This blog runs on WordPress and, as evident, it’s updated infrequently, like one or two new posts per month. There are only a handful of plugins installed on it and one is used to auto-submit new posts to my low-activity Twitter account, @hashemian. In fact, the only activity on my Twitter account is the new — Continue reading Β»

    πŸ“‚ Email,Google     # , ,     πŸ—¨ No Comments

About a year ago Google announced the sunsetting of the Legacy G Suite product that was available free of cost to users who had signed up for it many years ago.

NYC / Manhattan From Up Above

    πŸ“‚ Web     # , ,     πŸ—¨ No Comments

Sometimes one needs to be at the right time, the right place, with the right weather. That was the case for me on a recent business trip on a JetBlue flight from Westchester, NY to Florida.

I’m not a huge fan of Amazon, given my past experience with the company but, as the largest retailer in the world, it’s sometimes impossible or impractical to avoid it. The AmazonSmile program had made it more tolerable for me to, on occasion, order products from the smile.amazon.com URL instead of the customary www.amazon.com. At — Continue reading Β»

A few days ago I received an ominous email from Google. It came with the subject line: Critical security alert, and the heading: Someone knows your password.

Update: Stay On No-Cost Legacy G Suite

    πŸ“‚ Email,Google     # ,     πŸ—¨ No Comments

Not sure what prompted me to do this, but today I decided to login to my free Legacy G Suite account to check if it was still alive.
