I can't believe Mac laptops must go to sleep when you close the lid. There is a magnet in both pieces that when close enough, activate sleep mode. All you have to do to "deactivate" this feature is find where the magnet is, and put a piece of metal in between it when you close the lid. They warn that this could cause the laptop to overheat. Why didn't they just design it to NOT overheat? It's been a source of a lot of frustration over the 2 weeks, to say the least.

I'm constantly amazed at how innovative technology can be. Today I found BlueTie, a site that gives you a free, web-based email client to manage your small business. You can set up your domain and manage your users virtually, which is perfect for the modern business that may not have all their employees in the same location. There are shared calendar, contacts, and files. If you upgrade to their Pro services, it includes a sync to Outlook and POP/IMAP access, among other things.

I guess their idea is to hook you in as a small business and when you need to expand with over 20 users or need more than 5 gigs of space, you will continue to use their services. Pretty brilliant.
