a look into 1999 Ultimate Newsflash Blog

This old film that was posted on the Ultimate Newsflash blog is pretty neat and worth taking a look at. I think its so funny how Father will get a virtual electronic mail of the bills. this movie was made in the late 60's and depicts how things maybe in the year 1999. they actually did a very good job.

AIM + Google whats up with that?

last night while I was on chat in bright red lettering in my gmail read "New! AIM chat in Gmail" You always have to watch out for these unless you want to be like me and be the last one to know I was using the newer version of gmail for some time before i saw the button use older version... their announcements are as subtle as there add I guess.

Meet Sandy | 43 Folders

Meet Sandy | 43 Folders
Yea know I could use a gal like her. Sandy is an automated assistant and a lot more attractive than Mr Clippy, I found her in the clasic 43 folders blog and Just hired her..(free of charge) you can kind of say she's on probation. This may be a cool idea and certainly now that I have headed back to email. The premise is You are to let Sandy know your appointments and she will email you reminders I can certainly see this service taking off. this was my correspondence with sandy this far I emailed her to remind me to finish this post.

Butch to Sandy > Remind me to finish your blog post at 2:30 am

Sandy to Butch >Hello, Butch! You asked me to remind you about something -- relax and leave it to me!

Sandy to Butch > Hola, Butch! Psssst! Here's your reminder: #1 2:30am Finish your blog post- email reminder at 2:15am

Now Sandy can also text/sms you to you mobile or send to another email account, Sandy also works with Jott (which i don't use) But she can also send you stuff out on your Twitter very hip this Sandy Gal. Also when I log into her website I can down-load my appointments and put it straight into Kontact Calender. I think this a a great way to set up reminders with a sort of personal touch. She recognizes short commands like remind and remember that you put in your email to her. very cool.

Next week I will publish her evaluation, and let you know how she did. My expectations are: like most things in the organized World, your only going to get out of it what you put into it. But I'll give the gal a break

Disposable Digital storage ?

Sandisk is now coming out with disposable write once storage, is this changing anything, I dont think so. there are really only two reasons I can see how this will work. For one if your going on vacation and want a back up just in case, and two if you put some music on it and place it in your PDA which no one ever seams to have any more (except on ebey) ...
