As a follow up to my USC email post, not that to keep things consistent, it’s necessary to change Thunderbird’s default setting under Account Settings -> Composition & Addressing. Instead of start my reply below the quote, choose start my reply above the quote. This is consistent with Gmail and USC’s web-based email client.

I was using 92% of my USC email storage capacity. They only allow 75 MB to be stored. So I downloaded all my email using the latest version of Mozilla Thunderbird (an excellent email client, by the way), and checked my account. Nope, I still have 70 of 75 MB used. I Googled for “usc email remove from server” and found my answer.
I’m just going to summarize on my past hour of web browsing. TechCrunch’s “Companies I’d like to profile (but don’t exist)” has interesting new website ideas for people looking for something to do. Let’s take a look at what progress people are making.
1. Better and Cheaper Online File Storage: box.net
2. Blog/website Email Lists: I couldn’t agree more. Feedblitz makes me sick
3. Portable Reputations: Rapleaf
6. Free Music: recently, I’ve been very impressed with SingingFish. They have something amazing going on there
7. Open Source Yellow Pages: sweet idea
8. Podcast Transcriptions: how are we going to find the podcasters and convince them to pay for this?
9. Decentralized Review Aggregation: yes! I want this! Google doesn’t cut it. Too many commercial sites
10. Build Something Cool with SSE: That’s bidirectional RSS. Nice idea
