Year End Lists

December 23rd, 2007 No Comments

At the end of every year, the hordes of people who know things better than you do come out with their top ten lists. Here at The Hole, the best thing that we can come up with is a list of the most popular posts since I installed the Popularity Contest plugin in October. This rates each post on various criteria, but basically it shows which posts have been seen more than others.

  1. Blog Action Day
  2. Here comes $100 oil, and $3 gasoline?
  3. Google Adds IMAP Support To GMail
  4. Brave New World
  5. The Pied Piper of Oakland
  6. Skylark Apartments
  7. Global Warming is a Crock
  8. Pimpin for Birthday Boy’s School
  9. Halloween
  10. The BlogRush Cut

Next year, we should be able to have a better list, as we have just installed the PostRatings plugin. Go ahead and give those posts a rating. It’s like instant, anonymous feedback, and next year, we’ll have a top ten list of the best rated posts.

Google Adds IMAP Support To GMail

October 24th, 2007 No Comments

Holy Cow! I just saw that Google Adds IMAP Support To GMail. We use Google Apps for Domains here at “The Hole,” and now that I have discovered it, I do not see why more people and companies do not take advantage of it. Like all things, it is true that this isn’t the best thing for all people and companies, but taking 4 gigs of email off your home computer and putting it on Google’s redundant servers for the price of nothing sounds like a no brainer.

I am using this for most of my domains, although they wouldn’t let me sign up for my NaNoWriMo domain. I’m not sure why. I picked Pen Is Mightier.Info and they wouldn’t let me use Google Apps for Domains. Strangely enough they let me use the domain for a Blogger redirect.

The Pie Hole recommends Google Apps for Domains.
