telecom, technology and the occasional floobergeist

I’ve got an abundance of bits and pieces of canadian telecom and internet experience, and I am thrilled to be in a place in time when all is changing, technology is developing, and the status quo is being disrupted. 

Floobergeist is a word that is beginning to defy definition.  The more I roll that smooth pebble around, the more it becomes to mean. Floobergeist started out as the magic dust that turns dreams into ideas.  And then it began to encompass the zing that happens when you have conversations about those ideas. And now, it’s the whole evolution from dream to conversation, with each step improving the later and the former along the way.

Everyone aspires to good conversations. They can lead you to adventures you’ve never imagined, and to people you can twig with.

Let’s have a good conversation…

welcome.

Alec has got a few awesome things going on - one is how to deal with a bloated inbox. I've really got to organize by conversation. There's nothing worse than responding to somethin that's got 3 new updates to it.

 

Next, I read the remaining messages using “conversation view”.  That way I can simply read the last mail in the thread, respond and delete the rest.  It’s fast, and very efficient.   It’s even faster, more efficient and easier on the wrist if you ditch the mouse and learn to use the keyboard shortcuts in Outlook — CTRL-R to reply, CRTL-SHIFT-V to file, DEL to delete.Alec Saunders SquawkBox, Oct 2006

You should read the whole article.

Plus - Alec's also got this wicked widget that lets me write my *own* blog article based on a quote from his blog. Zemanta. I want more people to use it!!! ;-)
