The Holidays

The Holidays are upon us!  Time to make cookies and treats, wrap gifts, and send out cards.

Do you feel stressed at the holidays?  Most of us do.  Here are some tips to consider to alleviate the holiday rush stress.

- Do your shopping all year, especially right after Christmas.  Wow, what deals!

- Wrap gifts as you purchase them.

- Keep a list of your purchases and who they are being given to.

- Place gifts in a special plastic box/tub for safekeeping.

- Have all shopping done by Thanksgiving and wrapped!

- Make out holiday cards in October or November, but before Thanksgiving.

- Make holiday cookies and treats the week after Thanksgiving and freeze.

When Christmastime arrives, you’ll be all done and ready for the holidy festivities!  A great New Year’s Resolution!

Organizing Busy Work and Family Lives

Would you like a free Web Computer?

Imagine having your own free Web Computer.Your Web Computer lives in the internet and can be accessed from anywhere. Your files are automatically backed up and your hard disk never fails.

Your Web Computer comes with a rich set of applications. All of them are pre-installed and automatically updated to the latest versions, and they can be used from any device that has a web browser.

“What about my PC?” You may ask.

You don’t have to give up your old PC. In fact, it’s one of the devices you can use to access your new Web Computer.

But unlike your PC, your Web Computer can’t be lost or stolen, it won’t break or become obsolete in 18 months, and even after you turn off your PC, your Web Computer still keeps working on your behalf—exchanging data, displaying web pages, and providing icalendar and RSS feeds to friends, family, and coworkers.

Sound good? Wait, there’s more…

 

Imagine having as many free web computers as you need. You can have one for your office, one for your family, and one for each of the important groups in your life.Each group has its own shared file storage and a suite of group productivity applications. While we’re at it, let’s imagine automatically networking all of the web computers you use so you can easily share info among all the groups.

Stop imagining. It’s here. We call it AirSet.
