I got question about Notifire?

I downloaded the app and it seems okay. My question is about the categories; You can assign each contact a category. such as Always, Home, Work, Meeting or any user defined category. You can then set notifire to be in one of these profile modes. What I do not understand is how do you enable contacts to have multiple categories? Example, Wife= always. Co-worker= work, meetings. Friend= work, home.

It seems it's either one or the other.:ahh:

Jiveslide is only a viewer it can't upload photos. This is what you have to do:

You have to open a Yahoo or Flickr account and upload the photos that way.

1) In Jiveslide, select "New Collection"
2) Change Type to Yahoo or Flickr (This is where your photos will be)
3) Enter your username

It'll automatically download your public photos when you browse from Jiveslide

Is there a free program for working with excel spreadsheets? Also, in your opinions, which icons would you remove from the Home screen? There are too many icons and I can't see my desktop image as well as I would like. Thanks.

[melissaox]

I don't know of a free excel. As for your icons you might pick up a theme with the icons that are semi invisible and change the background picture to what you want. Makes it easy to show off your fav pic,.. my daughter for me. As far as what Icons to hide, its really a personal preference of what you use the most. My current theme I leave some icons I don't use because I like the pic they have. I hide the different email accounts I have attached and the enterprise and internet mail set up, I don't need them all the time. I also hide the help and blue tooth if I am not using it. I am sure there are more that I hide, but I can not think of it at the moment.
