This is an everyone problem. The worst offender is my iPhone. I keep alerts off by default, and I only turn on a few (for texts and phone calls). What I like instead is the little number badge that changes when you miss something. It's much quieter!

I have one dream for my calendar app, and as far as I know, there is no app that does this. I want a calendar app for Mac that interacts with Google (like all of them do) and allows me to set the end of the day for some time past midnight. I go to a lot of events that end past midnight, and it always drives me crazy…

@longbourne: I know, right?!

@Seif Sallam: Evernote isn't write only. You can do voice notes, too. True story.

I'm 40, and I have a doctorate, so I'm supposed to be smart, right? This weekend, a close friend pointed out that I kept using the word "heighth," which is NOT, in fact, a word. Seeing it written, I know it's not something I ever write out, but I sure have been saying it my entire life. Hey, better late than never,…

When I search for "abbyladybug" (the main internet name I've used for years), the first results that come up are for a wikyblog site I created with an ex-boyfriend in about 2004 and never used. That seems unhelpful! Google gets more useful things like my blog and Flickr page.

Mediafire and Divshare are really nice.

Off topic, but I love that picture, and I know exactly where in New York it is. Cool!

Also unable to download. It says "thanks for downloading" but there's no file to be found.

Cross-hair?!! What's that?!!

I HATE the new Word and have recently switched to OpenOffice just because I don't get so mad at it. I miss Word 2003. I hate that WordPerfect wasn't more popular. That was always my fave.

This is so not important, but in your example, you spelled fubar with two o's instead of a u. Doesn't really work that way if you know what it means!

It's STEVE!!! I know him. COOLIO! J.P. (Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston), repreZENT!! :P

Eric, Thanks for the great apps and for being so responsive to feedback... so very quickly!! Ask, and I did receieve!

This thread is getting a little unwieldy, but let me second the idea of transferring programs that I legally own from laptop to desktop (or vicky verky) when I've lost the registration materials. Brilliant idea of a problem to solve.

I kind of started a discussion about this on Ask Metafilter already, but I'd love more tips for speeding up text messaging and cell phone use. I find that oftentimes, the UI for cell phones isn't very efficient, and I'd love more tips about how to speed up the use of the phone in any way possible.

I dig Grazr.

I feel like if I had to use Wikipedia to know what it meant, and I'm one of the nerdier people I know, then to try and explain what the shirt meant over and over and over would get tedious. I mean, this isn't a gaming site. Sure, there's overlap, but if its origin is gaming, then why have it on a Lifehacker shirt?

Productively lazy is kinda fun. I guess I thought it was supposed to be more of a Lifehacker thing than just cool... I, of course, liked mine the best!

It's not perfect, but it was better than anything else I found. I think it's a wiki situation, with people updating as they go. It seems like it would be really easy to do a mashup... you know, if you knew what you were doing!
