• Defend your computer while you get a cup of coffee: Laptop Alarm 2.0 beta

  “You’re at the coffee shop working on your computer, and you feel the need to get up and get a cup of joe… Your table is just out of sight of the counter, and you don’t want to pick up your PC and take it with you…what to do?”

  Honestly, I’ve been looking for something like this for ever. I hate leaving my laptop unattended, but I hate looking like an idiot bringing it up to the counter. And what if you’ve got to take a bio-break? You know what everyone in the room thinks when you bring your laptop into the bathroom with you…

Featured Windows Download: Evolution Brings Linux Office Suite, Exchange Support to Windows

This is good to see. I’m always happy to hear of a great Linux app being ported to Windows instead of the other way around. Evolution is more like the MS Office you’d see in your office, rather than the Outlook + Word/Excel/Powerpoint you’d purchase (cough, cough) for your home PC.

Be sure to read the comments over at LifeHacker. Evolution for Windows is still, er, evolving.

On the train headed home. I think I had a record number of meetings today. Somewhere in there I think I’m supposed to actually do some software development. But then again. whatever I’m supposed to work on will change after the next meeting. So, by not doing any work I’m really increasing my productivity through the lack of re-work I would otherwise have to to do. Does anyone else get the impression that this isn’t how it’s supposed to be?

clipped from www.readwriteweb.com Are you the only person at work who likes to read blogs? Is it your job to sell things to people who would probably throw you out of their offices if you said the word “twitter?” Are you trying to reach audiences who’ve never visited a social networking website because they’ve heard those sites are used by no one but virus peddlers, sex fiends and 14 year old losers? Sometimes it feels like social media is just not relevant to the people you’re trying to reach. That’s a common dilemma, but we believe it doesn’t have to be that way.

clipped from lifedev.net Open Sourcing Your Creativity Creativity is something that’s not easily contained. In fact, it’s contagious. When creative people start putting their heads together, some amazing things happen. It’s a rare occasion when an incredible idea is solely created by one person. 99% of the time the problem isn’t someone stealing your idea, it’s you not actually doing it. So what better way to put an idea into motion than having more people help? Instead of using traditional methods like emailing ideas back and forth, try using one of the many online collaboration apps The important thing to remember is that the sharing of ideas is quick, is a low-barrier of entry for other collaborators, and is easy to share. Realize you can’t do everything on your own Allow for the free exchange of ideas Trust other people Pretty soon you’ll have people questioning every aspect of your idea. This is a necessary and healthy aspect of collaboration
