Cell Phone P0rn

Ok, back to some of the basics, such as cell phone p0rn.
Anyone in the same boat as me? So the next iPhone is likely going to be introduced very soon. 3.0 seems to be just what I’ve been waiting for. The App Store has anything and everything one could want, and I’ve even read in [...]

Getting Things Done As If It Really Matters

New Year’s Eve. New Year’s resolutions. Time to start fresh.
I usually don’t give a rat’s ass about January 1 as a time to start something new. Maybe I operate on different cycles, Maybe I have different motivators. But it doesn’t matter much to me.
Oh, and I have a pretty bad track record of follow through, [...]

Cell Phone Mystery – Will It Be Solved This Year?

Yes.
I also pulled the trigger on cell phones. The reality is that we cannot afford to jump in the iPhone game right now. And with all the gripping about service and performance, I think it would be smart to wait until the next iteration.
Actually, I just realized the “new” iPods might be introduced tomorrow, so [...]

Verizon and the LG Dare – Experience with the web browser?

It looks like I might have to suck it up (as if life could be so tough, even with no play money) and stick with Verizon. The service is really solid, I’m due for $100 from the NE2 program, and with my contract ending at the end of September, I’m waiting for a nice coupon [...]

Big Rocks, Things, and More ALMOST Getting Things Done (Part 2) – and Annoyances

Welcome back. Part 2 of my dribbling. Here is how the rest of this actually went down. To start, I must say it’s been a nice to dive in and tinker with all of this.
My little experiment went too far. I admit creative defeat. Ok, not really, but the old standby method seemed to work [...]

Big Rocks, Things, and More ALMOST Getting Things Done (Part 1)

It’s that time again. I have some “downtime” and I fill it up with websurfing, tinkering and tweaking systems…anything other than establishing and diving into My Practice (spiritual practice) during this time of great transition. But life will be kicking it up many notches in under a week, so now is the time to dial-in [...]

Ok, cell phone freaks: iPhone 3G, LG Dare or Blackberry Curve?

So, I wish I had more disposable income. That’s the life of an almost done grad student. BUT, I need a new cell phone, I want a new toy, and I am not sure how my service will be when we move to the Larchmont, NY area in a week or so.
My wife and I [...]

Cell phones, Smartphones, Blackberries, PDAs, Treos, hipsters and more

So here’s what I’d like in a perfect world: a reliable cell phone that gets great service.  Period.  Sure I live in a not-so-populated area of New Hampshire now, but this is the 21st century.  C’mon.  I’m also moving to southern CT in a few months, so that will completely eliminate any option of a [...]

Form and Function Within GTD and Productivity Systems

Well, this topic applies to many things, but these are my thoughts as they pertain to trying to find a system that works for me in the domain of GTD and productivity. I have tried many systems. None seem to have the “stickiness” factor I am looking for which will take me away [...]

Avoid or Embrace “The Trap?”

You love “Getting Things Done” (GTD), ZTD, hacks, software, pens, systems, tech toys, Moleskines, and websites that shine a light on the infinite ways to be more productive and potentially feel better while doing it.
You search, tweak, experiment, read, type, write, and brainstorm during your quest for the right productivity FIT between your system and [...]
