Last night I made the trip from my home in the Denver area to Ft. Collins to present some of my thoughts and lessons on productivity and the base of what I want to provide this blog and the reasons I created it. The meetup page is here.
I promised to provide a listing of resources for those present (and anyone else who finds this useful).
The outline and core of what I presented is given in this blog post:
These are some of my other blog posts I brought up (mostly linked from the above post as well):

- Todo Lists Suck out Your Soul
- You do not want notifications of new email
- My thoughts on the Pomodoro Technique
These are some of the tools and resources I brought up:
- Followup.cc
