Post frequency has been low at MDV recently because I’ve been getting a lot done, and no I don’t need a book to teach me how to be productive with my time. I use my own system. The biggest helper in this whole process has been Basecamp, an online project and task management service.
I’m using the free account and it does a fine job for what I need it to do. With the free account you are allowed one project and that’s really all a single person needs. It’s pretty easy to manage my life under one overall project. I use messages to keep track of ideas or thoughts. Right now I have 7 to-do lists where I put down tasks that I need to accomplish. I have one to-do list for each of my 5 blogs, one for the next blog, and one I titled personal. The personal to-do list currently is used for everything not associated to one of my web sites. I’ll probably eventually break that down into a few other lists, but it seems to be working right now. I’m also using a writeboard to collaborate with my brother on a new web site idea. You don’t need a Basecamp account to use writeboards though, simply sign up at Writeboard and you can share ideas with multiple people.
