I do great work.

To address another point: It's not that Sparrow looks pretty. I mean, it *does* look pretty. But Sparrow, notifications aside, is a better client, hands down. It's more intuitive. If you use Gmail, it can archive and delete, as you please. It does threading better. It's full of user-experience niceties that make it a Read more

Certainly. That's a workplace problem, to a large degree. I hate the idea that email is used for so many types of communication. Urgent, non-urgent, short-form, long-form, etc. I think that's a big part of the problem with email. It's items of all kinds of importance and time sensitivity, all dumped into one giant, Read more

I guess I'm talking about both to an extent, but by way of push as a starting point. I think push, specifically, it the greater evil. If your email account were to check every, say, 1 hour, that's still a better distraction rate than *any time anything new comes in*. Read more

Huh. I have no idea why you're getting this message. Looking into it. Read more

Yes! Would kill for that... assuming folks with privacy concerns could turn it off. Read more

If you read the full post, though, that' not the only problem. There's also the "3G tail". Read more

Works for me in Windows, too. You might want to try arrowing down, then back up to the autocomplete suggestion you want to remove, then hit Shift+Delete. Let me know if that works for you! Read more

I know it won't remove bookmarks from autocomplete, but I'm assuming that's not the issue you're talking about. Do you mean from the address bar, or somewhere else? Read more

Really? Was just testing on OS X and needed to press Shift. Is it a platform difference? Read more

I set the exact same shortcut, too! It's awesome. Read more
