  1. Facebook Social Connector for Outlook 2010 is really good. It even sometimes gives me info for people with whom I'm not Facebook friends.
  2. Yup, Yahoo search now uses Bing results.
  3. Battery life poop. What happened to five hours?
  4. Hotmail's new support for Exchange ActiveSync means my in mail, calendar, and contacts on my iPad. :-) http://bit.ly/8XEhmt
  5. @switchfoot, To answer your question, I sure hope I am. :-/
  6. Scooter Roomba, why can you not also pick up my room? .__.
  7. Go fourth, Scooter Roomba, and munch up all those icky bugs that hide places.
  8. No one else is home? What are pants?
  9. @SuperMashBros great show last night. Too bad the opener wasn't even of the same genre. :-/
  10. Swing is a great widget toolkit for making ugly Java user interfaces.
  11. Java is a four-letter word.
  12. @darkdragongirl If *I* won the lottery, I'd create a fuzzy, warm den deep underground and only leave for food and toilet.
  13. It's difficult to notice potential when all I can see is my stupid reflection. (Who doesn't feel like that from time to time?)
  14. Printer! I don't care that you are out of photo magenta! I just want to print this black and white document AAUUGH!
  15. All things considered, an ugly face isn't too difficult to fix. An ugly personality is a whole different story.
  16. Google Voice advantage number 1362: I'm inside without cell coverage, but I can still text from my laptop with the wifi. :-)
  17. I have decided that Windex, paper towels, and flinchy, grabby movements are pretty much the ultimate defense against spiders.
  18. @bingmaps but bing maps used Silverlight for the 3D for a bit, but now I have to install that older plugin. :-/
  19. @bingmaps I don't get it... why did you revert all the nice Silverlight stuff? Now Bing Maps is worse!
  20. OK, random holidays in Outlook, prepare to meet your maker!
