So we though Siri was pointless. See it in action now.

So I got a fair bit of feedback from my last featured article on Boomerang for Gmail. It seems my post was a little too technical. I perhaps misjudged my subscribers. In future I will restrict those articles to the Technology Blog. (Sorry!)
In other news I am now working from a new office in the fabulous Woodend. The office is very spacious and I am happy to welcome you to pop in if you need a desk, wifi or a cuppa for a few hours. You can even have a go at drawing something on our new 18sqm whiteboard wall. I promise good company and ‘non-techie’ chat. We work completely flexi hours so it might be best to drop me a tweet or an email before hand to make sure somebody is in the office.
Here is a nice simple video that explains the cookie law (and how stupid it is) in under 3 minutes.
I am a die hard Gmail fan. Google Apps is the power behind my business. I do not struggle with Outlook crashing or taking 10 minutes to start up. I can access my emails, contacts, calendars and documents from anywhere with an internet connection. If you had not guessed – I love it!
I try my best to be inbox zero (see Managing Your Inbox). However there are times I get an email and think ‘I wish I received that tomorrow morning when I had time to deal with it’. I am sure you feel the same. Well there is an amazing tool called Boomerang. This lets you select an email and ask it to disappear but come back in to your inbox in 2 hours, tomorrow, next week or anytime you specify. Check out this video clip for more information.
If you use Gmail then you have to install this add-on!
Don’t worry if you are still using the frustratingly slow and archaic Outlook. There is hope – you could always switch to Google. Alternatively there is an Outlook plugin.
Now excuse me while I procrastinate some emails!
For you geeks out there one of my favourite scenes from The IT Crowd.
