for those of y'all who run canny Macs

I don't mean to alienate vast swathes of my audience (haha that's rich) but the time has come to give some tips to my fellow mac users. If you already use/know of these then my apologies, but I've found the following to be helpful:

• If you're a good energy saving type of bod like myself and your mac is turned off or asleep overnite you may well be missing the automatic tidy up benefits of mac os x. Good news - you can do it manually. Simply open the Terminal (in Applications > Utilities) and run the following commands:
  sudo periodic daily
  sudo periodic weekly
  sudo periodic monthly


• If you're finding Mail to be a bit slow, quit it, open that terminal monkey again and run this command:
  sqlite3 ~/Library/Mail/Envelope\ Index vacuum subjects;


• Keep an eye on this site: freemacware.com. They have a new free piece of mac software listed every day. True most of it you won't want/need but there's some gems that come up every now and again.

That's me done.

See you later I don't doubt.
