Pownce is closing

Per Rejaw:

“We would like to support Pownce import- if you have a Pownce export file, and you want to help us out, please forward it to support@rejaw.com, so that we can decipher the file format…”

Which I will do, but I must wait until I receive it from Pownce:

“…we’ve built a simple export feature that will help you move your notes to a new blog.”

After I chose the link to export the data, I saw:

“Thanks for exporting! We are processing your data…This might take a few days. We will email you when it’s complete or you may check back here at any time.”

bags and wallets/billfolds block radio waves

I was surfing around and stumbled across the Oakley Vertical Computer Bag 3.0:
“…If you have a Bluetooth-enabled PDA or mobile phone, the accessory pocket uses RF shielding to help prevent unwanted access by nosey jerks.”

With so many cards (identification/access/etcetera) having RFID in them, also take a look at:
a RFID Blocking Passport Billfold…
a RFID Blocking Wallet…

and Mobile Edge has a couple of wallets.

rideshare

Have you considered ridesharing? Services exist that you may not be aware of…

I was watching a television show where a member management of GoLoco was interviewed. Knowing that there is a government sponsored service in my area, I became curious about other possible services.

My first suggestion is to search the internet for: “ride share”, and your city or area. When I did, I noticed that eRideShare and craigslist have services to try to connect those needing transportation with those who need some.

I live in an area with no public transportation, and I don’t own a vehicle of any type. Speaking for those in a similar situation as I: it would be life enhancing for those who have transportation to share it.
