Google Trends Reveals People's Predictability - The correlation between searches on "rain" and "depression" is fascinating.
apophenia: algorithms for dumb security questions - Great idea for creating a reusable "security question" pattern. (cf. previously here) [via anarchaia]
David Allen Company :: GTD Gear :: *New* The GTD® Tickler File - Pretty pricey, if you're asking me, but a quick way to get started with your own 43 folders (and they do look well-constructed). [via]
I need examples of things and secrets only a very in the know sort of person would know about - Wonderful ideas for "stuff normal people won't know." And, yes: Grenyarnia is much more exclusive than Svenborgia. Psh. Can't believe you didn't know that.
An Entirely Other Day - Utterly Failing to Get Things Done - Greg Knauss should totally write something for 43 Folders. Am I wrong? Am I?
Everything I Know About Presentations, I Learned in Theatre School - Terrific post that gets you thinking at a much higher level than your more quotidian "Try not to say 'um.'" tips. Highly recommended.
Quantification Table for Site Owner - Leslie Harpold's fun personal Harper's Index makes me melancholy to see her again. Sure do miss her.
