I just found that you can get Google Apps for free (standard edition) for any domain that you may own. I just set it up for my domain and I think it's pretty cool looking. You can get Gmail on your domain, some simple webpages, a google ig start page (partner page or something like that), calendar, and docs for your own domain. For the standard edition (free one) you can have like up to 100 users and each user gets 2gb of mail storage.
The really cool thing is that Google has the MX entries to set the mail up and a place to redirect all the other domain settings to. All i had to do was set up the Google Apps thing, then log into my domain administration page and enter the entries that the step by step instructions say to.
The only downside that I see at the moment is the simplicity of the webpages that you can make. I didn't really look that far into it, but as far as I saw, they are pretty basic pages. If you have a domain that isn't being really used or pointed to anything, or you just want a cheap way to get something up and have a nice mail system, Google Apps is definitely something to check into.

Safari. On Windows?
For anyone who has yet to make the full switch to Mac (myself included), it looks like Apple is releasing Safari for Windows. It's still in beta, but from the Apple site, it looks like it's supposed to be much faster than Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox. I own a Mac (Powerbook G4 laptop) and when I'm using it, Safari is my browser of choice. Now I may have a new browser to use while I'm working on my desktop (I currently use Firefox 2). Once I give it a few days testing, I'll have to report back how it goes. Anyways, here the link to the page about Safari 3 and the download page.
First post. Woo!
Well, now that I have something presentable up for my template, it's time for the standard first post. My first posts are generally very short and tend to end up looking something exactly like this. Rather than drag it on too long, I'll just end it here and let everyone look at my new template :)
