Yabba Dabba Do!

Once again, totally loving Google's change for the day to celebrate something special... the 50th anniversary of The Flintstones!

When I got to Shoeboxed today, Caitlin and I were sitting in the marketing room confessing that we both DVR it regularly since it airs on the Boomerang TV network from Cartoon Network (along with The Jetsons and other longtime favorites).

Any other "timeless" classics you love? I'm also a sucker for Alf and Disney animated classic movies that are NOT in 3-D.

Google Outdid Google

Slow Internet on the Cell?

How cool is it that you don't have to get on the super slow internet on your phone (or worse - no internet at all) or listen to the ads on "Free 411" (1-800-373-3411) anymore.

Once again, thank you Google for making life just that much easier.

1-800-GOOG-411 (466-4411)Put it in your cell phone address book/contact list now if this is the first time you've heard of this!

How Pretty is Google Today?!

Guess who will be doing a lot of Google-ing today?

I Promised Myself I Wouldn't Blog Today...

...because I have SO much to get done right now, but this was too juicy to only share with Adrianne (my fellow Google-addict).

Now, brace yourselves, this is not very Southern-girly of me, but like my profile says: I'm at home in the modern world. And I absolutely love the convenience of the Google Toolbar (as a preface to the following...) and how it lets me basically "take everything with me" when I switch from IE to Mozilla or between computers.

Here's the email I just sent Adrianne, because I knew she'd literally laugh out loud in her newly upgraded cube (baller-status in less than 6 months? Atta-girl!!) at work:

So I wanted to add the “add to google reader” button to my google toolbar (assuming there is one, I haven’t gotten past the first page yet).

Anyways, I digress; I just wanted to point out the #3 most popular button that users are adding to the google toolbar:

Most Popular Buttons
YouTube Search - Add
Gmail - Add
Better Sex Tip of the Day - Add
Wikipedia - Add
WhiteSmoke: Check Your English Grammar and Spelling - Add
Scandalous!My, my, my! I hope everyone else enjoyed the same little snicker that I'm 99.9% sure Adrianne just had at work. And don't worry - I won't check my Google Analytics to see how many people clicked "Add" next to #3 on the list. :-P

Update: Naturally, Adrianne blogged on the subject, too!
