I was away for the weekend and just got the chance to update. So lately I have been having lots of technology updates in my life. I switched over to digital phone service which I set up today. What a pain in the ass!
The package arrived from Cablevision with my new modem and instructions on how to set up Optimum Voice. I was all giddy to set it up. I am pretty savvy in computer stuff and other technology gadgets...allegedly. Yeah, cut to 5 hours later and I am finally done. I find it interesting when they send you an installation CD that says "For PC and Macintosh." Clearly the label was printed in 1987. On top of that, the installation CD didn't actually work and I had to call Cablevision to have them manually register my modem. The service seems like it will be cool (now that is is working) as it lets me check my voicemail on my laptop and have the phone ring simultaneously with my cellphone. That's all I needed though..now I have no excuse for not returning any call. However, I can screen calls as I am watching TV, so the caller ID will pop up while watching the latest episode of "Heroes." I am wondering if I can customize it to things like "God damn bill collectors.." "Bi-polar ex..." "Mumsy and Popsy" "Ed McMahon" .
I will look into this.
