Is there a compelling reason to download the Windows app over just using the Web app? Aside from the fact that their web server is getting hammered right now...

Melanie, for comparison sake, could you clarify what kind of fees and storage limit kicks in after the first 20,000?

asshats. love it

yup, I think they're slammed

Web site unavailable, but I'm downloading the app for my Android phone now!

Thanks, jediqr7p. I'll give it whirl! Any experience with Timeriffic?

Agreed.

I don't have a land line, so need to be able to send or receive calls on my cell in an emergency. I like the idea of prolonging my battery life, but will I still be able to send and receive calls easily while my phone is in a sleep mode with an app like Deep Sleep?

Great tip! I do a lot of writing for work and was thinking reading aloud would be annoying to my co-workers.

Yeah, cereal boxes and food boxes are great for wrapping gifts! Especially clothing, which can be hard to wrap without a box. I used an empty cake mix box to wrap a kid's gift. It was quite funny to see how confused the child was when he pulled the paper off and revealed a cake mix box. I also used an empty tampon box…

Katana, thanks for your reply. Regarding Trello, I saw a Lifehacker mention the iphone app is crappy, but in the Google Play store the app gets good reviews for Android. Curious to know if you have tried the Android app?

Just noticed Trello is from FogCreek software. Love that Joel Spolsky fellow from there.

I'm very anxious to see what Wunderlist2 has in store when it roles out. I currently use Workflowy, but it's a little too simple for me. I'm interested to see responses to your question since I've never heard of Trello before.

I just made some DIY photo canvases for gifts over the weekend. They were easy, inexpensive and they turned out great. I'm keeping one for myself :)

Have an overripe banana? Mush it up in a pot with some oatmeal and water. It makes oatmeal deliciously sweet with any added sugar. Throw some walnuts on top for added protein.

Unless my floors are really dirty I usually don't bother vacuuming if I'm having guests over. First, it's an evening gathering it's dark out and specs of dirt are harder to spot. Second, I'm going to have to vacuum crumbs and tracked in dirt after everyone leaves anyway.

Agreed! Maybe clean a room in 15 minutes, but I could never accomplish all of this in just 15 minutes.

I still manage to find the goodies at the back of the pantry. The perils of working from home... I sought out the package of oreos and finished them off! I need to keep them more than 20 seconds away; as in leave them at the store and don't bring them home in the first place.

So glad you said that. The one I had my eye on is a Cheetah. Thanks!

Here's the recipe I follow. By the way, EVERY recipe I've tried on this site has been a success in my kitchen.
