Blog This problem

Am I the only one having this problem? When I use the BlogThis! button on the Google toolbar in IE, the link is formatted incorrectly. For example, if I were to use that to link to yahoo.com, I wind up with a link to http://www.mikemcbrideonline.com/http://www.yahoo.com. I then have to go back and retype the HTML to get the link to show up correctly.

I guess I’ll go set Sharpreader to use Mozilla as the default browser when I’m reading and pointing to news items, since that’s usually how I wind up in an IE window to begin with.

    I hate when I’m at the in-laws and I forget to change the outgoing server stuff for the email.

    In response to some of the comments on the post below: Marc wonders what my platform would be, he suggests “Two PC’s in every house”. I’m thinking more along the lines of “What do I look like, Santa Claus? Get a job and buy your own stuff!”It’s not exactly the “caring” platform, but you know…
