rescued by timeSnapper

Timesnapper just saved me a lot of work!

I forgot to save a little "working query" I was using yesterday -- but found it with timesnapper and had it retyped in just a minute.

This has happened twice so far this week.

So there's another use for timeSnapper --> retrieving work that is otherwise lost for good.

I'm not recommending timeSnapper as an alternative to saving your work :-). But it's a handy fallback.

No worries, mate. Actually, I realize I was unduly harsh with the marketing comparasin. Marketing folk are some of the biggest and evilest cockroaches to walk upon this planet and you, my friend, are not one of *them*. You're just a happy programmer who's proud of his little baby.

This is what happens when you leave blog comments when you're in a bad mood.

I dunno. Timesnapper is free. He dosen't make a dime if it's successful or not.

I'd chalk it up to being excited that a tool that you intended for one use has other nifty side effects too.
