Unsolicited Commercial Email
If you’ve noticed a recent resurgence in the amount of spam you receive, this Network World article explains why: Security networks send spammers underground. GMail does a good job of filtering spam to it’s own folder, and I delete it every day. This gives me the ability to estimate of how much I am receiving daily. It has approximately doubled in the past three months.
Stocking Stuffer
This Princeton Tec Tool was in my stocking Thursday, probably so I could wear it out to the barn to feed the horses at night. I was surprised that such a small device could produce such brilliant light: in fact, I ended up using the dimmest of the non-strobe settings. It is very handy to be able to carry buckets in one hand, and open latches with the other, without having to worry about a flash-light. I’ll be interested to see how long it goes on three AAA batteries, and will have to get some more rechargeables in that size. Updated: To point to correct item.
