Friday App Review: NewsRack for iPad
This one will be quick since I haven’t had a ton of time to play on the iPad this week :(. NewsRack is a new RSS reader, fairly bare bones, but has excellent google reader support.

Graduating from Productivity Porn
I, like many nerd/creative types, can easily get caught in the foggy netherworld of organization. I’m not a particularly neat person, but I do spend a lot of time mentally reordering my thoughts and prioritizing my todos.
