Outlook 2003 Still Sucks
Despite my best efforts, there are folks still using the crappiest PIM on the planet (Outlook 2003). I'm still in its 2000 incarnation, which is far faster than the newer code. Given that Robert Scoble thinks I've become boring (no, just busy), I thought I'd share with you one of my recent articles in CPU Magazine. I've been given full permission to do it here, too… so long as everybody who reads it promises to subscribe. M'kay? M'kay. What tools did I miss?
Self-improvment with RSS
Since the world seems to still have syndication skeptics, I was forced to write this article. Actually, I thought I wrote more originally – but since it went through a very trusted editor, I trust that he knows how to properly assemble information. Syntax likely it's the way got in! So, like… I click on the link to see what the editors picked for their favorite feeds, and… I must really suck worse than I thought I originally sucked. Well, I'm happy to see that the Lockergnome contributor list is still very healthy. We have quite a few review units floating our way soon, as the Scribblers discovered.
Chesticles
Well, there's a first time for everything. I can't tell you exactly what it's for, but some CEO out there decided to rent my chest for a new product launch this Friday. That's not the interesting part, though. I was sent a digital picture taken of a whiteboard – with a mock-up of my chest, exactly where the text should go. My bubbies were circled with mystical hyperlinks back to the site. I don't have the nipples to tell 'em that I don't typically create imagemaps, but (somehow) I don't think they'll complain if someone gets to their URL via my belly button.
