Trick: Backpack Plus (100pages) - 1st month Free (Calendar coming soon)

For those wanting to see if Backpack is a fit for GTD and/or organizing, here's a trick to get Backpack Plus (100 pages at $9/month) for free the 1st month (btw, they're releasing the backpack calendar soon, according to Jason Fried after the Bezo announcement: "We should be launching the Backpack Calendar next week"):

Go to http://backpackit.com

After signing up (or if you already have an account), click on Account and then upgrade to [="4"]Basic[/] plan (remember: Basic) and enter your card info and this $5 coupon: JMPEZ7XDKT (You can only use the coupon once and it is subject to change or termination without notice - if it expires, then the upgrade won't go through anyway so you won't be charged... and it works as of July 23, 2006)

The coupon covers the Basic plan.

Next, upgrade to the Plus plan. You will not be charged for a month.

I find the 100 pages (versus 25) gives me the freedom to really put it to the test for all my stuff.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
