I have used three out of four of the services listed below so when I read Joe’s e-zine it was a good check-in for me. This will take a few minutes of your time, but the rewards are great when you realize how much time these offers (intrusions) are making on your day.

At Solo-E we have a wide range of experience and comfort using electronic communication. Here are a few widely accepted conventions for politeness.
Most people don’t want their email addresses publicized. If you are sending something to several people on your mailing list, put the addresses in the BCC box instead of the TO box. This will prevent the long list of names at the top of an email that breech privacy.

I’d been thinking/talking/writing about doing it for a while now. I’d start, only to relapse. But then something nudged me the right way a few weeks ago…I’ve finally kicked this habit and boy does it feel good!

Freeze and crash, it seemed was my daily (sometimes hourly) experience using Microsoft Outlook. Then my computer totally froze up. I swore that I would change email software, but alas, to learn a new email program just seemed too daunting when I had lost time without my computer and had to get back online fast after the repair.

Well I have really done it now! I was a very committed and responsible person, and I have been taken over by an addiction! An addiction so strong - that I am drawn to it every morning and each night. Now, I cannot do simple errands without taking my ‘drug of choice’ with me. That’s right folks - email! And I get my fix by using my new toy the "Crackberry".
I make this joke, because we all know how addicting e-mail is, and it is quite humorous to me to see people walking the streets, with the wireless blue tooth in their ear, (I thought for the longest time people were talking to themselves) but now we cannot leave our homes without our wireless voice and data plans! We literally have phones attached to our ears - e-mails in our palms and work on the brain!! The Treo, the Sidekick, the Nokia, and my device - the Crackberry also known as the Blackberry - have us chatting and engrossed in work, perhaps more than we care to.
I love my little device, but I think it is time I set some ground rules before I have to go into Rehab! That would be like Grandma’s Cottage - where there is no wireless signals for miles…might just have to book myself such a vacation!
All my best to you, wish me luck (tongue firmly planted in cheek)!
