- It’s Time to Stand Up to Your Email - WSJ.com - Quoth your (alas, unlinked) author, “checking email and not doing anything about it is the worst habit.” It’s true.
- Custom search forms with Views and Fastsearch | Lullabot - I love Views so danged much, and fantastic recipes like this make me just point and gesticulate whenever people say “Why Drupal?” Them Lullabots are some smart cookies. [via deli/siliconmeadow]
- Antony Johnston (Getting Things Written) - Thoughtful, complete, and coherent GTD-based workflow optimized by an accomplished freelance writer. An excellent read. [Thanks, Kelly DeConnick]
- Cool Tool: Craftsman Auto Switch - “Whenever you turn your tool on, it will automatically turn the other outlets on. When you turn your tool off, it waits a few seconds before turning the accessory outlets off…”
- Pile of Index Cards - a photoset on Flickr - Okay, I’m not made of stone, people; I admit that some byzantine systems totally turn my crank. I wonder if Josh D has seen this one.
- Michael Randall [Giving More Engaging Presentations] - Ton of great resources on doing presentations.
- Lunchbox - Find lunch around your workplace - Fun Yelp and gMaps mashup for deciding where to eat. Would be super-handy for traveling. [via Daring Fireball]
- Eye for an iPhone - Jerzy wins the internet this week with this handsome Chuck Norris-esque tribute to Scott Bourne’s mad fighting skillz (context: MBW 54). Because you know who else hated iPhones? That’s right….

Re: Getting things written
I liked the story of how the writer implemented GTD. Although I do not think that this “system integration/customization phase” is only required for writers. I think for the system to really work for you and for you to enjoy it, you need to do the same kind of fine-tuning that Mr. Johnston has done.
