I recently started using... Personal Organization: I've been quietly enjoying using Backpack by 37signals for organizing my brain. So far, it's been great for tasks and goal setting. I'm impressed that the tool was not locked down to one specific idea. It's very flexible and acts much like a wiki and a blog. The reminders that can be sent to your phone and email need a little bit of work. I haven't found a way to snooze or find them after they are sent, yet. Goal Setting: Take 5 minutes and start your goal list at 43things. As they say, "Discover what's important, make it happen, share your progress. Find your 43 things." It is a joy of a website to work with. Here are my goals, so far. 10:17:05 AM    comment []  trackback []

Ryan Steadman I'm strangely drawn to Ryan Steadman's style: wave sharing a square "Ryan Steadman uses the stark backdrops of sharp-edged urban buildings to isolate the small-scale human dramas of the quotidian. Steadman's background apartment towers are flat and modernist, looming large behind the tiny expressionist figures that people his scenes."
