I’m writing this post (after another lengthy hiatus, I realize) from a new service that a colleague told me about. Called IMified, this service allows access to a number of services and tools conveniently through your IM client. This first post will serve as a test to see how well it works, but this seems very useful, especially for quick posts. In addition to the blogging module, I also have access to my Backpack account , as well as other note, reminder and network tools. They also have widgets for calendars, other blogging tools, and various social networks. Looks very cool, and I’m interested to see how useful this becomes to me!

More is coming – there’s been a lot going on lately, in our lives, and, of course, the geeky stuff too.
