You may see some strange postings and changes to the design of the Blog today. I’m busily updating and cleaning up the various webs and social media things I work on and post too – and the templates are being updated to the new design.
From the National Post WORKING section From the "Don't have a clue - PHB department Once a month, tens of thousands of Canadian workers -- from executives to rookie salespeople -- face the challenge of having to file expenses for cellphone calls, wireless notebooks and personal digital assistants on devices they own, but used for company business. Perhaps an even greater number, daunted by the task, do not bother... Full story The result is a subsidy to Canadian business, paid out of employees' pockets, industry observers say. And the reason is simple: Consumers have embraced wireless technology but Canadian business seems firmly anchored to landlines. 50% of employees prefer cellphones and other wireless devices and use them regularly for work. Employers meanwhile do not believe them: 24% of them say their staff uses cellphones regularly and only 10% say employees use wireless computers for work. To me - the most interesting part of the story is this little gem: "Whe...
On being a "Retired" Journalist So here it is 2020 - I got out of 2019 with minimal damage. As you can tell - there's wasn't much going on on in 2019 for my Blogging. I did (and still do) most of my posting on Facebook. Both Quotes of the day and Column of the day are part of what I have been doing as a hobbyist communication and content creation blogger. But I have been spending more time reading and cross-posting than creating. Passing on other people's writing rather than creating my own.

A Googley e-mail issue colecoop@gmail.com - cole.cooper@ gmail.com and colecooper@gmail.com O nce upon a time - October 6, 2004 to be exact - I was one of the first users of Google email beta after getting an invite for the Beta. At the time - I had a Hotmail address for Obandrinker@homtail.com, plus a Shaw @ home address. So after a few minutes in the old system, I ended up with my name in gmail as cole.cooper@gmail.com . Using that account, I set up this blog and my Google+ services, and my Google Plus page. And there the fun begins. Back in 2004 there were not many Cole Coopers on the internet. It was a fairly uncommon name. There are a lot more now. There is a football player Cole Cooper on Twitter at @coopball, There is even a Marvel Cole Cooper character at the Daily Bugle. Facebook pages, and a colecooper.com Which is fine - I don't mind, they seem to have the right guy on their email addresses and I'm not va...
