Getting Things Done by David Allen

Wallstrip Eye Candy

I just found out about this site today and previewed some of their clips. Today's clip is particularly funny. It helps tremendously that the interviewer is appealing - hello, eye candy - and amusing.

Enjoy, I know I did!

Being a Coghead

So I signed up to be a beta user of this site. I must say that they've come up with an eloquent application. The business problem most users, whether a home user or corporate user, have is creating applications to that meet their business requirements but no having the technical know-how to get this done. Well Coghead has nailed a solution right on the head for this problem. They've created a marketplace for users to submit widgets that other users can apply in building their custom application. As a web application software engineer this makes me think that if our industry doesn't really get their act together and start providing solutions to our business customers in a more efficient manner then it might be time to really search as to what we are doing wrong.

I suggest everyone check it out and definitely take advantage of what they are offering as opposed to "re-engineering the wheel" and creating an application that can be found on Coghead for pennies on the dollar.

Instant Bull
