I just wanted to wish to all my readers a happy and safe new year, and let’s make 2008 an even better year! Looks like it’s time to get those new year resolutions ready and primed for the first day of January, so be sure to set those goals and aim high.

Ever had an issue that you had to call customer support with that you thought you resolved, only you had to later call them back and use a reference number to bring them back up to speed? Did you lose that reference number?
In many cases, I’ve had very important notes from conversations with technical support for various products I use that I had to keep safe and easily able to access just in case. I’ve kept notes from calling my cell phone provider to calling my contact manager provider, because if I ever have to call back I’m going to want to let them know I remember everything.
If you are a user of Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, or any other software program to manage your emails and are concerned about backing up your data you should consider GMail as an archive tool.
Using GMail, you can effectively archive all your emails in case your main office computer goes downhill. You can also use it as an emergency “on the road” email program in case you can’t access your main computer to send emails.
If you are not archiving your emails, what happens when you have a system meltdown?
