Lack of communication

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

We didn’t get back from the in-laws until late yesterday evening. With all the wedding stuff and all the various family members to visit with (They are a big, Southern family, there’s a bunch of them, and they all love to tell stories!!) I never even fired up the laptop all weekend. In fact, I did a quick scan of email last night before bed, which was the only online activity I had between leaving work Friday and arriving this morning.

Angela asked if I was getting jittery from lack of online activity, but you know, it actually felt good to be away for a time. 😉

Oh well, it’s probably about time we…

    Yes it’s true, I really do hate trial subscriptions that tech magazines seem to give away to everyone. In my former work life, there was something that I had signed up for using my home address rather than my work address. I don’t even remember what it was but whoever I gave that address to,…

    Yup, the new version of Amphetadesk that I previewed for you is now available. You can take a look at the release notes here. Meryl even pointed to a fun interview with Morbus about the release.

  • What else can go wrong?

    So the voice mail system went kaput! already this morning. There’s nothing quite like looking over at your phone and seeing the red light next to the voice mail button on solid red when you don’t have the phone off the hook. Hmm let’s see, if I hit the button it says “Voicemail is Unplugged”….
