Anyone use this? its the only IM service I can use at my work, and Shift is the only forum I can’t get on at work. Its the only thing that keeps me sane at work when I’m bored. ---

Shift is categorized as a “forum” and is blocked by websense which is the firewall used at my work…RSpeed works and [Gixxer.com](http://Gixxer.com) works b/c there are both categorized as “vehicles”. We use skype at work for conference calls to overseas customers. ---
