This is a simply little tutorial on how to use or turn on Read Receipts in Windows Mail.

First go the tools menu and select “Options…”.

On the window above select the receipts tab, now you are presented with multiple settings for read receipts.
Tick the box for “Request a read reciept for all sent messages” and click OK.
And that’s it! Simple and easy, additionally of course you can choose if you wish to be notified every time about to request a read receipt or if they should be sent automatically.
Hopefully you found this tutorial helpful, so please comment!

Hmm, was just on my twitter page and it wasn’t showing my update total, so naturally i took a screen shot.

However they seem to be back now! yay! (at presenter i have tweeted 1,413 times.
And im sure theres a lot more to come!
So in true blogger style of self promotion.
I don’t usually comment much about twitter, although i really should talk more about it. Particularly as it is fast becoming a very big part of mine and thousands of other peoples daily Internet lives, twittering every thought, meeting and encounter. It really is rather interesting how things like this can completely change people daily lives and out looks at the world around them… and the rest of us by simply sharing what we do with the world.
Also i am sure people have noticed that the few posts i have done in the past couple of months have been me having a rant about YouTube which mainly is because YouTube is a big part of my online life and where i am getting a lot of my content both news, and entertainment from, as well of as course all my news feeds on my iPod which has increased my news consumption ten fold since getting it, i love it.
I have also started a new project online, which i won’t talk about much hear as i plan on devoting a whole post to it, hopefully will be fun, and already it seems pretty cool ^^.
Now to talk about the main topic of this post!
Vlogging every day in April
vlogging every day in April, I thought i would give it ago, so seen a few people talking about the challenge of making a vlog everyday in April, and as i want to make more YouTube videos it sounds like a plan, so i hope to be interesting…
Check out my YouTube Channel at http://youtube.com/user/dansgalaxyand also don’t forget to check out the collab channel i started a while ago – http://youtube.com/user/fiveawesomewebgeeks
Its all good, and definitely a bit of fun, that’s life i suppose.
Night all, or should that be morning?

So quite a few things have changed recently from my birthday, thats right I am now 17 and it seems like at a bit of a turning point…
College in a lot of ways I need to get on top of college to be able to progress with other things. The end of my first college year is in sight and summer is getting ever closer, I have always had problems getting head down when I am with others, far to distracting for my liking and the choice of just sitting in the corner and ripping my nose to pieces on a metaphorical grind stone takes a lot of will power not to mention trying to maintain the balance of being social to peers and friends bit getting the work done. Maybe I should try alternating every other lesson I am unspcialable and try and catch with some of my coursework. We shall see I guess.
Just a mention most of this post was written on a cool little app on my iPod on way home from college, always wanted to be able to write, well touch some posts and maybe this will mean I can start knocking more posts out.
A lot of the projects which I do are up in the air at the minute some clients are obviously being hit by the recession and are putting payments off, which is disappointing and then of course we have the radio station I do some stuff at which currently I am not really doing much with at the moment which is quite disappointing… And now it appears I will be resting from the Saturday evening show, not quite sure what people are thinking but hey! O well, each unto their own. Also been told I will be training others and currently waiting to have a meeting with couple of people so will see if anything materializes from this.
