GTD and Mutt
2007-10-8 – 12:30 am
I found this article about Getting things done with mutt. It talks about using the the techniques from David Allen’s productivity book “Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity“. I’ve been reading GTD for a week now (taking my time, you know) and think it’s pretty interesting.

2007-10-1 – 9:31 pm
I have just released version 0.8.0 of “It’s All Text!“, the Firefox extension that answers the age old question, “What happens when you give a yo-yo to a flock of flamingoes?”1

So I have finally submitted It’s All Text! to Babelzilla, the mozilla translation site. It took a little work to get in, though. There isn’t anything so simple that I cannot break it.

Get “It’s All Text!”

2006-09-7 – 5:18 pm
Way back when, I wrote a version of Cosmic Wimpout.
The page that had the links to the sources, the bug tracker, etc. have been slowly decaying. Since I have moved to a new webpage I decided to move Cosmic Wimpout over to “Trac”:http://trac.edgewall.org/:
