Back to work again

I was hoping the long weekend would never end, but it did. So sad! It’s ok, it’s storming outside now, so it’s not like I’m missing good weather! Anyway, thanks for the debate Scoble! It’s been fun to have some back and forth on the topic, without it getting personal. I’ll admit I can see some reasons why people would want to real-time blog, but I still think 99% of the world would be better off doing one thing at a time, and blogging it later. It’s been shown that “multi-tasking” seriously reduces your ability to do anything well, so I’d rather do one thing at a time and do it well. I know I’m one of the folks who has trouble doing more than one thing at once!

The “debate” even picked up some flow from bloggers in Italian and French giving me plenty of reason to use the Free Translation Service, and making me feel like a bit of an international celebrity for a minute. *L*

You can read about my first little test with Open Office’s HTML Editor over in the forums. I posted it there to shorten this post some and give you the option of not reading it if you don’t care at all about it. 🙂

There’s a vulnerability in Opera that you should know about. Download version 6.03 to be protected from it. (Thanks to Geek for the head’s up!)

    Maybe. I found another machine that sends emails like mine does. They always go through and they push or drag the other emails with them. Once I found that, it was simply a matter of figuring out what my machine and that one have in common that others don’t. Well, it’s one of the new…

  • Attensa

    Among the many news items coming out of Gnomedex last week, I saw an announcement of a public preview for a new Outlook-based RSS reader, Attensa. So being ever so curious, I downloaded it this weekend. It’s actually not bad. It supports importing OPML, is pretty customizable, allows you to publish items to your blog…

  • Integrity

    It’s my considered opinion that whether we’re talking about real life or blog-life, the people who have integrity don’t really have to spend any time talking about their integrity. Much has been made of the fact that people like Chris and Doc were given paid trips to Redmond for a Microsoft event and whether or…

  • Scoble, RSS and fair use..

    Scoble has stopped his experimental blog. As he says, he’s reached a point where some folks think he’s “stealing their content” by reposting it to an aggregated blog. It’s an interesting idea, but I think they’re wrong, although I’m not a lawyer and I certainly think he’s probably wise to shut it down until he…

  • Selling your boss

    Thanks to a link on SimpleGeek, I saw this article by Michael Hyatt called “How to Sell Your Boss”. While not as specific to IT as some of the stuff I’ve been talking about, some of the general ideas are similar, and well, let’s face it, it’s written more elegantly than anything I blog. 🙂…
