Tracking Down Great Software For You!

Most of the people that I know don’t have just one GMail account because we need one for friends, family, spam, subscriptions, orders, and I am sure the list continues on and on, right? I actually have 8 different GMail accounts along with the multiple email addresses that we have Google for hosting the CyberNet News email. It would be extremely tedious to check all of those email addresses by logging in and logging out manually, but the GMail Manager Firefox extension does all of the work for you.

Several of you have probably already heard about it but the newest version that was just released a few weeks ago has some great features. For starters, it now supports the GMail hosted accounts which means it can check your Website’s emails as well. You’ll also find that it is easy to put all of your accounts on more than one computer with the nifty import/export setting that was added.

Now I would be all set if there was a way to organize the list of accounts. I think I can live without that feature since it saves me so much time!

I’ll never forget my first time in Neighborhood’s Harajuku shop (The Filth and the Fury). They had an amazingly ornate Hitler tea set where you could pour right out of the Führer’s elongated nose.

This interview with the founder of Neighborhood is a look into what once was, what’s still hanging on, but not necessarily where anything’s going.

Via Naked Tokyo’s cool new blog Naked Play. The biggest bright spot about economic turmoil could be that the tired luxury brands on Omotesando close shop, split town, and we can turn the Prada building into a skate park.

Familiar with Johnny Appleseed? He who traipsed ’round the country with a sack ‘o seeds on his shoulder, planting trees hither and yon leaving apple orchards blooming in his wake? Gig. U is similar, only it’s a project that aims to plant Gigabit networks in 29 collegiate communities to facilitate research, attract start-ups, and stimulate local economies. The plan is just getting underway, and the schools in question — including Virginia Tech, the University of Hawaii, and the University of Alaska — are asking private telcos and companies to help make their high-speed dreams a reality. In addition to benefiting the immediate areas, Gig. U sees these swift new networks functioning as hubs in a faster nationwide broadband system. The colleges claim that construction of these new information superhighways won’t start for several years, so it’ll be some time before they can help elevate us from our current state of broadband mediocrity. Chop, chop, guys.

Gig. U hopes to bring Gigabit networks and straight cash, homey, to university communities originally appeared on Engadget on Wed, 27 Jul 2011 23:07:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Hi guys (and gals!)! We’ve been getting emails over the last month or so asking what we’ve been up to since we cut back our writing schedule. Now that life has calmed down (a little), we thought we’d share just what it is that’s filling our time these days.

Before we get into that, we wanted to thank you for your patience and understanding with our recent transition. As always, we appreciate your support, and your readership! Thank you for taking the time to read and comment, and send in tips, they are always appreciated!

Aside from mourning over the Cubs losing, here’s what we’ve been up to. At the end of August, Ryan accepted a position as a “Deployment Specialist” with a Chicago-based company. The organization is located in the “Chicago Loop” (for those of you unfamiliar, it’s just the name for the business district in the City). This meant we either had to move closer to the city to reduce commute time, or relocate to the city. We’re not really city dwellers so we packed up and moved about an hour Southeast of where we were living to a Western suburb of Chicago. Ryan takes the train into the city everyday and is enjoying his job of managing and deploying websites.

As for myself, I accepted a position as a Teacher/Technology Integration Specialist at an elementary school in the area. I teach 5th grade math, kindergarten-4th grade computer classes, and I manage the school website and help teachers integrate technology into their classrooms. So far I am loving the job because it combines two things I am passionate about, teaching and technology.

We do have to say that it has been quite the adjustment to take a few steps back from CyberNet, and we do miss it! We haven’t had nearly as much interaction with our readers lately which is one of the things we enjoy most. To help with the interaction, we’ve got a question for you. Even if you’ve never commented before, feel free to answer!

Reader Question…

Now we’d like to turn and ask you guys what you’ve been up to! In the past, we haven’t really asked what you do during the day, so feel free to let us know what profession you’re in and even the name of the company, if you’d like! If you’re a student, tell us what you are studying and where.
