Coolness that comes from blogging

Got this email earlier today: (name witheld)

Hi Mike,

two days ago I got this strange e-mail that corrupted my outlook pst-file. Normally the monthly backup take care of problems like this but it was three weeks ago and I had some really important stuff that had come in these last few days. Checked the web and found some s/w that seemed to do the trick but at USD 250 they were a bit to high priced for a one time problem. Worked with different workarounds for the problem for hours and hours, there had to be a way….

Finally found your blog and the note on renaming and importing all outlook folders but the inbox and presto! Done in ten minutes and everything in order.

Thank you Mike, you are the man. Should you by any chance ever happen to pass by the godforsaken country called Sweden, I’ll take you for a night on the town and you are welcome to bunk in our guest-room.

Yeah, pretty much made my day, without a doubt!

    If you want a personal update on where things are with me this week, go here. I think you’ll see why I haven’t been blogging much at all lately, and may not be for a while. I did, in the midst of it all, catch this little story about MS cutting the price for Office…

    Well Blogger Pro is working for me now. Can’t wait to do some playing with it! Perhaps I’ll even setup a mail list so you can get my new posts emailed to you or something. I like the item title option as well. Now I can give some posts titles..cool. I need the spellcheck! I…

  • The famous 10%

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I was reading through blogs today when I found this post by Ian about Photoshop and the fact that folks use 10 percent of the features. One of Ian’s comments struck an interesting cord with me: He may only use 10% but perhaps I use a different 10%. It got me thinking about the where…
