Working US hours from Europe has flipped my day. Mornings are now for leisure and evenings for working. This completely changes what that leisure time is spent on. Most days I work from 1pm to 9pm here in Spain, which translates to 6am to 2pm Chicago time. That gives me all the time before lunch to enjoy the light of day and all the activities that encourages. I find myself more interested in working out, more eager to read books, and generally infused with more energy for both physical and mental activities.
I totally, totally, totally identify with how this could be true.

Looks pretty incredible. I can see getting a lot of use out of this while traveling and/or with the speakerphone option.

I can never use Tweetbot without realizing that I am using Tweetbot, which is bad.

Negotiations with the carriers:

Android handset makers: Here are our phones. How would you like us to change them so that you will sell them?

Microsoft: Here’s $200 million. Please sell our phones.

Apple: Here is our new phone. It comes in black or white. We will let you sell it.

I think they call this ‘negotiating from strength’.
