I’ve been using Google hosted apps for a little over a year now and love it. All the power of Gmail just with the vanity of your domain name. Some of the features:
Email
Calendar
Docs and spreadsheets
Personalized start page
Google talk integration
Pop support
Mobile access to mail and calendar
There are various enterprise upgrades (at a $50per user per year fee) that can migrate your mail servers, larger mailbox size, resource scheduling and domain integration.
My one gripe is I wish that Google would support IMAP, but that would probably prohibit one of Gmail’s best features, email threading. :-/
With all these now expansions coming out, I think Blizzard is only going to shoot them selves in the foot. For an existing user, who has a main and a couple of alts, has the bar being raised again and again. With the new expansion Wrath you can now level to 80. I cant imagine this would be very enticing for a new user. First you buy the game $39.99 then the Burning Crusade expansion $39.99 and now Wrath (most likely) $39.99 = $120. And I cant imagine what the “/played” time would be. The best grinders can do 1-60 in 6 days of playtime. I have lost total motivation to take my main past my current lvl @ 66. 🙁 It would be interesting to see the new/current subscribers info.. I would be willing to wager that there is a decline.
If you have upgraded to WM6 on your dash you might have noticed, when you view video fullscreen, the video is turned 90 degrees (viewing a landscape video on you landscape screen in portrait)… OK WHY?
Well heres a fix:
Open your favorite registry editor
Add a new Key called “Rotation” under:
HKLM\System\GDI i.e.(HKLM\System\GDI\Rotaion)
Then add this Dword “LandscapeMode” and set the value to “0 ” (zero)
I was actually surprised how easily the I got through to Xbox tech support. From the time I picked up the phone to when they were sending me a shipping box was about 22 minutes for the hole call…. now just for the 4-6 weeks part 🙁
