Does anyone out there use David Allen’s Getting Things Done productivity techniques?
Has it worked for you and if not, why?
What does work?
I was curious enough to get the book and put it into my “queue” but I’m curious about the results for others.
Keep that momentum going Firefox…
Firefox has reached a 10 percent market share. You can read the story here. Now if we can just get the Brits onboard…
Take that Microsoft!
Web technologies
I am completely enamoured by several web technologies right now…
XML is still on the radar
AJAX is hot lately
Ruby and specifically the Rails framework is also very hot
PHP5 will always be a favorite with me
What are you guys working with? And if you want some book recommendations for the above, let me know.
World Series comments
Wow! What a great WS to watch. Incredible games. Some would argue that a few breaks here and there and the Astros could have swept the White Sox. Hell if it weren’t for Mr. Lidge that really could have happened! What’s going through that dude’s head right about now? I feel sorry for him.
Baseball, I will miss you old friend! So until pitchers and catchers report in February, I bid you adieu.
Now let’s see what kind of deals happen in the off season!!
Top ten web design mistakes, 2005 edition
I really like the 456 Berea Street Web site. Right now there is a discussion about the top 10 web design mistakes that I find interesting.
MLB Playoffs
The MLB Playoffs are upon us…my thoughts:
– Boston sucks
– Yankees are overpaid, but played well to get in
– Houston : where would they be without Yankee bailers (Clemens, Pettitte)
– Atlanta: amazing accomplishment winning your division yet again…now do something in the playoffs
– San Diego: no chance
– St. Louis: solid from top to bottom
– Chicago White Sox: could be their year
– LA Angels: steady and a scary team to face in the first round.
I should know better…
Well, the whole site got deleted. The hosting company lost a raid array, but I should have known better and done better backups.
Please be patient as I piece things back together…
Today I feel old…
Today my oldest daughter started pre-school! Talk about mixed emotions! Fear, Happiness, Anxiety, Reluctance, on and on. She seems to have had a great first day, which is great, but if she had said “Mommy, Daddy, I don’t want to EVER grow up” well, that would have been fine too!
PHP5!!!
My hosting provider made PHP5 available on a server and I jumped at the chance. PHP5 seems to be everything that PHP has been lacking up to this point.
However, there are some “cutting edge” pains that I’m going through so please be patient. Most things seem to have transferred ok, but I’m still tracking down some incompatibility issues…wish me luck.
Two topics I wish would just die….
Terrell Owens – I already expressed my views back in June. Dude makes me SICK and I’m tired of hearing about it.
Rafael Palmeiro – Big fat Viagra popping liar! And the MLB steriod policy is an absolute joke!
