Most of us have probably tried one or another of the online whiteboards out there. The problem is generally that the drawings produced on them look awful; who can draw neatly with a mouse? Dabbleboard has a neat solution to this problem: it’s smart enough to recognize common shapes and redraw them for you neatly. Get even a rough oval down with your mouse, and a smooth one appears; the same works for rectangles, diamonds, ...

Okay, if that headline leaves you scratching your head you are probably not alone. After all, doing nothing hardly seems like a way to get anything done, however, it is my aim to convince you that at times, doing nothing is the most appropriate next action. As you know if you’ve been reading GTDtimes with any regularity, I’m fairly new to practicing GTD and I make no claims of being an authority on the subject. ...

As we predicted, Technorati now joins them with the launch of Technorati Media later this morning (the site will be password protected until 9 am PST today), their own ...

Google udostępniło nową wersję pakietu Gears, która teraz jest kompatybilna z nadchodzącą wersją Firefoksa 3.

Today, many of the popular sites aimed to deliver minute-by-minute updates to Apple CEO Steve Jobs' keynote, as well as some social networking sites extremely popular among the technology elite, slowed to a crawl under the rush of traffic from Mac and iPhone fans hoping to get a glimpse of Cupertino's latest products. Sites as diverse as TechCrunch to Twitter buckled under the pressure, while others, like MacRumors Live, Engadget and FriendFeed, maintained stability, gaining ...

Today I attended the XMediaLab event in Wellington New Zealand (my hometown). Tom Duterme, who is in the New Business Development group at Google in Mountain View, was here talking about innovation. Tom's job is to travel around the world looking for acquisitions for Google, so it was interesting to hear what things he looks for in startups. Imagination is key, he advised -- see the Einstein quote at the end of this post. But ...

As Ruby on Rails devotees converge upon RailsConf 2008 (and the simultaneously held un-conference CabooseConf), performance startup FiveRuns is launching TuneUp, a “social” debugging tool for Rails applications. The TuneUp plugin tells you specifically where a RoR app is running slowly. If you’ve coded a few ridiculously inefficient database queries, it’ll point out just which ones. But debugging is not always so simple, so TuneUp does something sorely needed in a world dominated by Google ...

“But what minutes! Count them by sensation, and not by calendars, and each moment is a day.” - Benjamin Disraeli For tens of thousands of years, human beings didn’t have clocks. They lived, amazingly, by the sun and the moon and seasons and the needs and rhythms of their bodies. The clock is a very very recent invention, and even more recent is our modern society’s slavish adherence to the dictatorship of the clock. Only ...
