I See Double People - Google Contact Sync Has Issues

Nothing short of seeing Dead People brings chills like an address book full of duplicate entries. It was so exciting to see that Google had added address boook / contact list sync to their existing mobile calendar sync tool for the Blackberry. But as this title suggests, I have had some issues.

Apple iPhone - Blackberry, Cingular and all my other toys?

Okay I bought my first iPod spring '07, so I am not a huge adopter of Apple's toys (6 months later the 8gb video iPod came out!!!). But I am really loving some of the features of Apple's new iPhone.

Cingular 3G Globetrotter GT MAX wireless card

I have been using this Cingular 3G Globetrotter GT MAX wireless card for one year now. I am pulling 1.6mb/280kb from my house!!!!! Antenna retracts into device for easy laptop storage.

The retractable antenna does have a draw back... it snaps out rather then break but if you loose it, as happened to me, it will cost you $75 to replace. I travel a lot and I would say that I can get a good reception about 95% of the time. Read more

Time Management, GTD and Life Hacking

As a society we spend so much time and energy getting information into and from emails, notes, websites, lectures, chats, blogs and news feeds. But what is all of that worth if we forget what to do next (task management) or we can't find something we had previously found?

Content Management, Knowledge Management and Information Management are all becoming huge 'industry' buzz words but that means nothing if we fail to teach and provide solutions for the 'individual' user/employee. I went to school and received a B.S. in Management in Information Systems, but not one class discussed a micro-system for the user/student. Do any highschools, colleges or corporations seriously teach this critical problem solving issue? Read more
