Skype in the palm of my hand – perfect. I’m so jazzed about this. Free Skype-to-Skype calls and handheld instant messages from any Wi-Fi zone…somebody pinch me, please. I remember trying to do something like this through the web browser on my old Treo once when I was waiting for a bus. It was an expensive – and unsuccessful – experiment.

My amazing virtual assistant told me the other day she doesn’t have SMS on her phone. What?!

She has every application known to modern man on her computer, but I can’t send her a message when I’m not at my desk? I just didn’t get it. I’ve always thought she lived on Planet Earth where we ALL have SMS…but then again, we’ve never actually met. She says she’s somewhere in Canada, eh.

I realised our entire working relationship for the past 18 months has been through Skype, so I only bug her when I’m sitting at my computer. Now she can run, but she can’t hide…
