Yeah, I found the lack of closure and the misleading title disappointing, and it doesn't compel me to want to read the book, to be honest. The writer lives in SF, so I guess anything that isn't Manhattan might as well be lumped together. Read more

What about feeding all Gmail accounts through one main account using colored labels to distinguish between each individual account? Then, the issue is just about setting up the reply-from properly on each individual account. Read more

Even though I use Remember the Milk religiously, I kind of use Notepad as a "todo" list. I have a very clutter-free desktop and taskbar. If I need to reply to an email and have a bunch of things in my clipboard, I'll throw them in Notepad and make sure they are done (and they ALWAYS are) by the time I close the Read more

What's the reason that Apple has to make it only available in select countries anyhow? Read more

I like Backupify as well. And I wouldn't say a cloud backing up a cloud is a fake backup. I backup my personal data to CrashPlan (also the cloud) and also most of the files locally, which works for me. I haven't seen either cloud server fail yet, so until they do, they're pretty "real" to me. Read more

Where were they going? What would have happened if they refused to be searched? Read more

That's the software my old employer had used to spy on us. Glad I left that job. And no, Casey, I was older than a teenager and didn't initially know anything — until I did and didn't even know what to do about it. Read more

Gizmodo, as much as The Big Picture was awesome, I always hated that the other photoblogs that are just as good (and some better) never get appreciation — mostly because you all don't know about them. Read more

People are seriously considering buying iPads? Even though we had our holiday season not long ago, I knew by then that the iPad 2 was around the corner and I've been waiting for one since. It's only a matter of time... Read more

One vote for CrashPlan here — they have a GREAT family plan. I liked Carbonite but now I've moved up. :) Read more

@Tamar Weinberg: p.s. to be clear, I beat these things to death. So when I say "goes bad repeatedly," it's my doing, not Dell's. :) Read more

For laptop purchases, I ALWAYS buy refurb and I ALWAYS buy the extended warranty. The result? When my computer goes bad repeatedly, Dell offers me a computer replacement. Read more

@Mrrix32: LOL it is! But it looks like nobody knows that such a feature exists. There is not a single (featured) comment that explains how to turn them off. All you need to do is uncheck all the "comments after you..." options on the link above. Read more

There are also some really good photoblogs that I'd recommend: Read more

@CptTripps: I totally agree with you. However, the item in the picture which I believe Jesus is contesting is the bra which is sold separately from all pumps. It's a $26 item that is the most amazing thing ever. I speak after having used one for 10 months. Read more

When I gave birth 6 weeks early, I had no choice but to breast feed from a hospital grade pump and this contraption actually saved my life (and my son's). Do you realize how long it takes to pump and how many times per day you need to do it? It saves about 6-8 hours. Read more
