Patrick LenzL Where Clear Fits In  →
What I found, however, is that because of the sheer speed of using Clear it’s perfectly usable as a pure list-making tool to complement the full-blown OmniFocus experience.

Microsoft Office for iPad and the iPad 3 keynote →
An interesting theory over at The Loop. Although I’ve come to loath Microsoft Office many people still live and die by the software. It will be a huge win for Microsoft if they release it.

Friday Night Heights →
$60M high school football stadium is over the top, even for Texas I am really into the TV show, Friday Night Lights (via Netflix) and this article seems like it is ripped out of a script.

Suite anticipation: Microsoft Office for iPad... →
Although I have grown a strong distaste for Office over the past year, I think this will be great for the iOS community. Especially all of us who work with iPad’s in regular offices.

It's Unnatural →
parislemon: Sarah Lacy talking about Google+ on PandoDaily: We simply don’t need another social network, no matter how great your circles are or how badly Larry Page wants to have one.  Agreed. The problem, which Google really, truly does not seem to understand is that at the end of the day, they’re solving a problem which has already been solved. They may think it hasn’t, but it has. It’s...

PeteSearch: Why Facebook's data will change our... →
Everyone is on Facebook. I know, you’re not, but most organizations can treat you like someone without a phone or TV twenty years ago. The medium is so prevalent, if you’re not on it’s commercially viable to ignore you. This broad coverage also makes it possible to answer questions with the data that are impossible with other sources.

Truckers, Look For A New Job...
mckaythomas: There has been much hype over these self-driving cars over the last year or so. It was all kicked off by Google’s success in the space, which prompted many to ask, “Is it safe?”  Nevada set out to answer that question and the answer is yes. They have been testing these cars for a while and have passed a provision allowing them on the streets legally. Although typical drivers and...

Samsung's Galaxy Note is the most useless phone... →
After I saw the commercial for this phone during the Super Bowl I knew it was useless. A friend asked me why, I then took a standard paperback book, held it up to my ear, and said hello. We instantaneously realized the phones size was ridiculous. I don’t want to sund like a fan boy but I really think that the size of the iPhone is nearly perfect. I have no trouble getting to any part of the...

Feng Shui at Work  →
Really interesting post. (via The Geeks Companion) It would be interesting to see a whole post on the Feng Shui of the cubicle.  All these ancient Chinese ideologies and whatnot always seemed intruiging to me. Everyone has probably heard of “feng shui” at one point or another, but few probably know exactly how to apply it. Apply it to places like, for instance, one’s desk....

Clear for iPhone →
I read a few reviews of Clear for iPhone a new todo list app for iOS. I didn’t think I need another one but wanted to play around with it so I downloaded it for 99 cents. I think Ben Brooks sums up where Clear can fit into any workflow.  Brooks writes:  The biggest question for me is: where do I use Clear if I am already using OmniFocus for everything? Within 5 minutes I found my answer:...

What I've Learned About Smart People.
tmac721: Going to Harvard means I have the very unique opportunity to be around a lot of smart people. Now, when I say “smart people,” I don’t mean that guy who always wins trivia night. I mean, blazingly intelligent individuals who are regarded as the pre-eminent scholars in their field. It’s pretty amazing to pass by Turing Award winners and leading political science scholars grabbing a...
