Flag It!

Published by Admin under GTD, Mac, Organization

We have already established that I am a Productivity Hobbyist.  I love trying new things and I love gadgets that are supposed to make my life easier.  Since I work online all day long, email is the thing thaat keeps me the busiest.  I have my favorite email apps that keep me Mostly Organized.  But, HawkWings just introduced me to another app that I just had to have.  FlagIt! 

Flagit! is a plug-in that offers Mail.app users customisable flags of as many different colours as you like, as well as question and exclamation marks.

Productivity Hobbyists

Published by Admin under Organization

LifeHacker has an interesting article on Productivity Hobbyists.  After reading certain statements I have come to my own conclusions about myself.

You’re likely a productivity hobbyist if:

  • You frequently do things like re-purpose shoeholders to organize your gadgets.
  • You have a t-shirt that says “David Allen has a posse.”
  • You modify your GTD system on a weekly basis.
  • You’ve ever emptied your geek bag, taken a picture, and then shared the picture with friends. 
  • You seriously can’t wait for the next release of Remember the Milk or Better Gmail.
  • You exchange “Moleskine hacks” with your friends over beer.
  • You’ve ever spoken of “date hacks,” “marriage hacks,” “diet hacks,” “child hacks,” “food hacks,” “kitchen hacks,” “parents hacks,” “brain hacks,” or “inspiration hacks.”
  • Your refer to David Allen as “The David.”
  • You own all of the following: a label maker, digital voice recorder, PDA, hipster PDA, a large supply of binder clips, and an ebook reader (like like Amazon Kindle or the Sony Reader.)

Yep, I am a Productivity Hobbyist, but in reality I am Mostly Organized.
