20 Things you can do with Gmail Filters

One of my favorite features in Gmail is the ability to add filters to incoming emails. I only use a couple different filters to automatically label emails from, for example, eBay purchases. But I do have one filter that would cause a lot of frustration if I wasn’t able to have it.

MSN Soapbox is Back to Public Beta… Again!

Here we go again.  MSN Soapbox is once again flipping the switch back to a public beta.  It’s been an on again off again process ever since it launched.  In February, they opened up their doors from a private beta to a public beta but quickly reverted back to private in March.  It launched last September as Microsoft’s version of video sharing, and just like every other video sharing site out there, they’ve struggled with the site being littered with copyrighted material.
