Professional Productivity lecture with Scott Hanselman (Part 2/3)

Here’s a description of Scott’s talk on Professional Productivity from GOTO Aarhus 2012: As information workers, we are asked to absorb even more information than ever before. More blogs, more documentation, more patterns, more layers of abstraction. Now Twitter and Facebook compete with Email and Texts for our attention, keeping us up-to-date on our friends dietary details and movie attendance second-by-second. Does all this information take a toll on your psyche or sharpen the saw? Is it a matter of finding the right tools and filters to capture what you need, or do you just need to unplug. Is ZEB (zero email bounce) a myth or are there substantive techniques for prioritizing your life on the web? Come see Scott’s famous “Scaling Yourself” talk, adapted to take only 15 minutes of your time!

Scott Hanselman has such a great sense of humor. I love it when he talks to other folks at Microsoft.

I'm a lousy programmer. However, I am less lousy than I was last year, and significantly less lousy than I was 20 years ago. Even still, there's a lot of crap on my GitHub and Bitbucket repos - but I'm totally OK with it.

Somehow, I don't think Scott has anything to worry about, but it's got me thinking.  I'm going to start using GitHub and Bitbucket more.  Any crap that is sitting in my dropbox repos that I feel (kind of) confident with, I'm putting up there.  Let the criticism flow.

And so it begins

It has been a very long time since I maintained a blog. I use to write up to 3 times a week on a range of topics but mostly technology and software development. But once I got onto Facebook and Twitter I lost the bug that kept me writing on my blog.

Recently Scott Hanselman wrote "Your words are wasted" which makes a great point that what you share on Facebook, Twitter and other Social Media services are lost and you give up ownership to someone else. You cannot easily find that tweet you made last month with the useful link to a great article. The same is true for Facebook, Path, Instagram and other services. Blogging under you own domain is the only way to go that allows you to keep your content and find it later.

So that is what I will restart doing here. Topics will stay close to software development and trends in the technology community with the primary focus being iOS and .NET platforms which are my primary platforms. Occasionally I may jump onto other topics such as FreeBSD and Open Source as well. I will tag content so if you just want to read about specific topics you can do so. And please consider blogging yourself. I'd like to read and reblog (Tumblr style) what you write.
