Skitch – A Picture Uploading App (and So Much More…)
I’ve had the beta – Skitch for a few months without really using it.
From the Plasq.com website:
So – this is what I’m now going to use for all of my screenshots, uploading my photo, capturing chat (I’m thinking of Kyte.tv chats). I can see this becoming a daily ritual, especially as it takes the time that I’ve used to illustrate my posts and articles and cuts it by 2/3rds.
So sign up for the public beta and enjoy a quick, easy and feature-rich graphics program.

Web Runner – For Those That Just Can’t Help Themselves!
“Distraction Free GTD: 32 Todo List Web Applications”
I was just looking through my Clippings on NetNewsWire, which I use to save articles I want to read, just not that second, and I saw this post from Internet Duct Tape.
Now I love Safari and I can stop myself (I can, really!) from browsing the Web as a distraction from work. But for those who can’t – there’s Web Runner. There’s a Distraction Free GTD Web bundle – so for those who can not resist – go forth and browse no more.
Me – I’m off to enjoy all that 43Folders (addicted to the new format – and Merlin is really on stride!) has to offer – on my own time.

Different Ways to Update Blogs
I’m starting to look at different ways to update my blogs. As I my professional life gets more intense, I need ways of updating my web presence that easily integrates into my workflow.
A new medium that I’m experimenting in is video. Last weekend I bought a FlipCamera Ultra. It’s a really small camcorder that can fit into my bag that I can use to do video blog updates on the fly, short interviews and conference transcriptions. And a built-in USB connector and software makes uploading a snap. I’ve been carrying it everywhere and working on how best to use it. I love working in this new medium and I think it’s going to make my updates easier and more frequent.
I’m working on my closeup!
The other thing that is making things much easier is Jott. Since I started using it, Jott has made thing much easier.
Using Jott, I:
– Update my blogs
– Update Twitter
– Create Groups to update many people at once
– Send Jotts to individuals
– Update my 30Boxes calendar
– Update Jott from my desktop.
– Creating reminders and tasks across Folders
I Jott to myself, I Jott to my friends, I Jott to my collegues, I Jott to my blogs. I’m seeing more and more people in my network Jott-ing. Brian Solis at PR 2.0 just wrote a thoughtful post on how Jott impacts his productivity. Glad to see he’s Jott-ing instead of texting-while-driving!
These are two of the services/products I’m using to help me Get Things Done. I’m looking to forward to tracking how these continue to adapt to my workflow.
