Catching my eye this morning

In the most recent edition of Support Alert, a site to share large files with a friend, and a free Excel add-in:

Dropload is a free web service that allows you upload files to
their server that can then be picked up by someone else. The
intended recipient automatically receives an email from Dropload
telling them that the file is available along with download
instructions. Maximum file size is 100MB and all files are
deleted after seven days whether they are collected or not.

In Issue 113, I mentioned WordToys a program that provides a set
of enhanced functions for MS Word. Subscriber John Viney has
written in to let me know about the ASAP Utilities program that
provides a similar set of enhancements for Excel. I checked it
out and it’s quite impressive with over 300 individual functions
and tools. I particularly liked the one that allowed you to
automatically color alternating lines. It’s a presentation style
I use a lot and have always had to do manually. The good news is
that the ASAP utilities are free. Excel 97-2003, 1.8MB.

And yes, Support Alert is definitely one of those news letters that I highly recommend!

    Last night, I met a friend for drinks and dinner after work. Imagine, if you will, a very hip drinking establishment, right smack dab in the middle of the Arena district of Columbus.

  • Oh I hate that

    I hate when I’m at the in-laws and I forget to change the outgoing server stuff for the email. Their SBC Yahoo dialup connection only lets you send email out through their server, and I spent soo freakin’ long trying to figure out why my email wouldn’t send from Outlook. Duh!

  • Depressing morning

    How’s this for a depressing way to start the day? I was woken up from a dream about work, so that I could get ready to go to work, by a wife who doesn’t have to work today. It can only get better from there, right? 🙂 Follow these topics: Uncategorized

  • Speaking of..

    Speaking of IT folks solving their own problems, Jason has an interesting problem he’s trying to solve with the public wifi hotspots where he works. I don’t have a solution, but I tend to think that if you’re creating public hotpots you don’t worry about neighbors getting access. Of course, maybe that’s just me. Follow…
