App Inventor

Mark Shead — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 04:26:03 +0000

If you want to make applications for your android phone, but don’t know how to code, checkout App Inventor. It is kind of like Apple Automator, but for Android devices. It is getting a lot of use in education, but looks like it could be useful for anyone who wants to be able to do something automatically on their phone.

Beware of the Linen Cocktail Napkin

Mark Shead — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 20:48:04 +0000

Beware of the Linen Cocktail Napkin is a brilliant post by Gretchen over at the Happiness Project. It talks about how we often buy things because of who we want to be instead of who we actually are. It is an excellent read and very worth your time.

Popular Book – Personal MBA

Mark Shead — Thu, 26 May 2011 13:28:49 +0000

I was just reviewing some stats from Amazon and it looks like the most popular book for readers of this site is The Personal MBA. If you missed it, be sure to read through our review of The Personal MBA.

Statistically speaking, there is a very high probability you’ll enjoy it. It is the type of book that is very relevant regardless of what industry you work in and regardless of what position you hold.

Apple’s Patent on Destroying Productivity

Mark Shead — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 15:48:05 +0000

Apple has a patent for displaying ads in an operating system. Basically, ads would pop up and prevent you from doing work every once in awhile. The patent shows a mechanism where the ads could be delayed for 10 minutes or you could view one immediately so it won’t interrupt you for a bit longer. What do you think? Are people so accustomed to being interrupted during work that they would accept something like this?

Evernote Book

Mark Shead — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 15:05:58 +0000

Brett Kelly has written a book called Evernote Essentials. If you’ve been considering using Evernote, this Evernote book is the guide you’ll want to makes you are getting the most out of it. The PDF is well illustrated and covers a lot of the details that you probably won’t discover on your own. It took me about 3 minutes of skimming through the book to discover 5 huge timesavers that I didn’t previously know about. The book isn’t just limited to Evernote. It shows you how to integrate other services as well. For example, there are detailed instructions showing how to set up Gmail to automatically log receipts from Amazon purchases into Evernote. The PDF book is $25 and is highly recommended.
