I know this is not GTD related but I found a blog that had linked to DidIGetThingsDone.com and they had a cool blog entry that has 125 cool code snippets for web designers.

Now I know a lot of my readers are fellow bloggers and these types of code snippets will work fine within WordPress so I thought I would share the tips here as well as saving to delicious etc..

I hope you enjoy this find.

I recently discovered a great application that is saving me a ton of time. This is called TextExpander, from SmileOnMyMac.

I discovered this application after watching MacBreak Episode 63, which has Merlin Mann covering TextExpander.

Merlin has also posted a new blog item about using TextExpander to help with Amazon associate information in Blogs.

Be sure to check these links out and give TextExpander a try, if you are lucky enough to own a Mac that is!

I have just added the Admin Tiger plugin for WordPress 2.0 from orderedlist.com

This is a fantastic WordPress plugin that vastly improves the look and feel of the WordPress Administration pages.

The current default WordPress administration area is functional, but I felt it could be improved. For several reasons, I didn’t want to touch the XHTML framework of the admin, but instead relied on the power of CSS2 to manipulate the presentation. The whole package has been wrapped up into a single plugin. Just install and activate. The new design will be immediately visible.

Be sure to check it out, you will not be disappointed.

Well, the Blog has been running for three days now and I am averaging around 70 visitors per day. Over the next week I am going to focus on improving the way the blog operates.

I have been given an eBook by Joel Comm that covers Blog optimization so I will be introducing a lot of the concepts that Joel mentions in the book that appears upon first reading to be very good. As always, if anybody reading this has any comments on my Blog, or advice that can give, I would be very grateful for comments sharing their information.

Well, after a night of trying different themes, I decided on the classic Kubric 2 theme along with some custom CSS and images. I have a cool application on my Mac called CSS Edit. This makes CSS editing a dream.

Also check out the three column version of Kubric 2, that is one for another rainy night.

I have built up a bit of knowledge of Blogging by creating three blogs already. These are DDoS Info, WII Injury, and Mac Beginners. All of these are on TypePad. I have also played with Blogger for another personal Blog.

This blog is using WordPress. I am new to WordPress but look forward to using a system that provides more functionality as I found TypePad to be extremely restrictive.

As well as writing about my experiences with “Getting Things Done” by David Allen, I will also let people know about my progress with WordPress and how I have managed to convert this into a usable blog for this purpose.
