 Writely Switching To Google Account Logins
Writely, the online word processing system acquired by Google earlier this year, has taken one extra step into becoming a breathing member of the Google Borg by requiring that their userbase make the switch from their old Writely user login to that of Google Accounts.
The Google Account program is a unified username & password login which spreads over Google News, Personalized Google Search, AdWords and Google Checkout among other Google Services.
A young, well-educated man on a business trip gets on the plane to find himself seated next to an older, weathered man in a western snap shirt, faded jeans and a cowboy hat. Thinking himself above the old cowboy, the young man decides to make sport of him. “You know,” he says, “I’ve heard these flights go much more quickly if you strike up a conversation with a fellow passenger. So, let’s talk.”
The cowboy looks at him wryly and says, “Well I s’pose that’d be all right. What would you like to discuss?”
“Oh, I don’t know, “says the young man with a hint of sarcasm, “How about nuclear proliferation?”
“Hmm,” says the cowboy, sensing the young man’s attempt to belittle him, “That could be an interesting topic. But, let me ask you a question first — horses, cows, and deer all eat the same stuff–grass. Yet, a deer passes little pellets, a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse makes muffins of dried poop. Why do you suppose that is?”
Dumbfounded, the young man replies, “I haven’t the slightest idea.”
“So tell me then,” says the cowboy with a smile, “How is it that you feel qualified to
discuss nukes when you don’t know shit?”

Adobe InDesign CS2 Tip—Editing Goes Drag-and-Drop
Layers magazine Tip of the Day
If you do a lot of text editing, once you try drag-and-drop text you can’t live without it. To see if this feature is enabled, go to your Type Preferences (InDesign [PC: Edit]>Preferences>Type), in the Drag and Drop Text Editing area, and click Enable in Layout View if it’s not already selected.
Now just select some text, click-and-drag that text, and drop it when an insertion point appears at your desired point. Cool and a lot faster then Cut and Paste.
