OK, so I'm probably slower than most. And I don't like to be dragged through online tutorials and FAQ sections, only to waste my time. I'm the sort who likes to jump in with both feet and figure out something I don't understand.
So it took me forever to figure out where the SugarCRM setting is for timing automatic email retrievals. My web development, hosting, SEO/SEM company XmediaServices.com is now using the Open Source version of SugarCRM, to pull together our distributed workforce. Also to be able to better serve our customers looking for a good and cost-effective Open Source CRM. It's working pretty well, and its nice to have all the records and docs we need in one place.
So for those of you SugarCRM users tired of manually clicking the "get mail" button, it's located under settings (when you have the mail window open). As you can see, I have mine set at 5 min. intervals. Impatient I guess.

FYI: I made this screen shot, with the fancy red arrow using image capture, sizing and commenting program Skitch. It was about 100% easier than using Adobe Fireworks! It's on a free "public beta" right now. But I would actually pay for it, because it saves me that much time, and bizarrely enough, it's fun to use. And no they didn't pay me to say that. Though I wish they would.

Update 3-31-10: Now you can also watch Netflicks.com instant view videos using this same method. And there are now tons of them! Netflicks has finally made instant viewing available to us Mac users (Intel-based). You'll have to load up Microsoft’s Silverlight software to play videos, but a screen will pop up asking your permission.
So you love Hulu.com, and have watched a couple of your favorite TV shows, and maybe a movie or two on your MacBook or desktop iMac monitor. Small but nice. But now you want more. You'd like to kick back on your sofa or easy chair to view that glorious High Definition video on your big screen HDTV.
You only really need 4 things to start enjoying Hulu.com shows on your HDTV. And fortunately, except for the adaptor, you probably already have this stuff laying around.

Screen shot of my HDTV. Watching Battlestar Galactica on Hulu.com.

I'm developing a new training service for businesses and NFP orgs, which I'll probably price at a recession-friendly $1200.
I'm calling it "Zero to Web Publishing God in 1 Week." It's an intensive in-person and online training on web publishing (concept, creation, maintenance, marketing). I used to be an adjunct-professor at Columbia College Chicago, teaching Small Press Publishing, so it should be comprehensive, but also condensed and results focused. A large number of my students are now running their own print and web publications.

I know this is what you writers have been waiting for! A brief plot analysis of Dr. Seuss's fabulous kids book Green Eggs and Ham. I wrote it up for a writers group I belong to, for fun. (Yes, this is one of those odd things I do for fun.) A seemingly simple children's story, Seuss's book actually has perfect plotting and exposition. It illustrates (pun intended) a lot about what a good writer can do with limited space and words— write a book that lives on for generations!
Exposition
Unnamed public areas in and around possibly Whoville. This book is essentially a Road Story, taking place walking, in a car, train and boat. Note: Book first published in 1960 (during Civil Rights, Cold War, Vietnam conflicts). This book reflects the conservative establishment vs. liberal youth conflict at the time, as well as the Establishment / Hippie generation gap.
