Dreams

Hold fast to dreams, For if dreams die,
Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams. For if dreams go,
Life is a barren field Covered with snow.

Do you want to put the internet to work for you, and not the other way around? IFTTT has a start of an answer. IFTTT stands for If This Then That, a developer's way to say that you can program conditional actions to be performed automatically when they are triggered by a specified event. You can create "recipes" such as post a video to my blogger blog whenever I favorite a video on YouTube; send email to mom whenever I tag an article in Pocket with the tag "food"; add the attachments to any email to my Dropbox, etc... With an ever growing number of "channels" you can trigger, the variety of personal combination you can create is almost endless.  

Does your email inbox looks like your messed up room as a teenager? Well, mine did, until I fell in love with Unroll.me. It acts like a maid helping you with that virtual housekeeping. It will detect all the subscription type emails that flood to your inbox and propose you to choose from 3 option for each subscription: unsubscribe, "roll up" into one Unroll.me email, or keep in inbox. Simple, and it works: as of today, this service helped me unsubscribe to 280 irrelevant newsletters and subscription, compile 223 more subscriptions into a daily rollup email (each email typically contains a dozen snippets of these subscriptions) and keep 50 in inbox only.

Have you ever dreamed of creating your own app or website but feel blocked because you don't know how to draw or use any drawing tool? Then, you feel the same way I do before I discovered Mockflow. It is a web-based wireframing tool that will help you create mockups of what you want your app or website to look like, and it is pretty damn good. Simple, with many standard components that you can drag from a library and drop to your project. You can change colours, fonts, and of course texts. You can duplicate pages to save time. I am really hoping this tool will help me craft some great mockups and kickstart projects faster than ever.   

Ever notice how people texting at night have that eerie blue glow?

Or wake up ready to write down the Next Great Idea, and get blinded by your computer screen? During the day, computer screens look good—they're designed to look like the sun. But, at 9PM, 10PM, or 3AM, you probably shouldn't be looking at the sun.

F.lux fixes your computer screen lighting so that he does not prevent you from having a good night sleep. Awesome.

Controlling, or at least being able to understand where and how much you spend is an interesting topic. Many mobile application propose to log in, and I have tried many, but not any succeeds at making it simple, useful and customized as Toshl. Just set up tags for your spending categories, "flat", "sport", "lunches", "leisure", and then quickly key in every expense on a daily basis. After a few weeks, you will quickly get a great view of where your mouth is... Better, even, the ability to set budgets against certain categories, so that you can watch your spending in anytime!

Do you text to much? Do you have big, slow fingers unfit for high speed texting? MightyText can help you by enabling you to write and send your texts from your laptop/computer without touching your phone! It's quite amazing to be able to do that, it saves a lot of time. The Scheduler feature looks promising too, I can see many applications: never forget to wish happy birthday, remind people certain things at certain date and times, etc...

Empirical Business School - Denial

Today I learned that:
However damaging it can be for one's ego, recognizing that you have been fu#$ed can help you not to waste additional time & money.

Just take the pain in, acknowledge it and move on.  

(I have to say, that I was not the victim this time, my boss was, and being an external observer helped me noticed that very well)
