Easing in..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I ask you, is having your pseudo-ISP inform you that they’re switching all their email filtering stuff over to Postini, and that you have until the end of this short week to not only understand what that means, but get used to handling your own anti-spam and quarantine settings and teach everyone on staff about what that means and how to make their own choices on handling these things, any way to ease back into work after a long weekend?

I thought not..

That being said, I think this is going to be a good change, but there will be a significant adjustment to be made by my users and that usually brings a mixed bag of reactions, so I’m expecting the same. I’ll know more tomorrow when my Postini account goes live and I can get a feel for everything before turning over all the other accounts. Anyone ever used the Postini service? Your feelings?

The speakers and tech information…

    Sometime over the weekend I’ll be doing some updating of blogrolls, adding some, removing others, etc. Mostly I’ll be removing folks who just aren’t updating very often, or folks who’s blog have evolved into subjects that don’t really interest me any longer. Don’t take it personally, it happens, just as I’m sure some people have…

    Since I couldn’t get past recreating that crash everytime I imported my OPML file into News Desk, I decided a change would do me good. So now I’m reading my news in Sharpreader, which has become a much nicer product in the time since I last tried, unsuccessfully, to use it! I was sort of…

    Just saw this post over at PC-Doctor, where he talks about DiamondCD RegistryProt 2.0, a tool that keeps an eye on your PC’s registry and let’s you know if any malware tries to make changes to it. I might have to check that out, if nothing else it’s another layer of free protection for your…

    Been enjoying some non-techie time all weekend with the wife, but logged back in to discover that the Child Abuse site is offline. I’ve got an email out to the host, so we’ll see what’s happening on that front. I don’t have any idea what happened. If you’re looking for it, that’s all I know!…
