Brainlitter - Inside the mind of Sean Wallbridge

We’ve had a number of calls in the last week (probably 4, would swear it is the same woman even).  After yelling at her a few times and/or being outright mean and cruel (she doesn’t get sympathy…), tonight I thought I’d play along and record it. I missed the beginning as I was on the …

Ok, maybe not scientific. But by my calculations, I have sent over 216,000 emails over the last 8 years (many with glorious colour), with just about all of them having a disclaimer on it that was complete nonsense and gibberish (by the way, I can’t take credit for writing it, nor will I, but I …

What can I say… I just think this is neat/fun. All about QR Codes (they’ve been around much longer than you think!) – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code Make your own… http://www.qrstuff.com This is my favourite iPhone app for them – http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/qrafter-the-ultimate-qr-code/id416098700 The one on the left directs folks to our website at the URL https://www.itgroove.net/qrcode Here’s a couple …

Here’s a thread I had recently with a customer about why/how some of their emails weren’t getting to the intended recipient. Unfortunately, no matter what we did, the upstream email recipient’s (the receiver) system was rejecting the message – worse still it wasn’t even telling anyone it was rejecting it (oh thanks!)

The next version (or renaming) of BPOS, the Microsoft Online Business Suite (SharePoint, Exchange, OCS which is now Lync) is looking pretty shiny. Looks to hit in early 2011 and also encouraging, it looks like Canada won’t be the forgotten stepchild that gets the products and services 6 months later this time.   Details This …

Ok, this isn’t for everybody. A third of you have sworn never to sign up for Facebook, a third of you are grumbling about getting off of Facebook (though I don’t see it 😉 and a third of you will be all over this…   But, the Facebook Social Connector for Outlook is out as …

Whew, look at that. 4 posts in June and this is the first for July. Tsk tsk… What can I say? It’s summer, we took a family work/play trip to Bermuda and then celebrated our 15th Wedding Anniversary by taking a cruise to Alaska. Pile in-between both of those, lots of work, some gigs and …
