My leash, and the problems it causes.

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yes, I’ve been issued, although it may be only temporary, a Blackberry so I can be reached wherever I am. (Truthfully I’ve been issued one because if I have to support them, it’d help if I was familiar with using one!)

Anyway. the first lesson I learned, don’t keep it too close to my laptop when I’m using the wireless at home, there’s some serious interference! I went across the room to get my blackberry when it was vibrating a little bit ago, brought it back over to where I had the laptop and my wireless network disappeared. I put it back over on the bookshelf, and it came back. Coincidence? I think not.

The comment got stuck in the database with the wrong blogid, since the javascript rounded it 17 digits and…

    Geek News Central has a post about unsubscribing to a handful of feeds that are both partial feeds, and filled with Google Ads.
