Greetings from SingaporeKishore Balakrishnan | Dec 15 2007Greetings, I work for a bigco in Singapore and suffer from email overload (and see the same around) Jakob Nielsen (useit.com - usability guru) in 2000 stated (in Alertbox Mailing List Usability) "In the long term, we need to remove everything from email that is not in the nature of personal correspondence."

The Today ListRas | Feb 6 2008I have been implementing GTD for nearly a year now, I use a paper system and I always try to add improvements to my system. One of the recent things that I've added is the "Today List" this is simple, but very effective way on focusing on the tasks that I have to process in my day. Basically, at the start of each day I go through my @context list and add 3-5 items to my "Today List" and try to hang in next to my PC, where I can easily view it thought out the day. I actually learned this from the "Thing" software for the mac, where you can drag tasks to a today sidebar. POSTED IN:

Some of the changes are experimental and others are incompletely implemented, so if you are experiencing any visual blips or functional farts, please email “bugs” at this domain. Thanks in advance for your help and forbearance. read more »POSTED IN:
Apple & Blu-RaySean Coffee | Feb 6 2008I'm pondering the purchase of a Macbook, but I want to wait for Blu-Ray to be part of the package. I know someone mumbled something about it onstage at Macworld, but does anyone know anything about timing/which Macs will have it first? I googled around a bit, but found mostly rumors that it's "right around the corner"... since, like 2006. Thanks in advance for the help. POSTED IN:
