Google: evil evil evil

So I went and got all addicted to Writely just in time for Writely to be co-opted by our evil robot Google overlords who think we taste like bacon. At first I only noticed that Writely kept prompting me to sign in with my gmail account (which is associated with real-life and family stuff and the email I put on my resume and so on) when I signed up for it with my yahoo account (purely fannish). Aggravating, as I kept having to click "sign in as a different user," but it took me until iuliamentis pointed out the co-opting to grasp that Gmail and Writely each require Google Account, which can be associated with non-google email addresses.

So when I log into Writely I'm logged out of gmail, and vice-versa, and I am habitually logged into all of my emails all the time.

DAMN YOU, GOOGLE! DAMN YOU!

On a brighter note, hey, it's October!

O SUNS and skies and clouds of June,
And flowers of June together,
Ye cannot rival for one hour
October's bright blue weather;

(Helen Hunt Jackson, "October's Bright Blue Weather")


This means it's four days until regular season (i.e. TELEVISED!) hockey starts, and eighteen days to my birthday. In case anyone was wondering.
