Hanging Folders

Nebson | Nov 25 2006

Hello,

Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum.

According to GTD, Hanging folders are to be avoided, because they are much less efficient and hard to use than regular folders.

Can somebody please elaborate a little more on this? I can't really see why this would be the case.

I know those hanging folder hangers have a knack for snagging sweaters. :(

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. »
