How to Be Creative as a Podcaster [The Daily Saint]
I generally take some time each afternoon to process phone messages and wrap up any emails that need attention before I head home. If I need some background noise or am looking for some food for thought, I’ll often listen to a podcast.

GTD Cafe: New Gadgets to Help You Get Things Done [The Daily Saint]
My first PDA was the original Palm Pilot, before the company was forced to drop the "pilot" from their name. A greyscale screen and absolutely no curb appeal, that first PDA was like a diamond in my hand. The year was 1998.

Here’s to You Mr. Palm Treo Person [The Daily Saint]
I can remember my first PDA, one of the original Palm Pilots. With as much aesthetic appeal as a 1980’s Dodge K-Car, the original Palm was clunky at best and featured more of the color gray than anyone should endure. Visual appeal aside, the original Palm struck a chord for many of us interested in [...]
