QuickOffice
Pages after pages after pages of internet stories uploaded each day, filtered by me to this blog- how does he do it.
Someone asked me just the other day if I actually read this stuff that I upload.
Yes, I do. But not usually in one sititng. It is a lot to take in at times. But before the internet, I was always an avid newspaper and magazine reader, devouring issue after issue of several magazines a month.
Now, with the magic of the Handspring Visor, coupled with one of the coolest bit of software I have ever purchased, I carry most of this stuff around with me and read it on my PDA at my leisure. The QuickOffice suite, including QuickWord for the Palm Pilot is a nifty little piece of software that allows me to cut and paste an online article into Microsoft Word, then save it as a QuickWord document and download it into my PDA. I usually have about four or five articles in there at any one time, along with a day or two of Salon Premium, downloaded as text as well. I highly recommend it. For $29.95 it is a good buy and you will get more use out of that PDA you haul around, besides playing mine sweeper and using it to remember to call your mother.
