If you’re someone who has ideas constantly pouring out of their head, no matter how lame or awesome, but can’t find a way to keep track of them all (and when you don’t want to carry around a notebook everywhere), you should benefit greatly from this post. For that last year or so I have been an avid fan of a web app called drop.io. To call it an online file management system would be an insult to the amount of innovation and thought that the drop.io team has put into their software.

A few weeks ago my Flickr RSS spat out a Tweet about how I had covered the back of my door with the entire year’s goals, daily, weekly, and monthly repeating tasks, and some financial tracking thrown in there as well. Original door here. On Sunday I realized that I could take the idea much further and decided I’d optimize the layout to a) cram more stuff in there and b) make it easier to read.

I can’t stand meetings. Meetings are supposed to be extremely short. They should act as quick status updates from all the various members of a team. Each individual states the status of their projects in a few short minutes and poses any questions they may have to the group. The group responds quickly, then you  move to the next team member.

With all of the social networks out there to keep up with, RSS feeds to follow, and multiple email inboxes that seem to never stay clean, keeping up with things online can make your thought patterns quite chaotic — especially if you’re focused on maintaining an online presence such as a blog or Twitter.

I tweeted a few days ago on the first of the New Year that I am refusing to call my intended accomplishments for 2009 “resolutions”. The term resolution is very open ended, rather vague and relatively unmeasurable.
