Yahoo! Mail is SLOW

Okay, what is going on with Yahoo! Mail the past couple of days? Yahoo! Mail is where I get my main email, and I use it regularly to the tune of checking it 5 times/hour. Zero (yes, that's 0) complaints over the past year, until yesterday and today.

Yesterday I noticed that when deleting emails they didn't go away. Later I realized that they did get deleted but only disappeared after a refresh or two. Also, last night my wife asked me why I didn't respond to any of her emails. The weird thing is we both use Yahoo! for email and she was receiving my mails. I finally received hers about 10 hours after they were sent!

Same problem today, so I decided to do a little testing. I have a domain name account that forwards my emails to yahoo. So first I sent an email from Yahoo to both my domain name account and directly back to yahoo. They didn't show up for at least an hour, and they both were received at nearly the same time. So my guess was either the outbound Yahoo or the retrieval of new messages from the server (since my domain account showed up at the same time).

Then I see that messages that I sent to my wife are being received. We must be on two different server clusters or something, which is really odd considering we work less than a mile apart.

So what is going on? Where is my gmail account when I need one? Help me google!!!!

BStats - stats.blogger.com

Found a stats tracker for my blogger sites. Very nice and simple to use. Maybe I shouldn't even talk about it, because the site says you must have blogspot plus to use it. Well it let me in without a plus membership, so we'll see how long this lasts :-)

If anyone else is interested, it is at stats.blogger.com. By the looks of it, I wouldn't be surprised if this is made public very soon on the blogger site.

Email Posting Rocks!

Oh man, this is awesome! We can finally email post on Blogger?!?! The only thing missing now is my gmail membership and trackback! This rocks.



Update:I forgot about Yahoo! mail appending this stupid spam message. Now I really want gmail!!!! Not only that, but they don't even close their font tags...

End of Haloscan?

Well, with the new comments system added to Blogger, does this mean the end of Haloscan? All that's missing on my precious little blogger now is trackback. So, oh holy masters of Blogger, when will trackback be enabled???

JAlbum source

Found the source for JAlbum. I'm very happy about this, because I want to add a few features of my own (like emailing a new gallery notification).

To follow up my previous post. Perhaps I should just use ImageMagick:
