Google Threatens To Kill Users
I’m waiting to enroll in gHealth – Google Health Insurance. In the meantime, let’s see what else the big G is up to.
Google Gmail Slows Down My Computer
I use Google Gmail, but not as a main email account. I only use it when I need to supply an email address for something where I feel there is a risk of betrayal from the person receiving it. I keep my real email addresses close to my chest.
It behooves me how my real email address gets around, but I have an idea. One possible place is when making blog comments. I think some of those blog owners don’t give a rat’s ass and they sell them for fun and profit. People, if you make blog comments, it would be wise not to use your real addy. Ok, I’m getting off topic.
I work on my computer all the ding dong day. I know Windows has tons of shit running in the back ground, but there are times when it really slows down – sorta like when McAfee antivirus is updating, but it’s not.
When you run Gmail, you have the option to run the the Gmail notifier in the background and send the blue envelope icon to the status bar in the lower right corner of your screen.
TIP: Gmail is not a mission-critical application for me so when my computer starts to runs like a slug for no apparent reason, I right-click on the blue Gmail icon and click Exit and I immediately get an increase of speed. BAMM, Bob’s your uncle.
