Ok, finally finished my first audio books, David Allen’s Getting Things Done (GTD, post coming soon about this – very excited about it!) and the geek classic: 1984 by George Orwell. Once you get passed the initial “I’m a kid again, since I’m listening to audio books” stage, you’ll love it. And wow, you really have to read these books – no matter how busy you are. 1984 is just amazing and GTD is life changing – at least it was for me! More coming up about this soon, so grab the RSS feed if you don’t already have it…

I’ve often wondered ”What is taking up all my HD space?” – a natural cause of trying out a lot of different software and going crazy with my digital camera. A thing that has annoyed me many times in Windows XP is the lack of a quick overview of the size of each folder in Windows explorer. But there is a small application that takes care of this issue that I always end up installing on my Windows installations: Foldersize.

Following my post on which podcasts I prefer, I thought It would make sense for me to make a quick post on how to listen to them using your HTC Touch Diamond. At first I thought I could handle the whole process by only using my phone but we’re not quite there yet unfortunately. Here’s my setup along with podcast tip of the day: TV2 podcasts.

On my home laptop (Thinkpad X40), I use Google Chrome for browsing to see what it’s like. The speed is obviously very nice and I am really happy with the Omnibox – the address bar in Chrome. The suggestions and auto completions are very good and seem to be spot on every time.
Now, there has been a lot of talk about the security of Chrome. I haven’t had any issues in that area – the most dangerous part of Chrome is actually: The Omnibox…

As you may know, I spend 4 hours on the train every day. I have a 3 modem, so I can work and do online stuff when I’m there (highly recommend that modem btw). Now I use Google Analytics to see if anyone actually drop by this site once in a while but recently I discovered that people may get the wrong impression of what I’m doing if they look at names of the tabs that I have open…

..or at least, it has reached my phones. Within the last 4 days I have received an SMS on both my work mobile and my private mobile. Wonder how long they will stay in business…

We’re taking care of our neighbour’s puppy, Cofie, today – they claim it’s a Welsh Corgi but I am pretty sure there’s at least 10% Gremlin involved… Regardless, he’s very cute so I had to take a few pictures of him…

I must say that I’m amazed at the low number of people listening to podcasts. Surely you commute more than 20 minutes per day (four hours in my case) – why not use it as productively as possible? I keep up religiously with the following four podcasts.

I just received the first mail on the Jason Calacanis mailing list, which was really good e-mail with pro-tips for how to demo start-ups. I definitely recommend people signing up for the mailing list at https://my.binhost.com/lists/listinfo/jason. I can’t link to the mail obviously, so I thought I’d post it here (just received Jason’s permission in my inbox) for people to have a look at – as always, Jason knows what he’s talking about. If you’re not into the topic, the post is still worth reading just for the no-nonsense attitude, which is quite funny (e.g. “If your product demo takes more than five minutes to demo, it probably sucks.”).
