Total, Relaxed Organization™\n\nTRO is powerfully simple, new workflow and time management, yet it feels comfortable and familiar. That's because it unifies and enhances core philosophies from David Allen's Getting Things Done (GTD) with best practices of systems like Seven Habits, Total Workday Control, Take Back Your Life, and proprietary new methods by Priacta.\n\nSeamless. Step-by-step. Learn on your own or with a coach. Use the tools you like best. No guesswork, no sweat.\n\nThe result? Relaxed control. Your desk is clear. Your inbox stays empty. Your mind is uncluttered. You focus on what's important. Your life has better balance. You have effective, long-lasting habits. It's like getting an extra two hours a day-for life. More...\n

If you browse or read a lot on the web, we believe you will find Diigo indispensable. Diigo is two services in one -- it is a research and collaborative research tool on the one hand, and a knowledge-sharing community and social content site on the other.\n\nDiigo provides a browser add-on that can really improve your research productivity. As you read on the web, instead of just bookmarking, you can highlight portions of web pages that are of particular interest to you. You can also attach sticky notes to specific parts of web pages. Unlike most other web "highlighters" that merely clip, Diigo highlights and sticky notes are persistent in the sense that whenever you return to the original web page, you will see your highlights and sticky notes superimposed on the original page, just what you would expect if you highlighted or wrote on a book!\n\nMoreover, all the information -- highlighted paragraphs, sticky notes, and the original url -- are saved on Diigo servers, creating your personal digest of the web, your own collection of highlights from the web - ones that are meaningful to you! You can easily search, access, sort and share this collection from any PC or even iPhone.

ePluribus Media has pulled together a collection of resources to help us improve our "news" writing skills. Why? Consider this:\n\n "As anthropologists began comparing notes on the world's few remaining primitive cultures, they discovered something unexpected. From the most isolated tribal societies in Africa to the most distant islands in the Pacific, people shared essentially the same definition of what is news.\n\n They shared the same kind of gossip. They even looked for the same qualities in the messengers they picked to gather and deliver their news. They wanted people who could run swiftly over the next hill, accurately gather information, and engagingly retell it. Historians have pieced together that the same basic news values have held constant through time.\n\n "Humans have exchanged a similar mix of news… throughout history and across cultures," historian Mitchell Stephens has written."
