I've developed this habit, too. One problem I've run across (which I'm thinking you also might have) is I end the day with a whole bunch of notepads open and it is a pain to save/close them. If you have that problem, too, you should check

It looks like ccing messages to Google Groups would work. Example: http://groups.google.com/group/east-bay-hacker-news/browse_t... I also checked a closed group that I belong to and verified that you can use a link there as well but it re

Another option to consider is what the music site rdio.com does. They offer a three-day free trial and then ask for a credit card (which they won't charge) to extend the trial for a longer period. This way you get more people to start usi
