I've been a bit ill this week with a cold and sore throat and ear. I went to the doctors yesterday and was given two drips, some antibiotics and some throat lozenges. The drips are bit over the top but tey are used to administer some kind of medicine. Am starting to feel a lot better now although my ear is still sore. Have had some time off work as there's no way I could have taught and mostly I just lay in bed.

On Tuesday evening I had an interesting chat with a man in Shanghai who is interested in Lifehacking and GTD. We started by discussing linux distros and it kind of went downhill from there... still it was nice to geek out for a bit and I've offered to help him set up lifehack.cn, which could be fun. He also put me onto a site that gives you 1GB free storage space for files - useful for backup and accessing anywhere:

And, this week, Google Notebook is here, which looks pretty good despite not being able to tag stuff. Handy for collecting research from the web together and not a bad interface either.

PS. David makes a good point about the box link (see comments) - use that and help me on my way to a free account upgrade! What are you waiting for?

  1. perhaps something you sprayed on the bugs ... you may want to try something different next time ...

    or ...

    perhaps just a flu and you need to rest more ...

    hope you feel better soon!

    peace & harmony,

  2. you might want to mention that if people sign up to Box.net using that link, you'll get a free upgrade to their 'premium' subscription.
