What is your wallet?
2 May 2006Merlin Mann has a What’s your favorite minimalist wallet? thread happening over on 43 Folders. [here]
I tried the Jimi. Too small.
This one is perfect.
It’s a business card case I bought at the Dell company store on a business trip 5 years ago. I have used it ever since. Holds more than a Jimi, but those [...]
Jimi Wallet – Revisited
2 May 2006I have been using the Jimi Wallet for about a week, and I have retired it for now.
I can’t operate with just five cards. I have too much happening in my life. I know that this violates all of the GTD principles, but I already have it narrowed down to a folding leather business card [...]
My Jimi Wallet
24 Apr 2006My Jimi Wallet arrived today. And it is exactly as advertised.
Small. Compact. Solid.
It forces you to seriously consider the items that you need to take with you on your everyday. I narrowed it down to exactly what I thought it would in this post.
What I am waiting for are the hacks that are sure [...]
LifeHacker Nails It: Rules of Engagement
27 Oct 2005Wow!
Engage. Participate. Be fully present. No auto-pilot.
Meetings and multiple appointments are a fact of work-life; the least we can do is be on time so they can start on time and our peers are not kept waiting.
Respect the attention of your peers. Come prepared means come prepared.
Always have a pen and paper for note-taking. First, [...]
Is that a PDA in your pocket, or are you happy to see me?
In: GTD| Notebook Lust
23 Jun 2005Merlin at 43Folders links to a great post by Robert Daeley. [here]
This post is extremely relevant to me, as I just spent 9 hours lugging my laptop backpack (still waiting for my Waterfield Cargo bag to arrive from a dedicated reader — Large please) around SeaTac, Denver International and Logan.
It would have been even worse [...]
A pen I found
In: GTD| Notebook Lust
16 Jun 2005At my last job, I moved desks a lot. Not because I was being shuffled from department to department, but because the company was in a constant state of flux, expanding with the Internet Bubble 1.0, and then collapsing on itself.
I often found interesting things when I took up residence at my new desk. Once, [...]
Seth G Discovers Robertson Screws…
In: GTD
14 Jun 2005…and I have heard a rumour that David Allen is adding them to GTD, Merlin and Dave Winer are porting them to MacOSX, SOGrady is building them on Gentoo, and Scoble uses them on his tablet. Kathy Sierra is evangelizing how they make happier screwers (???) and Darren Rowse has pointed out how to optimize [...]
lifehack: Notepaper as a Bookmark
In: GTD
13 Jun 2005lifehack brings us yet another great idea: notepaper as a bookmark. [here]
Before I started using 3X5 index cards, I bought a ahck of 4X6 cards. Turns out that the 4X6 cards don’t fit in the Mead Hipster PDA case (here and here). But now, I think I have found a use for them.
The Hipster PDA [...]
GTD Update: Moleskine Diary Didn’t Work Out
In: GTD| Notebook Lust
10 Jun 2005I tried. I really did. I tried to use the Moleskine Planner as a supplement to my daily Outlook calendar, but it didn’t work out. It’s too heavy, too bulky. I think that one of the spiral bound planners might work better for me; I will try that next year.
It is a beautiful book. I [...]
