More Gmail
it. I really dig the conversation threading that it created. Instead
of opening individual e-mails, you open a 'conversation' that shows
all of the e-mails in a thread in one web page so that you don't have
to keep clicking. If you want to reply to something, you click reply
under the e-mail you want to reply to and it automatically opens a
reply area right inside the page so that once again you don't need to
leave the page. Once you're done writing your e-mail, you click send,
and the little input area of the page disappears and your new message
appears at the bottom of the thread. It can also automatically
hide/show quoting so that you don't have to wade through old quotes.
Anyway, I'm pretty impressed, at least much more so than I ever
thought I'd be. I can see Gmail catching on quite a bit once it's
officially released.
Must do timesheet(s) today. Thankfully it should be relatively easy. More later.

Gmail!
was invited to get a Gmail account. So far, it seems pretty cool.
Although I'm only getting started with it. I like the keyboard
commands you can use from the main panel though.
Too Much Stuff...
I swear that the move from Minneapolis to Colorado Springs will never end. So far, we've dragged at least 4 Santa Fe's worth of stuff down to our Apartment, along with an Elantra worth, part of a moving truck worth, and a full size van worth. Our apartment is slowly getting to the point where we won't have any more storage, which means another round of binging and purging. But binging and purging aren't always bad things, at least when they don't involve puking on demand. ;-)
I think Big Fish comes out to the used section at Hollywood today, maybe I'll have to swing by and find out.
NP: Beastie Boy's - Ch Ch Check it Out
Just starting to listen to the new album. The jury is out. I do know I don't dig the politics, but the beats are so.... FUNKY. (shakes his little white boy booty as much as he can while he sits at his desk)
