Watch those typos

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

This morning, after a doctor’s appointment, I was greeted by a frightened employee worried about what might show up in her Internet History. It seems that she wanted to check a prices on something at a sporting soods store and inverted two of the letters in the name, when she typed the URL. That new word was a whole different sort of site from what she was looking for, and what would be considered work appropriate. Needless to say a quick accident like that, while it would grab my attention, wouldn’t result in a problem so long as you immediately left that site. Several hits to that site, on the other hand, I might have to report. 🙂

    See, sometimes Microsoft has a good idea . By limiting the number of messages you can send with a free email account, they cut off all those spammers using hotmail accounts to send spam. That would be a good thing, and the 100 messages per day should be plenty for normal users. Really, if you…

    As a personal note, since I just arrived back in the office from a visit to the eye doctor, and the ordering of new glasses for my new prescription, find a job with vision coverage! 🙂 Seriously, just a small tweak to my prescription was needed, to try and account for the fact that my…

    A lot of the stats Doug lists in his article, including the ones I’ve quoted below, are not surprising to me.

    It seems my laptop battery is on it’s last legs. I can only get about 15 minutes of time before it shuts itself down. It comes right back up, with plenty of charge, so I know it’s not a charging issue, it just seems to think it’s not charged and shuts the laptop off. HP’s…
