Brinkhurst Design - Getting Personal

New Kid On The Block

That’s right, the new kid on the block is Google’s newest creation. The Chrome web browser. What is it about some companies, especially those in the technology industry, that inspire enthusiasm and love, not only among those who work for them but the millions of customers as well? Is it just me or is it strange how people who wouldn’t dream of falling in love with their bank or local supermarket develop such an attachment to products and technologies that emerge from companies such as Apple, Nokia, Nintendo, and (dare I say it,) even Microsoft.

Google

Over the last decade or so Google has be one of the largest of these inspiring companies with one of the biggest fan bases ever for an on-line based company. It all started when Google came out and was instantly so much better at its job as a search engine than any of its competitors, not only that but the fact that this engine was seen to be the smart, scrappy, youngster taking on the big boys.

Untill I have fixed these two problems I will be keeping you up-to-date here on my personal blog.

Don't forget the milk. Remember it.

There are many tools out there to help you organise your time and keep track of your daily tasks. There is one tool that stands out from the crowd however. You guessed it. Remember The Milk.
Remember the milk is one of the Internet's most powerful tools and is the best way to manage your tasks.

Why the most powerful?

Well the biggest reason is that rtm is able to integrate with many of your other online services, as well as run on your BlackBerry, iPhone or iPod touch.

Google Calendar	Twitter
Offline access	BlackBerry
Gmail	iPhone / iPod touch

"Remember The Milk reinvents the to-do list"

Not only is rtm able to integrate with you online services and your portable device but it allows you to add tasks via email and even your normal mobile phone!
Rtm is also able to pinpoint where each of your tasks is set to take place an show it to you on the map. Nice little feature in my opinion, I often look out for a small café or restaurant so that on the way back I can treat myself to something nice for completing all the little, and not so little, things I needed to do.

Share your tasks

Share, send and publish tasks and lists with your contacts or the world. Remind your significant other to do their tasks. There is a down side to this though. Mother keeps sending me chores to do while she is at work. I think she forgets that I have work to do as well. Even if I do work from home.

Life without school and a job

2008-07-15T05:58:00.001-07:00

Its a grotty Tuesday afternoon and all is dull in the world of me. No school is amazing. Amazingly boring! I have been to all the local workplaces that are looking for jobs and it seems that none of them really are. So it is now that I realise that having a job or school to go to every day, more to the point having a routine, is a key part to a happy life.

Luckily for me though I have got a job on the go but it is one that is very unreliable. Making a website for a hair and make-up business. I have also been very busy making a nice large collection of backgrounds which will soon be ready for download from my up and coming website.

Well more news as it comes, but with my life where it is at the moment you may be waiting a while.

That's all from me. Enjoy life, I know I will! (At some point anyhow)
