What BlackBerry Addiction says About Obama's Brain

Kermit Pattison — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 17:00:06 -0500

Obama may have won the election, but he’s about to lose his BlackBerry. During the campaign, Obama’s device was at his side more often than Joe Biden. Alas, change is coming: many expect that Obama will have to surrender his BlackBerry when he enters the Oval Office. We feel your pain, Barack. For many of us, going offline feels like cold turkey. Can email be addictive? Princeton University neuroscientist Sam Wang, co-author of Welcome to Your Brain, weighs in.

Google Saves You From Your Drunk Self

Chris Dannen — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 01:25:11 -0400

It’s the scourge of the new generation of computer-users. The ubiquity of electronic communications is so pervasive that sometimes you have access to the world when your brain has lost access to your fingers. Under those circumstances -- drunk as hell, or perhaps just high on life after seeing The Eagles -- you open up your laptop and scratch out an idiotic email that you invariably regret the next morning.

Nokia Expands Email Abilities; Buys OZ Communications

Chris Dannen — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 15:38:49 -0400

Around the smartphone industry, RIM [RIMM] is traditionally known as the email specialist. Now it appears that Nokia [NOK] might be trying to gin up a little competition for the Canadian Blackberry-maker by purchasing OZ Communications, a company that specializes in mobile messaging technologies.

The absorption of OZ, which, like RIM, is based in Canada, will allow Nokia's phones to achieve quicker access to instant messaging connectivity and Web-based email like Yahoo, GMail, AOL and Hotmail.

DJ Francis — Fri, 02 May 2008 07:15:07 -0400

In early April, I promised to give away free enewsletter advice. I am happy today to report back on the communication of a non-partisan, civic participation non-profit. They asked me not to mention them by name, so the organization will hereafter be known as “the client.” And, this client’s enewsletter was far better than at least 90% of what I have seen, so first, congrats to them!

Hands Free Voice to Email with Jott

Stephen L Rose — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 11:27:24 -0400

“Hi, this morning I’m using Jott. I’m actually in my car driving about 50 miles an hour, and sending an E-mail/message to myself to remind me of things I need to do today, while it’s still fresh in my head. So I no longer have to type and drive at the same time. Note to self: stop typing and driving. Very dangerous. This is a great mobile technology that I am very excited about it, so I’m gonna end the Jott and wait till I get back to my office finish and finish this blog entry.”

Need Help? Be Specific.

Karl Bimshas — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 16:54:08 -0400
When I was working at a Fortune 500 company, my division was internally merging with a culturally different organization. It was essentially the Gen X crowd versus the Baby Boomer generation. One side would list major accomplishments as; their wedding day, the birth of a child, or a trip abroad they had saved up for. The other; President's Club, numbers they hit, problems they solved. Two different worlds - united in the fact that we all very much disliked our new boss.

Xobni- Taming My Inbox

Stephen L Rose — Sun, 17 Feb 2008 01:37:53 -0500

A few weeks ago I ran into a Beta for a product called Xobni Insite. (Xobni is Inbox spelled backwards). Xobni is another in a long line of email taming tools (NeoPro, TrogBar, Jello.Dashboard, Orgoo, etc).

The big difference is this one really works.

Unlike a lot of the “inbox tamers” this one does not try to change the way I work. Instead it augments it. That was the key for me. I ran the Xobni installed, it installs a simple sidebar and starts to catalog all my emails. I have about 6 sets of Personal Folders and Xobni found them all.
