Service

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

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!

    Well it defintely seems that our ISP has done some new things with their Spam filtering, but I have no idea what. I just got some things figured out in the last few weeks, like the fact that we couldn’t email anyone coming from an Asian host and they couldn’t email us, but now there’s…

    Yeah it’s true, I do have to come in and run some more database stuff this weekend. Seems that Ohio redrew it’s legisative districts, and with an election coming up in November, those political people upstairs want me to run all of our database records through the district queries to catch the changes.

    According to all the standardized tests I took back in the day, somewhere between 90-95% of the country is dumber than I am. I’m not saying that to brag, because, frankly, that scares the bejeezus out of me. After all, I can’t even put on matching clothes without asking my wife for help, have only…

    I did get to try and install StatCounteX yesterday, and then this morning found the version that adds password protection to the stats, which I was rather disappointed wasn’t there to begin with. Turns out it was a user uploaded version. There wasn’t much in the way of documentation, I guess that’s a hazard of…
