Office 2007 Beta

Yup, downloaded it last night. Took until this evening to get it activated. Highly recommend you disable the AVG Outlook plugin that scans incoming email BEFORE you fire up Outlook 2007 to download your email. The email will come in with no content if you let AVG scan it, there is no way to get it back if that’s the only copy you have of the email. Disabling the scanner will bring in new messages with the content visible, ones that were scanned are gone. (Luckily for me, the only messages involved had already been read on my blackberry.)

I’ll have much more to say about Office 2007, I just wanted that bit of important information out there ASAP. In fact, I’ll be relaunching the Office Beta Notes blog sometime in the next few days, where I’ll do nothing but talk about Office. I need to do some reconfiguring of the template to make it fit in with the rest of the site first. Look for a link here by the end of the weekend for sure.

    Noting this for myself for when I’m at my work machine tomorrow, and any other Greasemonkey users who might see a similar problem, the new update to Greasemonkey, version 0.3.3 seems to have broken at least one of the user scripts that I use (Gmail Smart Delete button). Check for updates to user scripts if…

    This should be about the last blog entry before we take off for Boston. Our flight’s at some ungodly hour (6AM), which with airport security being what it is, means us at Port Columbus around 4AM. Needless to say, there will be no time for an online presence this evening. But here’s a short list…

  • Whoo Hoo I got one!!!

    Yeah I got an invite to the Alpha test of Trillian Astra. What did you think I was talking about? Is there something else going on this week? 😉 Anyway, I had actually forgotten all about signing up as being interested, it’s been that long. I actually haven’t been using Trillian a whole lot lately….
