This isn’t a post about Office 12, but thought many of you might be interested in this. Just saw this article on Digg, that details out how to participate in the Windows Live Mail beta. I just did it, so it still works as of 12/31/2005 at 6:14pm EST.
Basically gives Hotmail and MSN accounts plenty of Outlook like features, as well as some of the new Web2.0 stuff like drag and drop user interface features.

Big thanks to Forever Geek for this post alerting me to the possibility of tracking packages using an RSS feed. This works just great for people like me with their heads buried too far in their Bloglines account to bother themselves with trying to maintain status of shipped packages for purchases on eBay.
This site lets your track packages from UPS, FedEx, USPS and soon to offer DHL.

That title is obviously meant more for me. It’s been quite some time since I last posted. Guess I’ve gotten caught up in the holidays and taking a little bit of a break from my “real” job. Christmas was really good with the family. Probably the best Christmas we’ve had as a family. Kids have been great and seem to really like and appreciate the gifts they received.
That was a challenge for me this year. I recently went through my son’s closet and threw away a bunch of toys that were purchased for him in the past year or two. Lot’s of crap. This year I wanted to try and stick with classic toys that hopefully wouldn’t grow as old so quick. Santa brought him a new NFL regulation size football, just like the Colts play with, a new Nike basketball, and a Nerf dart gun with pseudo-laser sites. The rest of his Christmas stash was rounded out with Legos, G.I.Joe’s new Sigma Six force, some Hot Wheels playsets and a couple of Xbox games.
My daughter was classic too. Baby dolls, Little Tikes kitchen stuff and other girly things. The two of them also shared some movies together.
I’ll be back into the swing of things shortly. Looking forward to a New Year with everyone!
