Gmail Account Lockdown – BOO Google!
OK so this is frustrating. Google has locked me out of my own Gmail account for ‘unusual activity’. There is no explanation as to why and there is no human interaction at all. I just get is this huge error message when I try to login. They could handle this better by sending ‘bad’ people an email about why they think they’re account is being abused and move fromt there. This lockout system strikes me as very ‘evil’.
All of a sudden I trust Google a little less. If the digerati loses trust in GOOG than they have a serious problem.
UPDATE: I was locked out of my email for a full 24 hours. When I tried contacting Google they wouldn’t explain why I’d been locked out or how I could avoid it in the future.
It looks like I was still receiving email during that whole time. Given that, from now on all of my email is being auto forwarded to another dummy Gmail account and then to another dummy Yahoo account so I can get to email emails even if they prevent me from logging in.

Mac Flickr Uploadr
Why haven’t they updated the Mac version of Flickr Uploadr since Oct 17th 2005? Sure there are lots of other uploaders out there but it would be really nice to have one that has some organization features as well. Weak…

Students fire up their OLPC laptops in Nigeria! Woot!
“Hassounah shows the students how to boot up their open-source laptops. The bright colors were designed to appeal to children, but the bug-like antennae are mostly practical. Two wireless receptors magnify the laptop’s ability to net an Internet connection, which varies in availability throughout the test regions.”
“This school is the first test deployment site for OLPC’s XO laptops. OLPC installed a satellite dish, power generator, and modem to give the school electricity and Internet connectivity.”
