Look at me talking to myself! VOIP and fax SUCCESS! I am so happy getting back all my office functionality that I haven't had in over two years since I had to give up cable internet.

So, I'm back on my iBook. My G4 magically came back o when I randomly pressed the power button as I passed by on Sunday.

Whee! glorious speed! it was wonderful! I downloaded ahems, I caught up on a few places I couldn't go to here, ...and I absolutely did not back up any bookmarks that I could have used here.

Then this morning came. Dead again, (only without Emma Thompson.)

Random stabbing of the power button until I get the replacement, but I am a patient and determined button stabber.

Stab............stab........stab........

Behold the manipulative power of the inconsistent reward.

As soon an I can get the G5 packaged up it's heading your way. I believe the box for it is up in the rafters of the garage, that's been the hold up. I know at least one of the boxes for my Intel Mac Pros is up there, so it may come in that.

Cool, ND.

Hope my post didn't seem like I was pushing anything except the power button.

Stab....stab....stab...

Get Free Wi-Fi at FedEx Office Starting Today

Starting today, FedEx Office (formerly Kinko's) is offering free Wi-Fi service at over 50% of its locations. The remaining locations will offer free Wi-Fi by the end of the month.

Historically FedEx offered Wi-Fi access through AT&T with a tiered payment plan (daily and subscriber rates). As of today the AT&T service is free and unlimited at the majority of FedEx Office locations.

About 5 years too late for me, but glad they are finally doing it.

Cellphone concept charges itself from body heat while in your pocket

It's also very beautiful - I love the copper edging.

Keeping a phone charged can be a pain, especially at the end of the day when you're out of the house and dealing with a sliver of battery life. If only a phone could stay charged up all day without you ever having to think about it.

That's the idea behind the Nokia E-Cu concept, a slim phone that uses an integrated thermogenerator that converts heat into energy. That means it could get a slight charge while sitting in your pocket against your leg and an even bigger charge while placed on top of a radiator.

Just how realistic is this? Probably not so realistic that you'll see this in stores next year, but I don't think it's so out of the realm of possibility that we'll never see something like this implemented. At least I hope so, as there are few things more annoying than being out and about with a dead cellphone.

Huh. Tells me how below average my cell use is. I have to carry a phone about four days before it needs charging.

Yeah, I charge my current phone every three or four days. When I have a phone that needs daily charging I know it's time to get a new battery.
