Upgrading to Leopard

I teach math at a High school in Oklahoma. I attended a podcast workshop last summer mainly because if you attended you got a new macbook pro. Anyway the district is going to upgrade me to leopard on Friday(which I am pumped about) and I am looking for advice. So far I have everything backed up to my 80 gig ipod (which I also got for free at the workshop) and I have organized my folders and deleted all unnecessary files. So I am looking for advice on what else I should be doing to be ready for my upgrade. Also, should I ask for a clean install or just an upgrade install? Thanks

But ... from what I've read it seems that DevonThink requires a fair amount of manual fussing about - organizing entries and replicants of entries into appropriate sub-sub-sub folders. Is that correct?

Sync Outlook with Basecamp with Palm

Hi Everyone,

My first post. Drowning here in technology hell and need some insight on something that's bugging me for a long time. Much appreciated!

I use Outlook 2003 which I sync with my Treo 650. No problems there.

I manage projects with Basecamp and want to be able to sync with Outlook. Found a neat little sync app for Basecamp called Grabsync. Works great syncing BC and Outlook, but it creates a new task folder so that it my Outlook-BC tasks do not sync with my Treo.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
