Once my latest post about improving your Gmail experience hit the Digg frontpage, lots and lots of comments were submitted to that post. One of them was from mmilian, writing the following in the comment;
Adding some tips on managing multiple accounts would be really helpful!
That exactly is what I’m going to describe, as there where [...]

After I published my article about improving your Gmail experience, it became submitted to Digg almost instantly. Now, we are 24 hours further, and over 1000 people have dugged the post. I guess we can call this a success, can we? To be honest, reaching the Digg frontpage with one of my posts, was one [...]

Yesterday I decided that it was time to restructure my email. A completely stuffed inbox and reading Darren’s article about 10.000 to 0 emails in 24 hours convinced me, that it was time for some changes. If you have read Darren’s article, you will notice similarities since I used his tips, but I’ve made some [...]

After my very first succes on Digg, I faced the next big challenge. The post that hit the frontpage now includes 37 comments (including some of myself). All authors of the comment would like their comment to be replied on, I would at least. How can you do this effectively is my next big challenge.

Just a few questions a colleague fired at me, once I [...]

If you are one of those people mailing me about why I posted my previous post in the lifehacking category, this post should clarify that. For all of you who haven’t heard about lifehacking before, this post could be helpful improving your digital life. And for the rest, just read it.
Perhaps you find something that [...]

Outlook, the best used email client for many people who have to work with many emails. I use it too, I even handle all my email via Outlook. But exactly that points me to the only thing in which Outlook disappoints me. It’s not a problem for most users, but a power user like me [...]

Yes, I do know that today is the day. Today is the day that Firefox 3 becomes available to the public. But no, I haven’t wrote a single character about it. Why not? Try visiting spreadfirefox.com and you will know why. The site is down, at least not reachable to me.
Why should I send even [...]

If you are still a follower of my old RSS feed; http://feeds.feedburner.com/CoenJacobs please update it to the new RSS feed; http://feeds.feedburner.com/CoenJ. Both feeds will display the same posts, because the first uses the second as a source.
