Who invented these things?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

So, with the new schedule I’m getting home later, leaving me less time to listen to podcasts. I’m not able to listen to podcasts on my laptop while working on my desktop anymore either, so, again, less time to listen to podcasts. I’m trying to move the podcasts to my MP3 player to listen to at lunch or while walking from the parking garage downtown to my office. But I have a question.

What kind of sadist invented those little earbuds? Seriously, either they won’t stay in my ears, or they are ridiculously uncomfortable! Grr!

Yeah, this is one of the million little things that are different with the new job that I haven’t exactly adjusted to yet. All in good time grasshopper… 🙂

    As cool as Gmail is, there are some things that leave me frustrated with it. Here’s a short list of things I’d really like to see: – Give me an option to export contacts! Or, what would be even nicer, let me sync my Outlook contacts with Gmail contacts. Having started on Gmail before it…

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Thanks to Andy for leaving me a comment yesterday about the latest bug fix of Syndirella that specifically fixed the first character only problem with Win 98. Perhaps later today I’ll grab that and get a better idea of how it stacks up. For right now I’m enjoying the extra day of my weekend away…
