An
acquaintance of mine happened to be looking for a conference call
provider. I’m quite interested in the subject of conference
calling as it relates to web conferencing, so when the topic came up
in conversation, I tuned in immediately. I was amazed to learn about a
company that provides free conference calls. You read it right …
free conference calls. I found this to be quite astounding. And

Link to Friends | Posted by Leo A. Notenboom
Most commonly with free e-mail services, people often aren't happy
with the e-mail addresses that are available. After a while they want
a new e-mail address that's "cooler" or more descriptive. Depending on
the e-mail service you're using, and how much effort you want to put
into things, changing your e-mail address can be either easy, or hard.
More likely it'll be somewhere in between.... [Continued]

I'd venture to say that all of us appreciate the ability to copy
and paste text. Without that function, we would have to retype content
that's already been created. What a waste that would be, eh? If you
copy and paste a bunch of content from various Web sites to send to
your friends, or for any other purpose, you've probably noticed that
pasting it into your e-mail client or word processor results in a...

Every day all of us encounter complicated things that we take for
granted. For example, if you own a car with an automatic transmission,
do you regularly think about how it works? Are you currently thinking
about the microprocessor that is allowing this content to be delivered
to you? These things are probably erased from our brain. We just use
what's around us and keep going on with our lives. This is fine, but

professional trucker, GPS tracking lets big daddy (or big brother)
know exactly where you are at any moment. GPS tracking systems can

Here's a great idea! Let's make a law that says you can't send
commercial e-mail to domains that have wireless messaging devices on
the other end. So you can't send commercial e-mail to the address of a
cellphone or pager or the like. So far, so good - great law - and in
fact it goes into effect on October 18th as one of the mandates of
CAN-SPAM. Now, to make sure that nobody accidentally... [Continued]
