Being brief

It has been interesting, I'll say that. At first it felt like a spacewalk gone bad - I had let go of the rope (actually the rope had been yanked out of my hands) and was drifting off into space... Then I realized I had a whole lot of company, which is a slight comfort but not a solution. But I digress.

So, what I learned today is this: creative people are continually working things over and cool, goofy little tools and toys continue to pop up. Keep your eyes open and you'll see them, and with a little reflection may even be able to put them to good use. Or, at least, to use.

For example, a poll done through a Twitter application. It's unbelievably easy to set up, the price is right (free, that is), and it seems to work. Here, take a look. In fact, I'd appreciate it if you would vote!




And there are simple diversions, too. I stumbled across the "Gears of Doom" and made it to level 12. A friend claims to have reached level 20. I'll believe it when I get there. Give it a try, but allow a good 20 minutes or more in case you get hooked.

So now it's back to work for me. Meanwhile, have some fun!
