What Am I Twittering On About?

Yes, I've joined the world of twitter. For those who don't know - it can basically be summed up as a one-line blogging application. An easy way to stay in touch, keep people informed and pass on useful or useless information.

I'm not doing much with it - other than to try and keep my Status update on Facebook, Linked In, Ecademy and Plaxo up-to-date in one step rather than several. So far, I've got it down to two and still working on the single, one-hit approach by juggling and 'feeding' into TwitterSync or is it TwitterFeed or some other twitter based app?

I won't be telling you what I had for breakfast and I'm sure you don't really want to know what I'm doing every minute of the day but there will be occasional updates or 'tweets' when I feel I've got something interesting to say.

Are You Easily Distracted?

My latest newsletter is just out. This month's main article is about dealing with distractions.

I doubt you could get through a day without being distracted in one way or another by something. Either externally – by the phone, email and other people or internally – by your thoughts or a change in focus, particularly if you’re working on something that is either difficult or doesn’t really hold your interest. We’re only human and we’re easily bored and it’s too easy to let these distractions interrupt the flow.
