Introducing Gmail Custom Time

Anybody else see this great new feature in Gmail? I’ve already used it a couple of times. I forgot my brother’s birthday, so I just used this and sent him a Happy Birthday email and marked it so as the date was the day before his birthday.

If you haven’t studied up on this yet, make sure you do so and take advantage of it. But don’t get carried away, like they say in the introduction, you only get to use it ten times in a year.

Cook Accused Of Spitting On Steelers Fan’s Burger

Somehow, I suspect this is not unusual behavior for Seahawks fans. It seems that a Steelers fan was in PORT ORCHARD, Wash. with his family and the went to a local eating establishment. Apparently the cook was a Seahawks fan who still had a mad on about the Steelers crushing Seattle in Super Bowl XL and didn’t like the Steelers apparel worn by the Black ‘n Gold fan. So, displaying true Seahawks class, the moron spit on the guy’s burger when he was preparing it.

Nice PR Seattle….

Adobe Photoshop Express

You may have already heard of this, but Adobe has just launched Adobe Photoshop Express.

It’s supposed to be some of the most frequently used features of Adobe Photoshop available for use on the web anytime for FREE. It works in your web browser as long as you have the Flash 9 Player, so you can work on any platform.

I just joined and am in the process of uploading some photos I shot at church on Easter. Once they are uploaded, I’ll let you know how it actually works, and how it compares to my usual editing process - which is Photoshop Elements (either PE2 or PE5).

Anyone else having trouble with Gmail today?

My gmail has been terrible today. I’ve been able to access it for about a total of 10 minutes. The rest of the time I get the following message:

Temporary Error (502)

We’re sorry, but your Gmail account is currently experiencing errors. You won’t be able to use your account while these errors last, but don’t worry, your account data and messages are safe. Our engineers are working to resolve this issue.

Please try accessing your account again in a few minutes.

I’m not having any trouble accessing my oyleractionphotos.com email, which is run thru Google Apps (and gmail), so it’s kind of weird.
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this today.
