blah, blah, blog

The term BLOG is a portmanteau, or, in other words, a blend of the words web and log. A blog is a user-generated website where entries are made in journal style and displayed in a reverse chronological order. Blogs often provide commentary or news on a particular subject, such as food, politics, or local news; some function as more personal online diaries (as this one). A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic.

This CRAZY Gmail

OK, so I'm at work trying to check my mail on the Mac using Netscape. What's up with this? Gmail locks up Netscape EVERY time. I'm beginning to think the "G" doesn't stand for Google after all. Maybe, just maybe it stands for GATES!

Last Friday I emailed my hubby a file from work. No, I wasn't actually "working" (on the clock) or anything – Just in the office doing some other stuff. I hit SEND and left the room. I was gone about 4 hours. I came back, shut down my laptop and went home.

To my SHOCK, when he checked his mail that night at home, some how, some way, Gmail had sent the email EIGHT TIMES!!! The emails were spaced apart some only a few minutes, some over an hour – 8 of them over the course of a 4-hour period. I wasn't even in my office during that time and neither was anyone else. How could this happen I asked myself?

And then, I was HORRIFIED to think that some of you might have received multiple emails from me at times. You probably think I'm an idiot. Well, I might be, but I'm not the only one.

I'm beginning to think that Gmail is related in some way to Microsoft. I know they are still working the bugs out – obviously, but come on… EIGHT repetitive emails when I only hit send once?!? Give me a break!
