Tuesdays are open loop days at SimpleProductivity blog.
- How many alerts are pinging at you? Can you do anything about them at the time? If not, consider getting rid of them. From Lifehacker's "Turn Off All Your Alerts–Except the Immediately Actionable Ones"
- I'm not sure this isn't obvious, but it is best to only get notifications of those things that are important. From Lifehacker's "Perfectly Prune Your Notifications to Stop Your Phone from Constantly Bugging You"
- This is a fabulous way to build self-watering planters. My mother used to do this with standard pots…a string in the bottom going into one of the drainage holes draws the water back up into the dirt. From Lifehacker's "Turn a Soda Bottle into a Worry-Free Self-Watering Planter"
- Wow. This looks too good to be true. I have got to try these! From Lifehacker's "Make Your Own Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups with Tin Foil and a Mug"
- I never knew this was possible, bit it does work, and with the iPad and iPod Touch as well. From Lifehacker's "This Is How You Should Secure Your iPhone"
- This is cool. Imagine being able to spread REAL butter straight out of the fridge…definitely going on my want list! From Alltop's "Butter just got better with the Toastie Knife – Holy Kaw!"
- An email processing plan from Unclutterer's "Your email inbox is not a filing cabinet"
- One way to make yourself feel better is to connect with those around you. Tiny Buddha has an article on this at "Are You Shut Down and Disconnected?"
