Update: I’m lovin’ it!!! It’s a music player and a browser: not to mention a media search center, social networking portal and a floor wax!
Frustrated by a few limitations of gmail I suddenly thought, “Surely there are some gmail hacks pages out there.” Voila! For anyone interested, here are a few I’ve found (most of what I found was out of date and not very helpful):
Gmail Pro
Cyber Knowledge
And of course, there is even a Hacking Gmail book.
Don’t forget that the people around you are humans and not machines. Here’s another great quote from Charles Wagner:
People burn with ardor for humanity, for the public good, for righting distant wrongs; they walk through life, their eyes fixed on marvelous sights along the horizon, treading meanwhile on the feet of passer-bys, or jostling them without being aware of their existence. – Charles Wagner

If you’re going to post anything to the Yahoo time capsule, you’d better do it in the next 21 days. I just noticed this today, but it’s another cool form of human connecting. While there is no direct sharing going on between participants, it does give a sense of human connectedness.
Before you get totally immersed in technobabble world today, why not pause and listen to the thoughts of a 14th century Sufi mystic.
I hold the Lion’s Paw
Whenever I dance.
I know the ecstasy of the falcon’s wings
When they make love against the sky,
And the sun and the moon
Sometimes argue over
Who will tuck me in at night.
If you think I am having more fun
Than anyone on this planet
You are absolutely correct.
But Hafiz
Is willing to share all his secrets
About how to befriend God.
Indeed dear ones,
Hafiz is so very willing
To share all his secrets
About how to know the
Beautiful
One.
I hold the Lion’s Paw whenever I dance.
Hafiz
It’s official, the United States is full of Internet Addicts. Yipes! I think I better spend a few hours googling that.
Every act should be performed as though all eternity depended on it.
– Franz Rosenzweig
