I have Agendus on my Clie. It's not free, but I like it a lot.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That looks interesting, Jessica.
Way back when, with the first Clie, Intellisync synched my PDA with my desktop and with my Yahoo contacts. Is that, or an analog still possible, anyone know?

Why would I be getting a timeout error when trying to visit salon.com from home? This has been going on for a couple of days now. My service is through RCN. Should I just call them to complain?

Jon B., open a command window (Start > Run > [type cmd]) and type the word ping in the black box that opens (sorry if I'm talking below your technical level). You should see something like this:
Reply from 206.80.4.40: bytes=32 time=83ms TTL=240
If not, please post what you see.
Edit: I'm assuming you're on a Windows machine here. If it's anything besides a Windows or Linux machine I can't help.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Jon, are you using any kind of ad blocker or proxy? I've found that they occasionally interfere with the various startup ads Salon uses.

I assume you mean type "ping www.salon.com"
I tried that yesterday. I get "request timed out". Specifically:

Not that I know of. It's not working with any browser, and not on either of my 'puters, including my DAW which has almost nothing on it other than Pro Tools!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Jon, have you tride traceroute (or whatever it is in Windows/DOS)?

Well, it looks like the URL is resolving properly so it's not a DNS issue but apparently there's no connectivity to the host. Since it's not computer-specific, there must be a firewall/router issue somewhere along the way. tommyrot's traceroute will help diagnose that. Initially, I'd say try rebooting your modem/router/firewall and see if that clears up the issue.
