OMG! Opera web browser speaks selected text!
- erich13 OMG! Opera web browser speaks selected text! Wow! The only thing better is that Mac OSX speaks any text in any application! Incredible! 2 minutes ago from TwitterFox

- erich13 And I bet others know that Mac OSX speaks, but I just discovered it. Should have known that Apple could do this. Simply amazing! less than 20 seconds ago from TwitterFox

Pangram - Word of the day
A sentence containing every letter of the alphabet. Useful in font demonstrations. Frequently used are phrases like “How razorback-jumping frogs can level six piqued gymnasts!” or “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.” But less common are “The risque gown makes a very brazen exposure of juicy flesh.” or “Jaded zombies acted quaintly but kept driving their oxen forward” or even “The sex life of the woodchuck is a provocative question for most vertebrate zoology majors.” and the even more rare “Jelly-like above the high wire, six quaking pachyderms kept the climax of the extravaganza in a dazzling state of flux.”

- Prepare to compose an email (e.g. click on Gmail_Notifier icon's downarrow, click on Compose Mail)
- Address email to your Google Docs Upload "Email-In Your Documents and Files" email address (e.g. Firstname-Lastname-uniqueidentifier@@prod.writely.com)
