SaneBox - Separates the Important from the Rest in Gmail

SaneBox - Email Sorting and Triage ServiceIf you really have to pray, pray for "mens sana in corpore sano" — a sane mind in a sturdy body. For, Juvenal argued, people don't know what to wish for: if they get it, it's rarely for their best.

›› You have a powerful project management that you use for simple to-do lists open next to Gmail all the time? Why not put the list right inside Gmail (and link from tasks to emails easily, too)? Here's how.


How to Remove the AOL Footer from Emails You Send in AIM Mail, AOL Mail and AOL

How much mileage do you get out of your camera? How, then, about footage? "Footage" — events captured in a moving picture camera — does indeed come from "foot", the measure of length: it's how many feet of tape you've used.
