1. How do you tackle a deadline?
In short - badly! Due to the pressures of university and the fact that I work alone most of the time, my time management is all over the place. I only have my leisure time in which to work, and must therefore struggle to motivate myself into getting the job done; if a project is getting awkward, I end up leaving it for a while to find something more cheery to do.

1. How do you tackle a deadline?
I work. Deadlines are just the motivation I need to sit down and buckle in until the work is done.
Leading a team is a different matter. Those projects are larger, and I've learned the hard way buckling in is not my best move.
My strategy as an engineering manager is to ensure my team has what they need to ...

1. How do you tackle a deadline?
I tackle deadlines the same as anyone else, it's all about priority management. I first need to find out exactly
what the client wants (when I can) and then start working on versions and checking up with them to make
sure they're satisfied along the way. Honestly, I wouldn't say I had too many deadlines in the past, the work
was generally open.

First I'll receive the request from the client for work, and if taken, ...

Steven Troughton-Smith will be hitting us with a version update to his iPhone app Speed.
Here's a pre-release mockup "… A mere glimpse of Speed 2.0!"
It looks like a healthy upgrade to Speed version 1, available now at the App Store for $0.99.
Version 2 (when released) will be priced at $1.99, though if you purchase Speed now, you get free upgrades for life.

After searching long and hard (google did all the work), and bypassing the DIY route, I found the TC2 portable iPod charger.
It uses two "AA" batteries and works beautifully with my new iPhone.
Finally, a use for the twenty NiMH batteries I have left over from my old digital camera.

Once upon a time I coveted piles of books, and literally tones of collectables.
I have to admit that my collecting days are over.
Don't get me wrong. I love books and most tangible media, but part of my lower impact aspirations include not collecting more "Stuff".
Gadgets? They don't count as stuff do they? Hypocritically speaking.
Missing the point.

No word on Fido sales figures.

An email (including the image below) perks my interest.. as was intended.
WWDC 2008 "A landmark event. In more ways than one... Everything Mac. Everything iPhone. San Francisco, June 9-13, 2008."
This leads me to think that either a divergence or synergy is about to happen. Apple, a long proponent of single devices for single purposes, seems to be swaying the way of convergence lately.
I for one think a tablet would be cool, though I'm really in the mood for a Mac version of ...
