43 Folders Series: Inbox Zero

This should be required reading with getting an email account. Part of the Internet Drivers license test. I heavily use filters (known as rules to Outlook users), should be better than I am about not always checking my email and instead scheduling dashes, but I do know how to use the delete key :). Read!

I’m on Microsoft.com!

They let employees sign this contract so they can use our names in code samples, sample databases, etc. In return we get to be famous :). In a weird geeky sort of way.
