In "How to manage long breaks in your software side projects" [Signal vs. Noise], 37signals Ryan Singer shows how he uses Backpack to manage an on-again, off-again side-project he manages. I make a single Backpack page for each project with two lists and some notes. The two lists are ‘To-Do’ and ‘Debt.’ The ‘To-Do’ list is for things I really, truly, honestly plan to do next. I keep it very short, always less than five ...

A tag is a simple label or keyword you can use to categorize your Backpack pages any way you want. Then when you click a tag you can see all the other pages that have that tag. It’s a great way to keep your pages loosely grouped in ways that make sense to you. For example, if you have a page called “Sales meetings” you might want to tag that page “business, meeting, sales, office” ...

The block shape of a LEGO makes a perfect shape for a backpack. The real bonus are the studs that are each separately zippered for individual storage. I am a bit surprised that pickpockets haven’t marketed something like this themselves. Product Page (£13.99, not available in US/Canada)

Filed under: Items, Wrath of the Lich KingThere are two things that every WoW character has: a hearthstone, and a backpack. Well, some bank alts might have destroyed their hearthstone, actually, but absolutely everybody has that 16-slot backpack occupying their first bag slot. 16 slots made some sense back when that was also the biggest size bag that wasn't crazy expensive, back in classic WoW (Traveler's Backpack/Mooncloth Bg). But now that 16-slot bags are dirt-cheap, ...

She wants shoulder bag, but it needs to be cute, light and simple. She's desirous of a shoulder bag, or possibly a backpack.

Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing? "Twitter, as applied to business (aka 37signal's Backpack Journal)" likens the Backpack Journal to the popular tool. A lot of people don’t get Twitter. A lot. They ask me why I love it, use it, and why I tweet so much. I think it’s one of ...

If you’ve ever been backpacking, you’ve probably heard people boast that their pack weighs 50 or 60 lbs. Those days are over. With a little knowledge, it is possible for anyone to reduce their pack weight to a comfortable 25 or 30 lbs. and still bring along some luxury items. The chief benefit of bringing less gear is that you’ll be able to hike farther, see more, and have more fun (and take less ibuprofen). ...

Filed under: Fashion, Health, Home, Green on CampusPVC is a material that is unfortunately widely found in products that people use every day. Often referred to as vinyl, PVC releases mercury, dioxins and phthalates. Among other problems, these chemicals can cause cancer, reproductive issues, and can harm the immune system. PVC is often used as a coating, especially for waterproofing, and is therefore found in many plastics. When the consumer unknowingly recycles these items, they ...

Backpack has always allowed you to share pages via email, but the person on the receiving end had to have a Backpack account before they could view the page. We were never really happy about how that worked. We finally did something about it. Big thanks to Jeremy for making this happen. Now you can share Backpack pages with anyone in the world via email — even if they don't have a Backpack account. They ...

Filed under: 精彩杂录, 交通相关[经由Engadget Deutschland] 如果这个概念能够进行量产的话，相信应该有不少的市场，尤其现在折叠式脚踏车正红。这款折叠式脚踏车的设计概念相当特别，当你骑完之后，可以折成背包，来背在身后。不用担心它很重，因为有许多本来是采用金属组件，都以塑料代替，有效减轻重量，大约只有5.5公斤；也不用担心它很大，折成背包后的样子，全长六十公分，也是能够接受的范围内，看来很适合每个人。（OS：真的吗？如果这个产品真的能量产的话，其实我更担心它的承载重量）Continue reading 折叠式背包脚踏车Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
