Happy New Year!

The following quote may not be totally unfamiliar to many of us. However, it seems very appropriate as we head into a new decade.

“Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them – work, family, health, friends, and spirit – and you’re keeping all of those in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls – family, health, friends, and spirit – are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.”

Brian G. Dyson, speaking at Georgia Tech’s 172nd commencement address in September 1996.

But then, since everything comes back to us, can there ever be too much?

Google mail

I have been using Gmail for quite a few years now. In fact, for some email accounts, I almost never access my mails using a desktop mail client anymore. While initially skeptical of Google’s choice of using labels instead of folders, I am a convert by now and trust the search service to do its work.

Here is a couple of tips that can enhance your Gmail experience.

By the way, if you are interested to find out more about Google technologies and are in Singapore, please drop by the official Singapore Google Technologies Users Group.
