We’re packed! I decided at the last momemt, or nearly so, to take my computer bag as well as the backpack. The backpack seemed like it would hold everything, but… It’s going to be great for walking around in Europe, but there was no way it was going to hold everything for walking around AND everything for the flight over and back. Speaking of flights, the main flight is ten hours long. Leaves around 2:30pm our time and gets in just after midnight our time. But that will be 9-something AM in Frankfurt. So we’re trying to figure out how we’ll sleep. I’m guessing tomorrow (Wed) is going to be a LONG day. We have about four hours in the Frankfurt airport. Maybe we’ll nap in shifts!
Well, we’re off! We’re excited!
(Oh, a side note about making comments to the blog. The first time you make a comment, it comes to me for approval. After that, your comments go straight in. This is for SPAM control. That’s also why you have to type the two words in the form at the bottom. And if you put more than one link in your post, WordPress, the blogging software, will kick it back. Apparently SPAM-bots (lovely image) are a real problem.)
I love gmail because you can save everything. I use it for my email lists where I get hundreds of emails a day. I have one account that has over 20,000 emails saved on it. By separating it from my regular email, I am able to only view it when I have time and I can search it for emails on a particular topic. Basically, it is a good research tool.
If the trickle down theory applies to that cute little notebook, I’d like to put my hat in the ring. I could use it to work from home and on the, now rare, times I travel.
This blog is a great idea. And its the first time I’ve read a blog where I actually know the person writing it. What does it mean when it says pinging is not currently allowed?
I have no idea what it means when it says pinging is not allowed. Technically a ping is a message sent to verify an Internet address. I think in the blogsphere, it means something else because I sometime see the term pingback used. Maybe Andrew knows.
