Quote of the day
Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Sun, 02/20/2005 - 16:21I stumbled over this quote over at the Online Social Networks conference. I thought it was a great quote, and would share it here:
Some problems are so complex that you have to be highly intelligent and well informed just to be undecided about them.

Submitted by Aldon Hynes on Fri, 02/18/2005 - 22:18Today, Kim, Miranda, Fiona and I went into New York City to see 'The Gates'. Because of this, I'm now over 400 emails behind, and way behind on my reading for Online Social Networks 2005.

Pushdown stack overflow

Okay. So, I have over 400 messages in my inbox. There are 66 discussions I am behind in at the Online Social Networks conference.
Lots of people want help with their websites or CivicSpace modules. All of this is either unpaid, or people have said that they will pay me some nominal amount sometime in the future. I need to find a real source of income. I need to catch up on all my online activities. I need to spend time with my family. I am this close to hitting 'Delete all unread email' and 'Mark all discussions read'
