The new @asana is 👍. A much cleaner interface, and a dashboard that gives me a significantly better overview of my tasks. Awesome!
I've literally reclaimed 20% of my hard disk just by deleting cache files. App developers: a little more restraint please?
Convincing every member of my immediate family to have a phone switched on and with the ringer activated is an uphill battle.
I think Joe's absolutely right. Focus on the thing you do best; outsource your other problems. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/exponential-organizations-juozas-kaziukėnas

If you care more about the people in your town or your country than anywhere else, I think you're absolutely doing the 21st century wrong.
I really like the look of I Smile Back. http://youtu.be/YIBqq-AQcE0
The new Tesla has a bioweapon defense mode. Innocent question: how did they test it?

@funnymonkey @audreywatters Still? Oh well. I feel like this is a conversation that needs to have some form of alcohol attached to it.
@funnymonkey @audreywatters ... and having spent a year making sure an interface works well on mobile, slapping it in a frame really sucks.
