Finally a GOOD free online fax service: Hello Fax

Several times a year, I still come across some business or organization that requires their forms be signed and FAXED back (no, they won’t take a scanned doc), and since it’s been years since I’ve owned a fax machine, I just search for some online fax service. In some cases, the free services will include their ads on the actual fax (very unprofessional), but many other times I’ll just pay a couple bucks to buy some credit just to get it over with.

But now, Hellofax has figured out a reasonable freemium model and it’s getting bookmarked.

Fixed: Gmail Notifier Won’t Connect

I use Gmail Notifier on my desktop PC so that Gmail handles all mailto: links, but I don’t really care for it as a notifier. But if you do install it and get the error message  ”Cannot connect to your mailbox”, it may be because you’ve set your Gmail account to only use https, which the notifier is incompatible. So Google has a Windows registry fix/patch for that. Problem solved.
