I just got a new blackberry pearl for work. So far I really like it. It is amazing that you can type with such a small keyboard.
I’m writing this with my phone to practice typing with this little keyboard.
Maybe I’ll start to use twitter for more practice. Does anyone know of a good way to tweet from a blackberry?

If you find yourself falling behind in getting all of your emails read, like I have in the past week, you may find it useful to put the following in your Gmail search:
is:unread in:inbox
This will filter your messages to just those that are unread and in your inbox. Pretty cool. This help a lot for me because I have a lot of filters on my mail that mark some mailing list emails as ‘read’ and put others under different labels without marking them as read.

I just read this on Max M’s blog as I’ve been researching how to migrate a Plone 2.5 site to Plone 3. I thought this was way too good not to share.
“There is one thing I have learned through the years. Users do not do what they should. They do what they can. And if they can upload a 12 MB bmp image, they will. So I expect this to be a normal use case on many sites.”
This statement really supports the need for data validation and good UI design.
