Code, watching Keira play soccer, hanging out with the family. Today was a pretty good day. Tried to scratch together a list of items that I’d like to hand off to a virtual assistant. That quick exercise yielded 25 things, I might need a fleet of assistants or a reality check. Probably the reality check.
Interesting tidbits from around the web
- RSS Feed + GeekTool – teh awesome. I needed a way to focus on a couple RSS feeds without all the noise in NetNewsWire, specifically my Github and Pivotal Tracker dashboards. I had a problem with https in the beginning but simply dropping the SSL made things work like a charm.
- Wave back channel in conferences – sounds like a pretty good use.
- 10 Droid Apps – PC World’s list of a starter set of apps. A few of them looked really cool; Twidroid, Compare Everywhere and Key Ring.
- Missing Drawer – We got some feedback on BDDCasts to use something like ProjectPlus to deal with TextMate’s drawer. I’ve never had much problem with the drawer, sure it opens on a side depending on space, but meh. I tried out Missing Drawer and so far I’m liking the feel of it.
- Nice Find – Continuing with the TextMate theme I wanted to see what other useful plugins were out there and came across this, asynchronous find in project that can use git-grep. The other one in this category would be “ack in project”.
