This is a long-overdue post for me. I even promised to write this post tomorrow, five weeks ago. But, at long last, this is the full explication of how it is that I get things done.
The first thing I should tell you is that this is an ever-evolving system. There are a few things, hardware and software, that have been around for a while, but there’s also a rapidly revolving door of applications, gadgets, and all sorts of things that come and go from my desk. What I’m sharing here is a snapshot, a look into the things that make me tick and keep me ticking right now.
I share these things not because they’re unique, or even particularly interesting. I do it because I’ve gotten so much from reading how other people organize, get things done, and work – this is me giving back, so to speak. And here we go!

I’m about eight months into owning a Mac computer, and I can’t imagine using anything else. It took a while to get optimized exactly how I wanted it (I had Windows down), but I’ve finally got it working exactly how I want it to work.
The operating system has a couple of nice touches, but isn’t actually that different anymore, particularly since Windows 7 came out. What makes Mac OS different is the developers, the applications that are released with an incredible attention to detail, beauty and simple functionality. I’ve tried a lot of these applications. I’m a serial tester and adopter anyway, and getting onto a new platform was like being a kid in a candy store. Or a geek in an Apple store…
