Adrienne is back home again.  She didn’t have any contractions while being monitored.  The doctor has extended her bed rest for another two weeks.

I have this blog monitored through several different programs: Google Analytics, Feedburner, and Wordpress Stats. Each of these have their own pluses and reasons why I use them. Probably the most interesting and most useful is the search terms used to find the blog or posts on the blog. It can help [...]

Seeing some of the searches that had brought people to my post on Alfresco and Microsoft Office Integration, I thought I would add this little tidbit: The add-in was designed to work for Office 2003, but it can work with Office 2007 as well.
From the Alfresco Wiki:
Although the Alfresco Add-Ins have been designed with Microsoft [...]
