Firefox 3
Firefox 3 is freaking awesome. Gmail is at least 2 times faster than in Firefox 2. If you don't have it yet, download it here. Keep in mind that it is still the beta version so there may be some bugs. A lot of my extensions don't work with it yet, but I can live without most of them.

Why can't we just forget about the economy?
With all the talk about the economy going down the tubes these days, it is no wonder we're headed for a recession. Granted, the housing market and high oil prices certainly aren't helping anything. BUT, if the media didn't hype everything up so much, maybe people wouldn't get so scared and stop spending their money. Which, in turn (theoretically anyway), might help ease the pain of slowing growth.
The business cycle is a fact of a national economy. Unfortunately the majority of Americans haven't taken an economic class to actually realize that.

Messages and Newspapers
We had 20 messages on our answering machine yesterday when we came home. We've been having trouble getting our paper delivered correctly, on time, or at all (yes, we still get a paper, but only on Thursday and Sunday). So, my wife called to complain and have them drop it off.
The paper company thought it would be smart to call our home phone and find out if our paper had been delivered correctly, since they were going out of their way to specially deliver it. What did we hear on our machine, twenty times I might add?
"Press one if your paper was delivered correctly...BEEP"
You would think that with the technology they have these days the system would figure out it was talking to an answering machine since no one was pressing a button.
Then again, we do still get a paper, so I suppose I shouldn't complain.

How hard is it to set up a corporate email?
Today at work I realized something. Many small businesses (who knows how many) still don't have their own corporate email account and/or web page. Two of my clients both use a simple Yahoo account. I mean really...this is 2007 people!
If I wanted to I could pay $10 to GoDaddy or Google (using Google Apps), register my new domain and have a professional sounding email address in less than 30 minutes.
I wonder if consultants have considered this or not? Perhaps it should be my goal to have every small business in America up and running with their own corporate email account. After all, it would only cost them $10 a year...
