Invitation Time »

Ooo, ooo! I can finally say that I've got an invitation to hand out to GMail. If there's actually anyone out there who still wants one and doesn't have one, let me know. First come, first served. First name, last name and email required. If you don't want that info to show up on the page, email me directly.

Webmail Madness »

I don't know why I even bother signing up for webmail accounts. I have at least one at Excite, GMail, MyWay, Netscape, Hotmail and Yahoo! I can't imagine the last time I received anything useful at any of these accounts.

So just now, I went digging through the Yahoo! options to see if spam filtering was on. It was. Yet I had 650 emails in the last month that were spam. I noticed that I didn't have a folder named "Bulk", so I thought maybe it couldn't find anywhere to put it, and it wasn't working. I tried to create it. Nope. That's a reserved name. So apparently you can delete the folder - or exist without it - but you aren't allowed to create it. Nice.
