My Lofi System

I finally decided it was time to start documenting what I'm considering to be version 1.0 of my "trusted system." I'm putting it here rather than the GTD sub-forum because - well - I wrote more about the tools than the methodology and most of the tools are decidedly low-tech.

As I have mentioned before, it does not approach the comprehensive whitepapers that emory, Patrick, and others have posted, but it was a start for me to just formalize things by putting them in writing.

Linky.

If you're going to carry...

If you're going to carry around a shirt pocket briefcase (at the end of your flow), why isn't that also your "UCD"?

/SPBC was my favorite Xmas present

Good question.

I've been carrying both the Pocket Moleskine and Shirt Pocket Briefcase. I carry the Pocket Moleskine more than the SPBC. I'm debating as to which to choose over the other and I still haven't come to a firm decision.

So, at least in v0.1, the Pocket Moleskine can be considered a UCD and the SPBC is a portable index card holder.

This is inefficient and I realize it, I just like them both!

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
