Yes, eTyres fit the tyres as well as delivering – it’s all included in the price.

Unfortunately, with Sky broadband coming in at half price for a faster speed, I can’t really justify it for the customer support I’ve hand to use about 3 times since taking it out.

Could you really find another provider who is that much cheaper to make it worth moving, who is going to have a similar level of customer service? You get what you pay for I am very happy with Be also.

Comment on The Problem with Webmail by Mark

I did think that you could do it with some reasonably simple filters and labels – and I’m sure I could work fine like that – but for the general unwashed masses, there’s always the danger of removing the label which indicates which account it came from; hence the idea of having the search tag.

The other problem is that I don’t always use Firefox, so the GreaseMonkey idea doesn’t work for me. I use FF at work for my personal account (but Chrome for my work’s Google Apps account), Chrome on my Windows laptop (or maybe FF, or Safari for my work account), on my MacBook Pro I use plain-old Safari (as installed) and on my old Mac Mini, I use either Safari or Camino. If I’m at my parent’s house, I’d probably use IE! As you can tell, I’m a browser whore! I do like the idea of writing a Labs script, so I might have a look at that!

Thinking about it further, there would probably be issues with the threading as well – you’d possibly get a bit confused if the threading went over several email accounts so you probably don’t want to thread over different accounts.

I’m sure a combination of POP3 download (supported by GMail) some custom filters (filtering on the “to” field) and a greasemonkey script to put a couple of label links below the Inbox link would achieve most of this without requiring the intervention of the Google coders? I know this has a few faults, for example the to field is not so good to filter against because of emails you are BCC’d/etc, but it’s a pretty good 95% solution, methinks? You wouldn’t use account:hotmail to search, but instead label:account/hotmail (again, this could be changed through a greasemonkey script). You could even write your own GMail plugin and include it from Labs, that way you don’t need to install the greasemonkey script on all your web browsers…

What I really want from GMail is a way to filter based on generic email headers.

Ah, when have I ever been bothered about RI’s software standards! Chrome it up!

Same it’s only Chrome and Firefox though, neither of which are RI standards

Comment on Outdoor Green Screen Use On TV Is Insane – Gizmodo by Nick

Wow, that’s so cool. I can see exactly why they do it. Complete control over the cinematography; they don’t have to apply for permission to film in famous locations; they can create real/imaginery composites. The Ugly Betty one did seem a little weird though, I would have to agree.

Yeah, but still, £2! That’s ridiculously cheap. You’d buy one just to put in the kitchen at that price! (Plus a couple of spare so that you can easily replace them once they get caked in grease!)
