Note for next vacation

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Next time I go on vacation, I need to go somewhere that is not internet accessible. As much as I love keeping up with the blog, this trip is really more about getting away from work and that was blown to heck today.

By having access to my work email, I know that I’m going back to work to replace a bad hard drive, and I know that there’s been a real outbreak of virus attachments hitting our email addresses. Don’t know that anyone has actually opened the attachments, but it wouldn’t shock me if someone did. *sigh* So while Monday and Tuesday were incredible days, today I was thinking about work for much of my drive. That sucks! I refuse to think about work anymore, this is my vacation dammit! 🙂

    I saw this little utility on Lockergnome today and just had to try it out. It works pretty much as advertised. It automatically filled in the server details for Gmail and Yahoo, but not Hotmail. I could set-up any SMTP server manually though. I could easily right-click any file and use the “backup to email”…

    Right in the middle of yesterday’s stress-filled running around, trying to get everything and everyone to the right place and then back again, I found out that my grandmother died. I couldn’t, at that time, really think about it or try to find out what the funeral arrangements were and whether we would be able…

    Here’s a couple of online annoyances: First, I forgot to grab the classified section from Sunday’s Columbus Dispatch on the way to work yesterday. So I wander over to their website, go through the classifieds section, get to the employment section and tell it to show me all the Computer-type jobs from Sunday’s paper. Of…

    Scoble’s got a link and some of his own comments on Orkut. I pretty much agree, I didn’t find myself going over there much after the first few days. There simply wasn’t enough to hold my interest, even in the communities, which is maybe the best part of Orkut. The problem there is that those…
