My wife wants to become an Excel ninja. (It is for her job; we use free software at home.) Her preferred learning mode is self-help books. Can anyone recommend a good one for this purpose? She currently has 2006, but may upgrade when they get off of XP. Are the differences large enough that the version will matter? I know nothing of Excel, so any guidance anyone can give would be most helpful.jasonriedy@fmrl.me, jasonriedy@fmrl.me shared this.

I am delighted to announce that my partner of 25 years and I, went to Washington, D.C.and got legally married today. It won't mean much in South Carolina, where we now live, but equality is a work in progress. Right now we are the happiest two women on the planet.deejoe, Claes Wallin (韋嘉誠), Francesca Ciceri, Dana and 9 others likes this.

As is my personal tradition, I am drinking hot chocolate while it snows. This one had a Folger's coffee bag thrown in while it heated. A pleasure indeed.Evan Prodromou, jasonriedy@fmrl.me likes this.
Drinking hot stuff while it's amazingly cold outside, sounds nice =)

Can anyone explain this error message to me?
Already have a(n) 'edge' with id 'acct:sdp0@identi.ca→acct:aeva@identi.ca'jasonriedy@fmrl.me, jasonriedy@fmrl.me shared this.
It seems that you tried to follow Aeva Ntsc, but you were already following her, so pump.io complains.
It means you already follow that person. But it's a terrible error message. Where did you see it? pump2tweet?Evan, it appears in the web interface of identi.ca, I just reproduced the error. I was logged in identica, so I logged out. Then I went to https://identi.ca/aeva, and it appears the "Follow" button. I click there, then it redirects me to the login page, I login, then it redirects me to https://identi.ca/aeva and... the follow button is there! (although I'm following her). I press the Follow button, and I got the error. After getting the error, I update the webpage (go to the browser address bar and press enter), and the "Follow" button dissapears (the error too), and the "Stop following" button appears.
Maybe something related to closing the session, browser cache or things like that?

Today I got a notification in gmail "Your contact Manuel Valera joined Google+". I don't know him. (Google seems to think he's a Cuban pianist.) He's not in my contacts. I don't use Google +. (I'm only on it to shut them up asking me to join.) So what will the NSA make of that notification? Something, no doubt.2013-09-10T14:00:47Z via Identi.ca Web To: Public CC: Followers
"Memorization is a frontage road: It runs parallel to the best parts of learning, never intersecting. It’s a detour around all the action, a way of knowing without learning, of answering without understanding."

After reading Evan's interview at opensource.com I see pump.io as more of a toolbox. Sure it is usable directly, but it is also a kit for making things the way you want them, a trait it shares with Debian, Emacs, and many other FOSS projects.

Agreed. Which is why folk complaining about the web interface are missing the point.
