Our Most Popular PostsChronoSync and ThingsRichard Anderson | Jan 19 2008I've been using the Things beta on my desk, and would like to synchronize it's database with my laptop. I've set up a scheduler for ChronoSync, but I'd like to know if any of you folks have a better way. POSTED IN:
minor issue - account settings link?Mike J. | Sep 26 2007Merlin and web dudes, the new site ROCKS! But... As a longtime reader, first-time registered user here, I've yet to find a consistent link to the user account settings. You could usually get to it by clicking on your name in the Online Users section on the right. However I've noticed my username doesn't consistently show up there every time. For some reason I keep looking for an Account link in the upper right of the page near the Username | Log out section. Not sure if this is just something Drupal's missing or what. Bug? Missing feature? You decide. read more »POSTED IN:

Merlin - Separated at birth from twin?Joe Ross | Apr 29 2008I was watching E! News last night (my wife was controlling the remote control, honest!) and saw Merlin's doppleganger, who is a correspondent for that show. Is it just me? Am I crazy, or do Merlin Mann and Marc Malkin look related in some way? Maybe it is just the glasses...and the initials! Too coincidental to be happenstance... POSTED IN:
Quicksilver and Tracking you timeColin Fitzpatrick | Oct 1 2007Hi, Is there anyway of using quicksilver to track your time? Something similar to append to file, but also adds the date/time? Or maybe a start/stop timer that you can adds notes to. Any ideas would be great? Thanks. POSTED IN:
Email Has Replaced The TelephoneAnonymous | Nov 30 2007It's almost 2008 and the fact is: email has replaced the phone. Email is the number one business tool. Why do I say this? Our company email server exchange is down and our business is almost paralyzed, (at least for the next few minutes.) Have you noticed that most of us would rather send an email then pick up the phone? Calling someone takes effort: you have be "on" so to speak. You have to be polite and use the right tone and more importantly you have to think in real time rather than composing your thoughts and typing away. Thinking on your feet is way too hard. read more »POSTED IN:
Effective Standing OrdersRúnar Óli Bjarnason | Jan 30 2008I thought 43f readers might enjoy this. Diana Hsieh on making it hard to ignore your orders to yourself. Good point about not needing a reminder when there's already a natural prompt to think about the thing in question. http://www.objectivismonline.net/archives/003230.html POSTED IN:
