Mom says, "Avoid all caps"

Good afternoon from New York City, where the Macworld Expo is rapidly running down. Just read something on The Register that you should all be aware of.

1. Hotmail is marking email with ALL CAPS subjects as spam and trashing it. Great idea -- but watch your caps lock key when posting, since some list users are on Hotmail.
2. Hotmail now redirects URLs through Microsoft servers, which is totally unnecessary and probably done just to inflate their hit count. :-(

We've had light Expo coverage on <http://lowendmac.com/expo/> this week, including our Best of Show award to a couple new upgrades from Sonnet. I'm looking forward to getting home Sunday afternoon.
