Lockergnome

I said earlier that I was reserving judgement on the new Lockergnome layouts and things until after I’ve used them for awhile, and I intend to do just that. However, one thing that is irritating me (And today, everything is irritating me, so maybe it’s just my mood.) is that the RSS feed for the IT Specialist content always shows up as new in NewsDesk, no matter that it hasn’t been new since last week, and that I’ve marked it “read” in NewsDesk time and time again.

Update: Once I got a comment that confirmed I wasn’t the only one seeing this, I went ahead and dropped an email to the feedback address for their site. Meryl was kind enough to let me know that she would pass along the info to the proper “behind the scenes” folks to get it corrected!

    Looks like I wasn’t the only one trying out Knoppix yesterday. Library Planet had this to say: This goes way beyond DemoLinux. I stuck the CD in, re-booted, and had to hit enter one time to get it started. It identified all the hardware with no user intervention and booted right up. Thanks to a…

    As a bit of a follow up to last night’s Gnomedex comments, let me say this. I do think it’s the attendees that make a conference great. The great thing about Gnomedex is that the attendees are interesting people who I enjoy meeting and talking to. That’s really even more important than who the speakers…

  • Why?

    I have a question, when you’re switching from using Outlook Express 6 to Outlook 2000, why does Outlook refuse to import message rules that are incompatible with older versions of Outlook? At least I think that’s what happened, when I imported the message rules, all of the “mail from specified account” rules didn’t import, and…
