2017
Attending my first GTD workshop today. Have been doing GTD for a long time and am looking to reinforce and deepen core concepts.
The David Lynch Documentary Kickstarter I backed in April 2012 with a delivery in May 2013 may finally get to me in June 2017! Better 4 years late than never? 🙃
Good morning espresso! ☕️
Thinking in Decades
This week I worked with Yahoo! customer support and deleted my Flickr account. I had deleted my Yahoo! account a couple of months ago when they had their second massive security notice of compromised accounts. When I got a notice letting me know that the Privacy Policy for Flickr was changing in association with the sale to Verizon I wanted to delete my account. I have no interest in Verizon hosting my photos, and frankly I don’t use Flickr anymore.
That was when I realized I had no way to access my Flickr account since the Yahoo! account was used to connect to it. I was happy thought that Yahoo! customer support was quick and made this easy to get done.
My Flickr account is no more now. I created that account probably a decade ago. Long before it ever became part of Yahoo!, back when Flickr was amazing and cool. Looking back this is a good reminder of how long our content lives online. Yet another example of how companies come and go and services come and go. To all of you using Facebook to keep family photos and pictures of your kids, think about this. This is why I feel so strongly about owning my content. It really isn’t that hard.
SiriKit supports tasks and OmniFocus 2 is on the slide? Yes please! 😍
Apple Pay person-to-person is going to be very significant. Opens up a lot of potentials and nice implementation right inside iMessage.
iMac Pro is impressive! Amazing specs that I doubt I could tax, but I sure want one… 😍
