I had a co-worker who enabled IMAP in Gmail and Outlook which allowed him to copy messages from within Outlook to Gmail.

Love the Android app articles but the Windows apps seem to have disappeared. Lately I've been doing more research on TV streaming options (aka cutting the cord) and cell phone plans so more on that would be appreciated. Diigo'd the set-top-box post…

You could blow everybody's mind and bring in your own balloons every day.

182 and only 48 are games. Color me surprised on both fronts.

Wow, I love the screen labels along the bottom. Actually there's a lot to like but I haven't seen screen labels before.

It's worth mentioning that you need to enable background images in gCal Labs, save, then select the gCal background near the bottom of the settings.

Wifi at home, wifi at work, AT&T hotspots throughout town. I would have guessed 20MB/mo but over the last 6 months it's actually closer to 60MB/mo.

Heimlich maneuver!

You could use something like Tasker or AutomateIt to automatically turn airplane on when it detects your work's wifi.

Why doesn't the widget time match the notification time? Same for the linked "variant".

Learned this trick from my daughter... store the tissue box on its side. If the box is still full, the tissues stay in place. When it gets low, the stack will fall to the side (now the bottom) but the distance from the top of the stack to the opening is less than the length of a tissue so they never fall back in.

This! I kept double-checking the title of this article because the charts don't jive at all.

I'm in this boat. With Widgetsoid I created a widget that controls data, volume and has a battery monitor, plus it blends well with the rest of my desktop.

Sorry Win7.

Just the other day I accidentally discovered a trick for renaming multiple files. [F2] to rename the first file (don't hit [Enter]), then [Tab] to move to the next file in file-rename-mode. If you're renaming 30 files, write a script but if you have 5 to rename this saves a lot of [F2], [Enter], [arrow], [F2],…

I had the same problem. Rather disappointing. However, I called Google and they replaced it no problem.

Mat Honan for failing to backup his computer. My retired parents backup their computer. My retired parents! But technology "expert" Mat Honan? Nope.

Or for the same money, get a HTC EVO V 4G (not yelling, that's its name) off contract from Virgin. 1.2 GHz dual core, 1GB RAM, 8GB storage, 4" screen, Android 4.0. In other words about 4x processor, 4x memory, expandable storage, 12% more screen and ICS.

I'd also add Mat Honan's complete inability to backup his data. My parents backup their data! My parents! Mat Honan, technology "expert"? Nope.
