Or, how to migrate your Outlook 2003 mailbox, contacts and calendar items to Mac OS X.
1. Do yourself a favor, spent $10, save your self hours and hours of extra work, and buy Little Machine’s Outlook-to-Mac (O2M). It will convert your outlook profile/.PST to Mac friendly standards perfectly. Download and install.
2. From you PC with your Outlook 2003 profile open, run O2M and follow the prompts, asking you nicely to place a check mark next which folders you want to convert. YES. This does include sub-folders, sent items, drafts, etc. You can also select your contacts and you calendar for conversion as well.
3. Copy the folders created by O2M to a thumb drive or maybe a CD and then copy them on to your Mac OS X machine.
4. From your Mac you can now go through each app, mail, address book and ical, and import your stuff. File > Import > Mailboxes, vCards or iCal file.
Twistori presents a flow of common emotions that people twit about on Twitter, pulled via Summerize. What is funny is how removed the viewer is from an emotion that started so intimately.
From a usability standpoint, well any standpoint for that matter, treating links as if they were footnotes makes absolutely no sense. It defeats the whole point.
Dates and locations for collections in the Chicago area can be found on the IEPA website link, under “web resources,” below. - ChicagoRecycling.org
It was hard enough finding that tiny bit of info on their website, let alone then having to sort through a list of links at the bottom of the page to find the collection dates. What could reasoning for not placing the link right there baffles me.
Making your website visitors work harder than they have to is moronic.
I am pretty good at remembering to quiet my mobile whenever I go to a movie or any where else I need my phone silenced. What I am not good at is remembering to turn the ringer back on.
I’d love the profiles on my Blackberry to be more dynamic, so when I am switching between them, the BB could ask me how long I would like to stay on that profile for. Say, 2 hours for a movie. Then after those 2 hours are up, it switches back to the ‘Normal’ profile.
Something we all feel we’re plagued with at times…
“If you focus on what’s going wrong in your life—especially if you see it as ‘bad luck’ you can do nothing about—it will seem blacker and more malevolent. In a short time, you’ll become so convinced that everything is against you that you’ll notice more and more instances where this appears to be true. As a result, you will almost certainly stop trying, convinced that nothing you can do will improve your prospects.”
Fantastic clip from Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares where chef Gordon Ramsay visits failing Indian restaurant, The Curry Lounge.
Why is it failing?
With 100+ pick-n-mix items on the menu, the owner is afraid he’ll not be able to please everyone. By offering something for everyone, even chips at an Indian restaurant, they end up with something mediocre.
They compromise their authenticity.
Just an FYI if you ever find yourself in Brighton, UK, my favorite Indian restaurant: Memories of India.
Um… Yeah… So early this morning, around 4-5am, I woke up feeling nausious, sick to my stomach, my hold body shaking. I thought it was me, symptoms of insomnia I’ve felt in the past.

About Me
"Raffy is a bit of an enigma...", so goes the report card from my Sophomore year in High School.
Hello. I'm Raffy, just another oxygen thief living in Chicago.
Not much has changed since High School, spending my time on what I enjoy, (food, travel, music, art & photography, entrepreneurship, design, hacking) and ignoring the rest. You may read a more thorough introduction if you'd like.
