Things – Mac GTD App Screencast
Just thought I would share this cool little screencast showing the features of the Desktop MAC GTD App, Things.
I do not use Things myself as I still prefer OmniFocus but I do prefer the visual look of Things and also The Hit List.
Hope you enjoy the screencast!
Productivity, Motivation, and Personal Development Links – 19th April 2009
Had a great weekend mainly due to the great weather in the UK and I have spent most of it outside. Lit my new Weber BBQ a few times and cooked some great food!
This week has seen me away for a few days without Internet access. It is actually quite nice not having connectivity as it really enabled you to focus on the task at hand.
Here are my collection of links for this week.
Evernote Adds Twitter Integration
I have a had a busy week working away on a client site with no Internet access so I have been rather cut off, enough to miss this little gem from Evernote.
I love Evernote and Twitter so the ability to integrate these caught my attention.
So, in a nutshell you can add selective Twitter tweets to your Evernote account by including @myEN to your tweet.

Happy Easter to all!
I hope you are not all sick and bloated after consuming your fair share of Easter chocolate! It is nice to be writing this from home as I have done the last two weekly link round ups on the train from Leeds to London.
Here are my collection of links for this week.
Adding iCal events with Quicksilver
If you use a Mac, you should be using Quicksilver. I got into Quicksilver as soon as I bought a Mac after reading a post from Merlin Mann over at 43Fodlers regarding Quicksilver.
Most people only use the application launching capability of Quicksilver but if this is all you do, there is so much more that Quicksilver can be used for to make you more productive.
The following video is from Derek Neighbors and is part of some fantastic productivity videos that he produces on Vimeo.
Some Different Free Productivity Tools
Sometimes a productivity system just isn’t right for your lifestyle and it can be a massive headache to discover this too late: such as after you’ve already taken your wallet out to give it a spin.
To help with this problem, DIGTD wants to showcase a few different but still useful productivity tools that won’t require any payment to try out.
The first area worth looking into is Firefox-based add-ons; small plug-ins that can provide a little extra functionality for your browser. Mozilla’s Firefox 3 has swept the browser market so thoroughly that many computer users are already familiar with the program and this has resulted in the availability of a massive number of community created add-ons.
Productivity, Motivation, and Personal Development Links – 5th April 2009
I am again sat writing this on the train from Leeds to London. Still enjoying the Free WiFi on the train and looking forward to another two days on a course down in London.
Life is still very busy for me. We had our best ever month at my business last month so there is plenty of work to do which is keeping me busier than I normally like.
Lots of projects to work on and lots of chance to test my productivity and organizational skills. I have just taken the decision to employ our first administrative assistant and I am looking forward to working with her to remove some of my administrative burden.
Getting Things Done – What are your Bad Habits?
This is another great video out of the GTD Summit.
This video has snippets from some GTD Summit attendees about their bad habits with relation to GTD. David Allen himself is even interviewed in the video!
I wish I could have been at the GTD Summit, may have to make next year for sure.
Productivity, Motivation, and Personal Development Links – 29th March 2009
I am sat writing this on the train from Leeds to London. Free Wifi on the train is powering my Internet so no need for the 3G card.
Here are my collection of links for this week.
Well, the WiFi is still holding up so I will publish this whilst I still can. I am down in London for a couple of days on a training course, should be fun.
