My T-Mobile Rate Plan
How many people are PROUD of their cellular rate plan? I am. Because I believe with T-Mobile, I’m getting fastest network, with the monst innovative features (UMA), at the most competative price. That’s SMART.

"My [Google] account has been locked"
Out of the blue today I got the message that my Gmail, or more specifically my Google Apps account, was “locked”. There was a link that told me:

Crazy Craig's List Applicant
I recently posted an ad on Craig’s List under “Computer Gigs”, and the responses I got make me want to write a book on how not to apply for a job.

T-Mobile "Family Allowances"
T-Mobile has a cool feature called “Family Allowances” that allows you to set limits to all the phone numbers on your account to make it impossible to go “over”. What’s even cooler is that they let you BLOCK any number from calling or texting you. How cool is that?
