A couple of years ago I was given an aliph jawbone bluetooth headset. It was really convenient for using the phone without having to hold your cell phone up to your ear. Unfortunately it was stolen and when I went to replace it I found that the only available from the company was the jawbone II. Now, initially I read about the Jawbone II and it sounded like a disappointment after the first one. But, went ahead and ordered and found my expectations were surpassed.

Postgrey and the power of Greylisting to fight Spam
Wow…. Let me just say that I have typically been inundated with junk mail on my primary address. It’s associated with this domain and has been hosted in an older sendmail setup for quite some time (not really by choice, but because that’s what was installed on the old vps.) I’m currently migrating to postfix which I’m a bit more familiar with and had used successfully to at least tag my junk mail as SPAM for sorting at home. Well, my older postfix system didn’t have too many options to add on and tweak and so this weekend I’ve invested some time in migrating the main mail server over to a newer postfix install with amavis and postgrey and a few other tools.

Case for Kindle 3 – Kindle Covers
The Kindle is a wonderful portable reading device from amazon.com. I have one and enjoy it greatly, however I was looking for a case to get to carry it in. Why a case? I feel it’s a bit conspicuous without a case and perhaps a bit more tempting for someone to just “pick up” if it’s laying out. In a case it might look more like a dayplanner or non-electronic gadget. I was also a bit concerned about carrying it in the rain, or getting dust, debris and dirt on it while carrying it out and about.

Kindle Buyers Remorse? Do I regret buying a Kindle?
For the record…. no. Not in the least. I bought a Kindle 3 in December and have been using it quite a bit since then. Of course, the first few weeks I used it an awful lot. (It was around the Christmas holidays of course.) I haven’t had as much time in the last month or two to just sit and read, but when I have it’s been better than having a book. Why?
It’s smaller, yet it holds my entire library.
Well, not technically my ENTIRE library yet, but it does hold quite a few of my books (a couple hundred.)
