If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!I do work in a lot of different areas on teh internets. And each job I do has different effects on my mind. I have to enter that job’s mind mode for a short or long period of time. [...]

Doing one thing at a time. It’s a nice concept and may seem easy, but I guess it depends on how you handle things. I know it works. I know the sense of accomplishment that comes with actually finishing something. But that does not stop me from getting caught in the whirlwind of multitasking.
The computer [...]

I cover a lot of topics and read a lot of blogs. Up until recently, I had them all in one folder in my feed reader. Then I broke them up into folders. That took some thought and until then, I really had no idea what all my interests are. After that two hour organizing [...]

I always plan to add images to every [...]

I have said many times before that I don’t get writer’s block. No, I just have days where anything I type turns magically into crap right before my eyes and no matter how much I beat it with a stick, it still is not that great.
There are days when I can write article after article [...]

And I don’t mean keeping a laptop. I meaning having a place to write things down to get them out of your mind.
