Déjà vu…I tried to access an account in the middle of a business day and wasn’t able to do so. Back in November I had a similar, but much stranger experience accessing an Aetna web account. Today, around noon or so I tried logging in to HSBC Direct, I got in, but couldn’t get an eStatement which is what I …

Obama’s Tag Cloud
Photo Credit: http://www.wordle.net Above is a visual representation of the words most used by Barack Obama in his inauguration speech. “new“, “nation“, “America“, “people“, “every“, “must” and “less” were among the most frequently used words in President Obama’s inauguration speech.

Their AJAX way of updating readers with text and photos seems to have been compromised as you can see in the above photo. Few minutes later, things started to get worse. As I …
