The Tumblelog was a fun little experiment but it didn’t last. So here I am again.
Right now, I’m working on GUI customization for a project involving eStara. They supply the back-end for click-to-call: You’re browsing a website for a product you’re interested but need more information. You click on the click-to-call button, enter your phone number, hit the talk button and a customer representative immediately calls your phone.
I used it once myself at jcrew.com and it worked wonderfully. Nice product.
GrandCentral.com offers a similar feature as part of their consumer level service. Sign up free and get a GrandCentral number. Then they supply you with a number of different widget-like thingies that you can put on your site. A visitor goes to your site, puts in their number and hits the call button. GrandCentral connects your phone to theirs while maintaining your privacy.
I put one such widget on my homepage but no one has used it yet. Speaking of GrandCentral, I should probably start giving that number out to people…

Dear Vanessa
My chocolate lab has a antler growing out of his head….I freaked out by it! I was online looking to find some answers and saw your blog. What did they do? Was it a Cutaneous horn? I thought it was pine sap…its disgusting…is your doggie okay now?
Thanks
Lauren
He’s okay. He still has the weird thing but the vet didn’t seem concerned by it so I’m leaving it alone.
Maybe your Lab is turning into a reindeer!
