Just got back from the cottage a few hours ago, it was Awsome, and relaxing. I realized when I left that I hadn’t actually posted that I left, so I’m deeply sorry for that, but I only had 5 minutes on the net while I was up there, so I wasn’t able to ammend the [...]

Wow, lots of interesting conversation over on Tom’s entry about the linknotes plugin. Whether you use linknotes, or not is all a matter of taste, and what the links purpose is. How do you use links, and what for?
Some people would like to gather all their links in one place, which may be helpful [...]

Well, one day I had a sudden thought. Businesses have known for a long time that they can improve their position enormously by concentrating on the key 20 percent of activities. But why can’t people do the same? It turns out that we can. We can make our lives enormously better by doing less. The [...]

Well, its been a week since I quit drinking pop:”Want to stop Pop(The original post I made when I stopped drinking pop)”:http://jeremycurry.com/archives/2005/08/01/want-to-stop-pop/ , cold turkey.
