It amazes me

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yes, it amazes me that I can tell people over and over again that when they bring in new staff I need to know in advance because setting up network logons, permissions, and working with our ISP to get their email account setup takes time, yet I still manage to learn about new staff by meeting them in the hallway on their first day here. And what’s even better? They look at me like I’m some sort of slacker when I tell them that none of that stuff has been setup yet.

Yeah I’m in a really good mood now! Grrr.

    I got the first check from the CafePress store in the mail yesterday. It was for $26.30, which, when combined with the $14-15 I’ve got coming from the Amazon links at the end of the year will make a nice little donation to Prevent Child Abuse. Of note, yes I have decided to go ahead…

    Rick Klau has some interesting comments about Gmail. I do think this is just the beginning for where Google is headed with this. I envision big things. I didn’t sign up for an account for a long time, even though as a Blogger user I was eligible, because personally I still like living in Outlook…

    I’ve been reading some of the eyewitness reports on the oral arguments in this case that took place yesterday at the Supreme Court, and I have a question. Maybe not a legal question, but certainly a common sense one. If the Constitutional limits on Congress, in terms of copyright, are “copyrights must be limited in…
