I read Cultural Intelligence by Thomas and Inkson over the weekend. It’s a great book which discusses misconceptions people can have while dealing with individuals from other cultural backgrounds.

As you can see on the right, I’m currently reading Thomas Friedman’s "The World is Flat."  From what I’ve read so far it’s a very interesting book which talks about globalization.  I’ll post my review of the book once I’m done with it.

I’ve been using the Live Mail Beta with my hotmail account for a few days now and I liked the interface and the functionality (specially because it works in FireFox!) so I decided to hook this domain up with their Windows Live Mail Domains service so I can compare it to Google’s hosted domain service (which I’ve setup for HWG).  I moved my MX record over and setup the account, login, and what do I see? The crappy Hotmail interface! I tried to invite myself into the Live Mail Beta but that didn’t work either.  Very disappointing because I hate the Hotmail interface!

Has anyone else run into this problem?  What are you thoughts on Microsoft’s new mail service?
