- Keynote on the iPad for presentations is the only software I use that actually makes me happy. I don't think it's possible to make an ugly presentation in Keynote
- My #1 productivity secret: Don't watch TV. Ever.
- I've got a Samsung Chromebook next to the bed, and when I wake up I try to clear out the overnight email before I get up. I know I've got a deadline (I need to take the kids to school) so that forces some pretty efficient and telegraphic responses. I pretty much type as fast as I can for half an hour—it gets the brain going and primes me for the day.
- When I've got to get some writing done, I turn on my Strict Pomodoro plug-in in Chrome. It shuts off all internet distractions, such as email, for 20 minutes, then sounds a bell and lets me back at them for 5 minutes. I can spend a whole day like this: 20-5, 20-5... When I really need to concentrate, it's the only thing that works for me.
