Dopplr: Closing a gap after five years. Finally!
4. November 2007 - 11:48 — Oliver
Apart from allowing you to keep track of your friends' and colleagues' contact information, there was a service that I have been missing ever since SixDegrees was closed down: Let's call it "travel tracking". Travel tracking allowed you to put your travel itinerary on the site, and you could then see which of your contacts would be in the town of your destination at the same time as you. Great for meeting up and having a drink.

Membership is presently by invite only, but if you would like one, just drop me a line, or head over to InviteShare.
Why I don't use Hotmail
21. June 2007 - 4:34 — OliverI'm an avid user of Google Apps and not afraid to admit it. That goes for mail and calendaring, as well as a few other goodies that come straight out of the box. Admittedly it's not perfect, but there you go. But once in a while I will head back to Hotmail to see how Microsoft is doing in the web-base mail field.
Doesn't anyone care about privacy anymore?
8. June 2007 - 7:13 — OliverI just came across this example of how to store information in Google calendar from the blog at lifehacker.com.
Secure and Zip your Email Attachments
22. May 2007 - 4:33 — OliverPKWare (the makers of WinZip) are giving away free licenses for SecureZIP. This allows you not only to ZIP up files but also to encrypt and sign them using industry-standard encryption methods. What is even better is that this integrates seamlessly into Microsoft Outlook and allows you to zip up (and/or encrypt) attachments by default. That has the potential of seriously reducing the size of the mails you send, and receive (provided you can persuade enough people to install it!).
These are the rules!
