Service

Yesterday, between running around to meetings (I was out of the office attending meetings regarding other, personal, interests, bet you didn’t even notice?) I loaded up Trillian and ran into an error connecting to ICQ. Last night I did it again. I made a note to check the Trillian user forums and see if this was a bug or something, but got involved looking at a friend’s site code and forgot all about it.

This afternoon I thought about it again, so I loaded up Trillian on my laptop to see if the connection error was still happening, and got prompted instead to install the update that fixed the connection problem. Nice work!

    Thanks to Cam World for pointing out this $399 computer from Walmart. When did Wally’s World start selling PC’s with no OS? That’s not a bad deal at all, seems like a pretty powerful machine, but no network card sort of sucks. That can be dealt with. I’ve never used a Microtel machine, anyone have…

    OK, the site is working again and I’m going to take a look at some other hosting packages in the near future, so that’s that for now. I’ll keep you informed, obviously, and I’m still open to suggestions but I’m moving on from my ranting about it. Life’s too short! 🙂 Thanks for the welcome…
