I use Outlook. In fact my entire business depends on it. And, believe it or not, for years I have put up with the tiny, tiny font size Outlook defaults to when installed.

Sure, I’ve played around with this and that. I’ve changed screen resolutions (that have absolutely zero effect, of course). I’ve changed what I could find in the settings and options within Outlook itself – still nothing. Then I’d just give up and continue working – until recently when I said, “Enough is enough, there has got to be a way!”

The following information on changing Outlook’s font size provides the solution. Correction… it solves about 90% of the problem. However, once you’ve made the adjustments shown step-by-step via screenshots, your eyes will jump out of your head and thank you!

Again, it’s not an entire fix, but the “important stuff” such as finally seeing the list of messages in your inbox will make a world of difference for you.

NOTE: I did find that for all the hundreds (literally) of folders I have in Outlook, each needs adjusting. But if you take the really needed ones – your inbox, delete folder, storage areas for important aspects of business and/or family communications – and follow the steps above, your new year will be off to a BIGGER and better start when it comes to receiving and reviewing your incoming mail!

NOTE on NOTE: I cannot believe it took me this long to find some sort of solution. I can only hazard a guess that after looking (most likely with the wrong keywords – see how important keywords are?) that I continued to put this important task on the back burner.

I love when I come across something that is timely and of particular interest to my family and me. Just the other day, I took a photo card from my husband, put it into the always-used port reader and what happened…?? Absolutely nothing. We had never had trouble before downloading photos, why all of a sudden did the USB slot “stop working?” It just didn’t make any sense.

Well after much fiddling around, and looking for this and that adapter, we were finally able to get the photos off the card and onto the computer (but it was really frustrating!). To add insult to injury, these memories will most likely sit forever on my C Drive, never printed and eventually forgotten.

So when I came across the Eye-Fi it really caught my attention!

Now here’s a way to literally change how your upload your photos for friends and family, along with a unique way to store them!

If you’re not a blogger then this might not mean that much to you, but those of us using Entrecard are jumping for joy that the new management has finally updated the Entrecard Firefox bar (for FF Version 3.5)!

This makes visiting our other blogging friends super easy!

Kudos to the new management!

Well this morning I thought, “Why not?” and decided to update my Internet Explorer 7 to IE8. My reasoning seemed sound, I don’t use IE much – I’m a much bigger fan of Firefox, but what the heck.

I did do some research prior to making this change, hearing the good, the bad, and the downright ugly.

It’s unfortunate that (so far and I’m just getting started) viewing my own (other) website, My Wizard Ads now places that web site – viewing with IE8 – in the downright “ugly” category.
