My Email Process

December 1, 2008

I find it fascinating to learn about how others use technology in their lives so today, I present: how retrieve and process email.

Hurricane Ike Media Review: KHOU.com

September 15, 2008

Among the Houston based local media scene, KHOU is a solid contender and very popular station. Like the other local network affiliates they had “wall to wall” coverage on-air and online. Their broadcast transmission was also being streamed live online.

On Email Organization

April 22, 2008

For the last month or so I’ve been on a rampage, an email rampage. I haven’t quite hit Inbox Zero but inbox 30-40 suits me well actually. Here’s what I’ve done:

I now have only 2 visible email addresses, Gmail and my @jonathancoffman.com mail. Those other addresses (.Mac, Yahoo!, Mizzou, and my secondary Gmail) all now get [...]

A Contributr Update

April 8, 2008

The Contributr team has been taking a little break recently, and that’s not a good thing. We’re trying frantically to make up time but other commitments got in the way.
