I’ve written about a few of my favorites - todoist, rememberthemilk, backpack - all excellent feature-rich solutions, maybe a little TOO feature-rich actually - so today I took a look at SimpleGTD […]

On a whim ‘T’ and I popped into the Caribou Café in Center City Philly for brunch, we’d never been there, but every-time I’d walk by, it was always crowded, and the food look very interesting. I’m not big on breakfast or brunch, but perhaps that’s going to change, simply put it was excellent - […]
