HeadlineSpot If you’re using Gmail, you’ll hate you didn’t know about this sooner | Buzztrick Did you know an average person spends nearly 30% of their time reading and responding to email? Theres no way around it, Im a heavy email user and I wouldnt be half surprised if I spend nearly 45% of my time processing email. Ive accepted that email is a huge part of my life and a vital form of communication. What I cannot accept is the insane amount of unimportant, useless email I receive. On a quest to find a solution, I quickly accumulated a notepad full of failed attempts, including Gmail Tabs. I knew I would need a solution that did several things: As I reached my breaking point (bloodshot eyes, overgrown facial hair, nervous twitch, etc) a friend pointed me in the direction of a service called, SaneBox.

Machine Learning - Download Free Content from Caltech The 10 Tools of Online Oppressors - Reports SAN FRANCISCO In reporting news from the world’s most troubled nations, journalists have made a seismic shift this year in their reliance on the Internet and other digital tools. Blogging, video sharing, text messaging, and live-streaming from cellphones brought images of popular unrest from the central square of Cairo and the main boulevard of Tunis to the rest of the world.

Google Docs: Default to Anyone With the Link Can View I was talking with a teacher who was wishing that it was possible to have Google Docs default to “Anyone with the link can view.” This would ensure that when he shares resources that viewers are not told that the document is private and they do not have access. If you set the sharing settings on a folder then any documents in the folder inherit the same sharing settings. In Google Drive create a folder that you will share resources from. Click on the folder in Google Drive. Icons will appear in the tool area; choose the sharing icon that is represented by an image of a man with a plus sign. Click on the word “Advanced” in the bottom right hand corner of the sharing screen. Click on the word “Change” to change the sharing settings away from private. Choose the option for “Anyone with the link” and leave the default for “can view” down at the bottom. When creating a new document go to the folder first. This trick also works for teams.
