I recently purchased the book Getting Things Done, by David Allen. I've just started reading it and I'm surprised how similar my own personal method is to GTD. I have done some things for many years because they worked. This book is sure helping me to understand why.

There are some major differences however. Some things I like better in GTD, but some of the things are tailored just for me - that I have proven in use over and over again. Again, that may just be for myself, though.

I'll post the differences between my system and GTD once I've finished the book..

We ran into a problem this last Monday (7/9/07) where the Google Maps stopped working on some of our page. After figuring out why some pages were working and some weren't it turns out that Google made a change to their API.

Basically, you must now call map.setCenter() to initialize the map before calling any of the other methods that set preferences to it such as map.enableDragging(), map.enableDoubleClickZoom().

Actually, the only one that I noticed that caused the map to not display at all was map.enableDragging().

Although, I'm always irritated by good bloggers posting their own feelings regarding politics, because they are usually wrong, I just couldn't resist posting one myself. This is from Ann Coulter at http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=21404.

Interesting article too.
