  • What Lou Likes in a blog

    by

    Lou wrote a list of what he likes in a blog and I agree with them. I’d add that while I don’t want to hear about how bad things are all the time, I also don’t want fanboy blogs either. There are a number of Apple centric sites that I stopped following because they were…

  • Opportunity = Let’s put all risk on workers

    by

    While reading the magazine version of Plastic Money I came across this quote near the end. For its part, Plastic Bank isn’t interested in hiring full-time collectors. “I think it’s even more exciting for the world’s most resourceful to have an unlimited opportunity,” Katz says. “If they want to work more, they’ll work more. They…

  • My least favourite part of `the web`

    by

    I was catching up with some tech news yesterday and while I was listening to a discussion about the latest updates coming from Google and their potential impact on the web I had a sudden realization: when tech reporters say “the web” they don’t mean the web. When these people talk about the web they’re…

    by

    by

    This is my 3653 blog post and just like Seth I’d write even if no one read it. I certainly don’t write for the massive blogging money.

  • Working like the 90’s

    by

    Yes, we should work like the 90’s and get to disconnected when we leave the office. At my job I don’t ever check my email because I only get around 1 email a month that would involve me and it also involves my boss because he copied me. Thus, he always mentions to me that…

  • Kev’s YouTube Shorts Addiction is Everyone’s Addiction

    by

    Kev Quirk writes about his YouTube Shorts addiction and it was mine too until I took the same steps and removed YouTube from my phone entirely. In fact I try very hard to only watch YouTube videos that I’ve saved into Readwise Reader or the random entertainment videos on video games I watch while folding…

  • A Notebook is too slow?

    by

    What if a notebook doesn’t keep up with your thoughts? Wait, what if you’re thinking about it all wrong and you’re attempting to move far faster than you can realistically while giving your tasks and ideas the thought they require? I still sit with a notebook in front of me daily. I track my tasks…

  • Lou’s personal blog

    by

    I read Lou’s blog and love the tidbits of life he shares. I do think of his wife as Wonder Woman and have no idea what her “real” name is. I’d love to know about your personal blog too.
