In a fairly recent post, I described some situations where I find ubiquitous capture to be somewhat difficult to implement. Keeping the necessary tools close at hand (as well as being in a free enough position to actually use them) was a common thread among all of my “problem areas”. I’m happy to [...]

In my eternal pursuit of total organization, I’m often faced with the task of filing/saving truly miscellaneous information that I may not need later, but had a hell of a time coming across to begin with. You discover some oddball fact that you’ve wondered about for years (and are happy to finally know), but [...]

The Republic of Geektronica has a very informative post [...]

A few months back, I was perusing David Allen’s website and came across the Two Minute Timer in the online shop. The idea is simple: a small program that counts down 2 minutes, then does something when the time expires. I thought it sounded useful, but I didn’t really think the application justified [...]

My Read/Review list is split almost down the middle between printed articles, papers, etc. and content found on the web (I’m actually surprised by this, given how much time I spend at the computer – I would’ve guessed the vast majority of my list was stuff on the Internet – anyway…). And while it’s [...]

In addition to being a professional computer geek, I’m also something of an armchair coffee connoisseur. I roast my own coffee at home and have a pretty respectable collection of preparation/brewing tools that get some pretty heavy use. I also managed a coffeehouse for a spell when I was younger, so I’ve got [...]
