Suffering from withdrawl...

[abendgules]

Got a 'hard-drive warning crash imminent' msg on Friday evening.

Thank small gods for geek friends like HG Alaric, who cheerfully squeezed in home visits to our sick laptop, on top of work, and gearing up for this weekend's feast cooking.

So Robert and I are now both recovering our bits and bobs, reinstalling things we usedtahave. I'm mourning the loss of my bookmarks, but honestly, it's like clutter - if you haven't used it in two years, you probably won't - and the site has probably moved/changed anyway.

Happily, I use Yahoo mail, so nothing lost there - just loss of access.

It was very very quiet in the house on the weekend! No Intawebs, no downloads, no radio listen agains... eerie silence!

To avoid losing bookmarks in the future, use Firefox with the foxmarks addon. It saves your bookmarks online, and allows you to sync them amongst a number of computers (or in this case a new computer.) It has saved me on a number of occasions from losing everything.
