I struggle keeping tiny pieces of information together on my Mac. Stuff that I want to keep, but not stuff that is useful in my everyday workflow. I’ve been using Evernote since it was first introduced. In my opinion this is the coolest Web 2.0 software ever. It works on the Mac and iPhone (also Windows and Windows Mobile—if you are into that kinda thing). Evernote is a super-advanced notebook. You can use it to keep track of your notes and web clippings just like other notebook software. The coolness enters when you upload a photo with text. It can be text in a nice font, handwriting or scribbles on a paper. Evernote scrubs your uploaded text and makes it completely searchable! You can access your notes through the client software or through your webbrowser. Evernote has become my collection box for all things! Try out their generous free account and save your notes forever!

After I committed to a GTD lifestyle I started discovering that my next actions lists were packed! So I created a FileMaker Database to keep track of those actions that were repetitive. In the real world we call this “habits.” Well, that lasted several months, but I kept running into the same problem. My database looks like trash and it is not fun updating my habits.

Yesterday, I (re)stumbled on the site Joe’s Goals. I love the simple look and the ease of use. Completing each goal gives you points. The ability to share your goals with others also gives me a big kick in the dooper to keep up with my habits. If you are like me, and you start things without finishing them, then check out Joe’s Goals.

I love to compete. Maybe you have some of the same goals and you can challenge me to score more points! Bring it on!

Well, I took the plunge and signed up for a Facebook Account. In my opinion the whole Facebook craze is just a redesigned online high school popularity contest. I simply joined because of The Wilds of the Rockies Group. So far I am still an old fashioned blogger and I am not into the new-fangled online fads of all the kids these days. I also pledge never to become so addicted to Facebook that I am willing to loose my job over it. Wait a minute, I don’t have a steady job so I guess it doesn’t matter.

Although I prefer using the ESV Bible Online for my internet Bible I am sometimes dissappointed by its lack of options. Enter—eBible. An online Bible that is chock-full of Web 2.0 features. All the way from AJAX to tagging. eBible presents the Bible in a clean interface rather than an out-of-date interface like Bible Gateway or a cluttered interface such as StudyLight.org. This Web 2.0 program makes the Bible fun and easy to use. However, don’t let its simplicy fool you. eBible offers (more…)
