Outlook continues to drive us all batty. I’ve just upgraded to a newer machine and while it might not be the speediest beast on the planet, the 2 gigs of RAM makes everything run better including Outlook. But I digress. Outlook 2007 is trying to make our e-mail more secure, but it’s junk mail filtering […]
My friend Ben Yoskovitz laments a common problem we all have faced dealing with folks via e-mail…not getting a critical question answered:
And that’s frustrating. You can’t keep asking the same question over and over, and presumably you’re asking the question because you really want an answer.

Plaxo launched v3.0 of it’s online contact management service/tool today, and since it’s in the news you might be wondering if you should use it (or restart using it if you have been away from it for a while).

Ah the out of office message. Can’t remember when I’ve had to put one of those up. Which isn’t a good sign, really is it? Anyway, sometimes you don’t just want the basic “I’m not here” message to go to everyone. It is possible to be more clever in Outlook (and I gather Gmail), you […]
Being a Windows guy, I don’t really have a plethora of Mac tips. Well at least OS X. Ask me about earlier versions and I might be able to help (though my old PowerComputing tower machine is going to become an Ubuntu server soon), OS X, not so much. I do, however, keep my eye […]
