth checking out. (One side-effect of using this title - at least 1 in 3 developers

Today I was tidying my office and came across an old UK car registration document that I no longer needed (obviously). A reg for a 1937 Ford that is, so quite unusual. I had bought a US title and "imported" it into the UK back in '96 to

I just found out that my recent Woot purchase, a 19” LCD Monitor, has been lost by Fedex. L The tracking simply stopped after arrival at Carol Stream, IL a week ago. I’ve never been through this process before so it will be interesting –

I'm looking forward to seeing how this pans out - most people I've read seems to say that Netflix rules, Blockbuster drools. I disagree ( and I'm not alone ) Blockbuster' s recent (and well overdue) improvement to their service should

OurLittleNet's domains are expiring, and today I notice that www.OurRoswell.net is starting to fail when requested. Only the alternative RoswellGA.ourlittle.net domains will continue to work. It's the end of an era. The Our Roswell website went live (on
