I’ve been contacted by a number of people who’ve asked to test my Adium plugin for Quicksilver, and they’re all cool people (guys, invariably) who are into computers and Macs etc. One works with one of the Wordpress contributors, another is a hockey player. Almost all have their own websites.

The plugin should be ready by the time the next Quicksilver beta comes out (which may or may not be called B37), and it’ll probably only work with the upcoming Adium 0.8, leaving the old plugin available for earlier versions of Adium in case someone is silly enough to want to use it.

I got Getting Things Done sometime over the weekend from Amazon. I’ve started reading it, and it’s interesting that it sort of uses the idea of wu wei (vaguely “non-action” or “action without effort”), which I’ve known about for years and studied in my reading of Taoism and Buddhism. Why didn’t I think of applying it to my personal and professional life as a means of organization? Guess I’m not smart enough, or maybe it was just too obvious.

I started fairly well this quarter, but have slacked off, as usual. Next quarter will only be different if I make it different, and it’ll be my last chance to break the pattern. We’ll see what I do.
