Tynan, Thanks for the suggetion about GTD (Getting Things Done). I bought it from your Amazon links so I hope you made a buck or two. I'm really enjoying the book.
I also thought I'd pass along this little gem I found. I assume you use Firefox and Gmail. Have you seen the GTDGmail Extension for Firefox? It's pretty badass. Check it out: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3209
Cheers man!
