I did the complete "immersion" thing, like learning a new language,
jumping in the deep end of the pool. I've used Chromium exclusively
for a couple of weeks, gathering links for the ezine (and Wavezine).
There's a feature that Don and I both miss so he's checked out the
forums and can't seem to get an answer. We gather links when we
have the time and when it's time to write the ezine, about 3-5 days
before posting, we routinely open Bookmark Manager, choose 5-10
links at a time and right-click to 'open all in tabs'. Then we
check out the sites more thoroughly and write them up. Chrome and
Chromium have no way to do that so far as we can tell and it's an
annoyance not to have a feature that saves time and effort. He did
write the developers making a feature request, we'll see where that
goes.
Ohhhh I never thought of selecting tabs to open I thought it opened
the full folder, thanks heh... duh
In Firefox there's an "Open All in Tabs" in folders but when we're
working on the ezine we open the Organize Bookmarks window, open a
folder, select five or six links while holding down the Ctrl key then
right click. In this case the "Open All in Tabs" selection will just
open the links which are highlighted. While I'm working on the ezine
I never close the Organize Bookmarks window. Once I have half a dozen
tabs open I process them one at a time into my plain text ezine
template, writing descriptions and copy/pasting the URL. When I
return to the Organize Bookmarks windows those few links I've just
worked are still highlighted so I tap the delete key, to make them 'go
away' and select another half dozen.
Yeah Lisa, I watched the presentation and I think this is exactly
what I have wanted for a long time. Shoot me an invite and lemme
check it out.
Done. Sure, you'll have to set up a gmail account, which will also be
an email account, but you can do that after you get the invitation or,
if you've registered in the interim, log into google wave with it.
I enjoy the level of integration offered by google. I use this google
account for my blog (blogger.com), google wave, google voice, google
groups, google talk and I'm pretty sure I've forgotten a couple of
services.
Thanks Don I have fallen pretty far behind with the 18mos of illness
that is still not completely over but with my advancing yrs It may be
good as it gonna get. LOL what the hell go till I stop. Going out right
now to set up the warm water heater for the GH.
Talk more soon.
