So, I was reading  TUAW about this product called Journler (http://journler.com/).  It is another one of the GTD kind of things and I became intrigued by it.  It is really nice, right now I use Notebook for a majority of my keeping-up-to-date things.  I really like Notebook because of it’s integration with Entourage (task specifically) but it I wish there were more options.  Well it seems that Journler is has all these great features, such as iLife integration, a drag-able  area to add more notes, etc.  I will play with it over the next few days and see what I really think.  One really cool thing is you ability to take your entries (like this one) and send it directly to your blog.  The best part is that Philip Dow (the developer) only ask for a donation ($10 min) but if I really like it after a few days I will donate more than that.

I am sitting here getting ready to do some testing of a product for my company. I have a very of Vista ready to go and then all of a sudden. BSOD. This is crazy.. It recovered but I was dumbfounded by this. Vista is a pretty impressive OS but this is so stupid. It had to do with the new Parallels drivers installin during the boot or trying to in this case. It runs pretty smooth though sometimes it gets bogged down and slows my Macbook Pro down with it. It is still easier than having another machine around. Between than an my intra going down becuase of a bad drive I don’t know what is worse..

Liam, Carolyn and I are enjoying a performance of our friend Natilie. She is an amazing flutist (I think I spelled right). Liam had a ball until we got to the Rachmanioff. It bacame a little loud for him. All and all it was great.
