First off, more LION problem. A bug in the iCal had stopped me from sending out invitations to anyone. iCal wanted me to first enter the recipient's contact information into the Address Book first. Hello? And I already had that person in my f&%&&())inking Address Book. The iCal is officially a iPad version. I couldn't look at next three months on the left side like I used to in Snow Leopard. :-( O if I want to have the old feature back, I have to pay to upgrade to Mountain Lion! What kind of company is this?
Then I tried to book our fix to Singapore for the 70.3 Ironman race in March. I believe Singapore airline's web developers must be from another planet. It used to take me 10 minutes to do the job. Today, just that one pair of fix took me over 30 minutes. Grind, grind, grind. I am not sure if it had something to do with the comm0ie firewall. With a graphic rich website, this could be a problem.
Over lunch time, I finally had a chance listened to my techie podcast. Well… 4 experts were crying about LION too. They want Snow Leopard back. O yeah, and the xCloud… It was pretty much a cloud of dust. Do NOT use it!
After a somewhat relaxing lunch, I continued my far flung virtual world journey to complete the rest of the March bookings. I started at 1pm, finished everything by 2:30pm. Total time spent: 1.5 hours, to book 2 additional tickets, one online upgrade and a hotel booking. How fun was that? The Singapore airline site continue to run slow and I had to hunt for the place that said "upgrade with miles". Many many different screens and lots of problematic site timeout. Then of course, our ever so stable Internet access by Ch!n@ TE!ec0M. I actually lost connection to WWW for 10 minutes. Nonetheless, I am done! Finished!
Martini, where are you?
