I have been figuring out that between Quickbooks Pro + Bento 2 + Addressbook.app + Google Contacts that I’ll have a CRM solution. I need to be able to have/track customers between all of the applications since I haven’t found an “all-in-one” solution that doesn’t feel like overkill. I hope to eventually have hundreds and thousands of customers but I’m not there yet and most of the solutions I have found are for multiple users and a corporate-ton of customers. I’m almost tempted to drop Bento 2 since it requires a lot of attention that I feel could be better spent actually contacting customers. Simple solution would be to create a new group in my addressbook.app and just keep it sync’ed with google and Quickbooks.

So to wrap up my CRM rant I’m looking for a: single user + integratable (Quickbooks Pro on PC, addressbook on Google, mac client counterpart, and Blackberry from the cloud) + small customer base/startup with ability to import from xls/numbers file.

We have been hanging out at the house waiting for any sort of news from Mama Marilyn. I hope the doctor was able to look at everything. Talk about anxiety.

On the tech side of today I have been trying out different iPod applications and seeing if there will be something to consolidate my social networking online. I’ll follow this post up later this weekend as to which apps I stick with.

I have been hosting google apps on my server for a few months now but had been having trouble only using my personal login for services of google apps. I was able to slim down all the accounts to one main google account and then use the same user name as my hosted apps account and so far so good because if you are hosting then your hosted app login will take priority over the standard google account http://m.google.com/sync for a good time that’s once you take the plunge first http://google.com/a

I found an old blogger account that had a bunch of my old posts still on it. I figured this is better than leaving a blank site up so I imported all my old posts into my current site. Yay wordpress Import function

I axed drupal and am sticking with wordpress so that I can focus on template manipulation & creation for a single CMS. I’m currently studying up on meh programming in an attempt to become a more rounded geek. I’ll be heading towards C# .Net which also includes some SQL. There are a few books I’m reading at the moment and not all of them are programming
