Google Voice Is Calling

Posted by Paige on Jul 25, 2009 in Technology

google-voiceLast year a friend told me about this neat application called Grand Central that gave you a centralized phone number which, when called, would ring to any phone number(s) that you wanted. When I heard about this I immediately went to sign-up. Unfortunately at that point Grand Central was defunct. However, Google had taken it over and there was a post stating it was coming soon and I could sign-up to be notified when it was ready. Of course I did.

RSSToday was funny (peculiar, not haha). Yesterday when I started thinking about posting my top Google tips I knew that I wanted today’s post to be about Google Reader (a tool I heavily rely on). Then today I was showing my site to my husband and three teachers. Each of them asked “what is that little thing in the coffee cup?” (BTW, a HUGE thank you to the maker of this theme, Edward Caissie for doing so much to make my cute little icon work!).

Technology Challenges

Posted by Paige on Jul 21, 2009 in Rants

If you have visited my site in the last few days you may have noticed a couple of things: 1. no new posts and 2. odd & continual design changes, or perhaps 3. you weren’t even able to access the site. If any of the those sounds right, I apologize. Continue reading
