The one tip about using space space to end a sentence on an iPhone was worth watching this TED Talk by David Pogue.

Disabling Skype on Trillian Fixes Voice Mail
After enabling Skype within Trillian, my Skype Voice Mail stopped working. Disabling Skype in Trillian and Voice Mail works again. It looks like Trillian has had this issue since February 2012 (version 5.1 build 18 per this post). I’m running version 5.3 build 16 (June 2013) and the issue still exists. Both Skype and Trillian are great—I hope this issue gets resolved.
A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work. You have to start over, beginning with a working simple system.

Access 2013—New is not better…
While I have not used Microsoft Access for a long time (no serious work since Access 2.0 circa 1995), I can’t believe how the product has evolved. The Access 2013 interface is virtually unusable for simple data cleansing/mining tasks. I mistakenly thought Access would be right tool to take some Excel data, add some primary keys, remove duplicates, and make the data more relational (especially since I’m not an Excel guru). Unfortunately it’s now easier to use Microsoft SQL Enterprise Manager than Access 2013. It feels like in the desire to make Access ‘user friendly’ has morphed it into ‘user frustration.’
