• Big Merlin shares with us in this informative talk how he survives the data avalanche…”Last month, I premiered a new presentation at Macworld San Francisco 2008 called “Living with Data” (previously). Since this talk was part of the “Vision” track, I used the opportunity to start gathering some threads around the idea of time and attention that had been floating around my head for a while (I think you can see the genesis of some of this stuff in my IDEO visit).” (via 43 folders)

• File sharing via Twitter…”Twittershare lets mac users and web users upload files and share them via Twitter. While html links have worked for some time now, other features like emebedding video, sending files and other media have been limited. Third party apps like this one make it possible.

• The fine folks over at Unclutterer tells us how to prepare for tomorrows workday today…”At the end of the work day, I clean off my desk and then I organize everything that I need for the next day. For example, if I were to have a morning meeting, I’d have my agendas photocopied and in a labeled folder at the center of my desk. This way, if I were to be stuck in traffic or sick and attend the meeting over the phone, it’s easy for someone else in the office to grab the agendas and pass them out in my absence.” (via unclutterer)
