Sticking it to the Man!

The client I am at blocks all IM and external email so staying in touch with friends and family is quite difficult, considering I don't like talking on the phone. Google Talk worked for a while, but was recently shut down (I cried myself to sleep that night).

In my constant fight for human (IMing) rights, I am resorting to using a shared Google document (i.e., Writely). This solution cannot be declared a success yet as the adoption rate from my friends is quite minimal. Ok, its zero.

By the way, I wrote this blog entry using Google Docs. The shared features are "pretty slick" as Brian commented. Give it a try ==> Google Docs
