Some really nice features here. Would be great if Google could add some of these options to their rather pedestrian mobile app.

Yeah, definitely one of the classics in this area.

This book seems to come up such a lot in productivity articles. I keep meaning to pick it up. 'Flow' is such a happy accident most of the time; it'd be great to be able to anticipate or encourage it.

Ferriss gets a lot of flak from people who feel he should have showed them the road to effortless freedom from office-life, but as you say there's a lot to be gained from the book even if you only apply it piecemeal in the way that suits your lifestyle and goals.

That's a real endorsement. Get much feedback on it from new employees?

This sounds great but don't you usually need to have a credit card with a billing-address in that location?

I'm a bit of a dork about keyboards and I'd love to have one of these around to fidget with while I'm working.

I love using artificial background hum to nurture my productivity and used to use Coffitivity a lot. It's playing second-fiddle these days to Noisli which has a lot more options.

I only recently discovered that Tweetdeck works as both a web-app and a desktop application. I haven't noticed much of a difference between the two. Any reason to prefer one over the other?

It's reasonable to expect sites like this to be off-base with many (if not most) of their suggestions, but they can often be quite good for challenging you with clothing that you wouldn't ordinarily consider wearing but which might actually look pretty good.

IT Crowd had all kinds of good stuff in it:)

I know what you mean. I'm not the worst when it comes to OCD, but that's outrageous. Can't believe anyone would be able to put up with so much junk on their system.

If this is a genuine screen-shot, it looks horrific. Hard to imagine anyone can live like that. I suppose people vary in their tolerance of clutter.

This usually works really well with email. A lot of the time it saves the recipient from having to go through the remainder of the message at all. Good tip:)

There's also state-of-mind at play. I usually perform best (exercise and otherwise) when I have a clear and concrete sense in mind of my goals and objectives.

Yeah, Evernote's fantastic for this kind of thing. Have only recently picked up a Fujitsu scanner for the precise purpose of more speedily filing things away to Evernote and tossing out the paper remnants.

Nice tip:) I'd also recommend Mendeley which is available both on the web and as a desktop application that integrates with Microsoft Word and manages academic references in a similar fashion.

That's great. Thanks for the input:)

Any chance dehydration or caffeine-withdrawal might be causing the headaches?

True. That makes sense.
