Here’s a cool vidoe from TinkerNut.com that shows you how you can use Microsoft Outlook to shut down your PC remotely simply by sending your PC an e-mail. Of course, you will need to leave your computer on.

Better yet, simply turn your computer off before you leave your home/office. :p

This video will show you how to shutdown your computer from anywhere using a texting capable cell phone, Microsoft Outlook and a free account from www.kwiry.com.

It’s been months since I dumped Microsoft Outlook for GoogleDocs and I have to say, it’s rather nice to have all your important data online, retrievable by any computer with internet access rather than having to carry or send/receive any data.

Getting back to the point of this story is the fact that you can actually feed GoogleDocs spreadsheets stock market data simply using a syntax of code shown here:

Retrieving Current Stock Information

=GoogleFinance("symbol", "attribute")

Pulling Historical Stock Data

=GoogleFinance("symbol", "attribute", "start_date", "end_date", "interval")

Yes, this is yet another example how Google is far superior to Microsoft, especially the fact that you can link up stuff from websites.

Here’s a cool HOWTO on remotely shutting down your PC via SMS. This might come in handy for all you automators…

I recently read an article on lifehacker that explained how to shut down windows with a text message.
(http://lifehacker.com/software/remote-computing/shutdown-windows-with-a-text-message-172873.php)
Although I think this is a really cool idea, I don’t own microsoft outlook and I wanted to figure out a more portable way to go about setting up this project on my computer.

With an add-on and a few tweaks, it is possible configure this, with a portable copy of Mozilla Thunderbird.
This should take < 10 minutes to set up and configure.
