It’s been about a week now since I switched over to Office 2007 Pro. I still haven’t played with Power Point (I’m not a big ppt guy any more), Word has been getting a workout for sure. Excel? On the other machine here at home that’s had Office 2007 for a month I’ve played a […]

I’m loving Google Reader lately. Yeah I know that I’ve been a client-side rss reader kind of guy for a long time, but you gotta try new stuff once and a while. So there is a "mobile" version of GR that Google provides. It’s through your mobile browser and not an app. I’ve tried it […]

As many of you know I’ve been a pro blogger for over two years now. In my heyday I could crank out an obscene number of posts in a day. My record is something like 12 posts in an hour. Not so much any more. The pressures of being a part of b5media, Qumana, PodTech, […]

First she customized her Goolge Homepage with the following tabs:
This is how she explains each of the tabs:

It’s been a busy launch week so far. Scot and I have been taking it a bit easy (off our normal couple posts a day routine). I had this post save to write, I’ve been meaning to write it up for way too long … better late than never!

Huh? Isn’t the whole point of having a Blackberry getting e-mail on the go? Yes. The problem is that if you let all the e-mail through, your Berry might be pinging (or whatever your alert sound is) all the time.

Glen over at LifeDev does it again. I’m a huge fan of Basecamp and the other web-based apps by 37Signals. Thing is I think, like many folks, I don’t begin to tap into their full potential, or even to use them to really help me in the whole GTD process. Well, Glen got some advice […]

I caught this on Download Squad this morning. The movie says it all, so I’ll let you watch it, then we’ll chat.
Ready? Is that freakin’ awesome or what?!? I’m blown away. Like the folks at DownloadSquad I’ve requested early admission into the Scrybe beta test group. Since this blog is so new, I’m going on […]

Okay so how many e-mails are in your inbox right now? Me? 773. That’s from October only. Now, what about that presentation you created three months ago and need for something else right now?
