My employer, inspired, is probably the creative power of the financial crisis, decided to save and disconnect the Internet access to employees. Why didn’t he take computers and did not give out goose feathers in return-I don’t know, I suppose due to the high cost of natural geese.
As a result of this deeply thought -out step, twenty of my work, impossible or almost impossible without a network, fell off, and I have formed some free time. Too much, honestly. While my indignation in writing gets to the heights of the bureaucratic staircase, I adapt to such a little lifestyle. After all, the network is needed not only for work, but also for personal purposes.
So, how to survive without a network at work to a normal (well, slightly geek) person? That such a person needs? By points:
At least some kind of connection, let there be mail. Well, okay – Twitter.
RSS-reader. You don’t think I can not read at lunch?
The possibility of conducting notes and fixing ideas. Yes, of course, a notebook and a pen, but Evernote has already corrupted.
1. Mail. And Twitter.
It should be noted that corporate mail still works. Another thing is that the working address is one, and the personal one is the other. But directing the entire stream of mail from your box to corporate. And in case of an immediate answer, the mail is also tuned in the phone. It is very inconvenient to write there – yes, but you can fill the text in the Outlook worker, send it to your box, open it with a phone and copy to a new letter through the exchange buffer, or forwarding, adjusting the topic.
Any phone worthy of attention knows how to work with mail. When setting up a client, note that IMAP is more convenient than POP. If he is supported by a server and a client, choose it. In addition to the built -in client, you can also use customers written for the almost widespread Platform J2ME (aka Java). Masters such as Gmail, Yandex and, if I am not mistaken, mail. ru offer their own customers. In addition, you can find universal.
Now about Twitter. Firstly, the site itself has a mobile interface, perfectly opened by a phone browser. I like him and I would switch to him, but I could not make him memorize the login and password, and drive them five times a day with the help of a telephone keyboard I will not be. In addition, on my multitask Sony Ericsson, just a browser is to turn off and you can’t, just close. So I stopped at JibJib. The program is good for everyone, I want only one thing: so that all messages in the tape are shown right away, with a continuous text, and not a list of headings from which each has to expand separately.
