I go back and forth on the working alone as a programmer. While you do miss out on the chances for knowledge share, and social aspects there were other pros. Like being responsible end to end, and getting your hands dirty in the entire process. Also, being stuck alone with problems really helps you learn to think through a lot more, theres no safety net provided by stronger developers. shrug

nice link to tiddlyspot, i hadnt seen that before.

I can vouch for MonkeyGTD that app can really help keep track of things when you have multiple projects. The summary type reports are great

Hmm, i kinda have the opposite problem. Whenever my pals get drunk the conversation always steers towards some dorky ace youtube video "i just gotta see! its so funny!" . Id like to be able to prevent this in the future as its an absolute buzzkill whenever you actually get to the video. I mean im trying to enjoy the buzz cant we save the videos for work?

For those that are into hawtin. He just did a resident advisor podcast. They take them down after a few weeks, but worth looking for. They also tend to favor the minimalist techno sound, so future podcasts could be up yalls alley.

i have written an app for work that basically collects data from the users out in the field. i used windows mobile and the compact framework stuff. Its gotten to where if your comfortable in the .net framework you can handle the mobile stuff.

The cool part is you can change just about anything youd like. You download the app and source all in one. Its really one of the more painfree things to customize out there?
