    Farewell... (deserves a separate post)

    Now that everyone has spoken his mind it's time for my last intervention on this rotting hell.

    MS Outlook & NNTP

    Is there a way to add newsgroups support for Outlook? It's a shame Outlook Express has usenet newsgroups support and the big brother doesn't have this feature. The closest I've found regarding News in Outlook was NewsGator. It's an add-on. And I don't think Outlook 2003 will have NNTP support...

    How fast is your Internet connection?

    News Section in front page: different "read" count

    Since most of the news can be read without clicking the news itself (and counting it, in effect, as a "read") why don't we add a script to count as "read" the news entries that have their links pressed?
