Que es?
The Weblog of Brett Singer. Bringing the world what it needs most - a blog.

Note: Sorry about all of the 'hot deals' entries (someone referred to this blog as CorporateShill.com).
The deals and things are being fed into Multineedia.com. We will soon move the deals category over to Multineedia so you don't have to read it, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

    Earthlink

    but Earthlink is getting on my nerves.

    It may be only me, but my emails to Earthlink users bounce back about 50% of the time. What's irritating is that it doesn't happen immediately, it happens about a week after I've sent the message. Example:

    Hi. This is the qmail-send program at www.[server].com.
    I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
    This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

    :
    CNAME lookup failed temporarily. (#4.4.3)
    I'm not going to try again; this message has been in the queue too long.

    --- Below this line is a copy of the message.

    But like I said, it's not consistent. The only consistent thing is that its Earthlink. Used to happen occasionally with AOL, but that stopped.

    The Internet is broken.

    Graphics gripe

    Today's irritation: people who send gigantic TIFF files when a JPEG would be fine.
