Anyways, I decided time to do more stuff and to learn some more programming and cool web stuff. I thought to myself how best to motivate myself and stumbled upon this article in Life Hacker. The brilliance is in its simplicity! Keep a diary and every time you do the regular thing enough, cross it off. Sort of reminds me of Brain Training. The aim is that you keep a chain of regularity and aim to ultimately to keep it going for as long as possible without breaking it.

So here it is, the badly fitting table on the right hand side. Lets see if I actually keep it up!

It does’nt seem to be available for the Treo but I downloaded the google maps for treo anyways, bloody heck! Amazing! Finally I do not have to take out my A-Z :)

Even thought it says ipod, it actually includes a normal 3.5 jack that fits all mp3 players. Don’t trust the title, it doesnt have the specific ipod connector thing one would assume.

Did a battery test and they must’ve lasted about 8-10 hours on 4 AAA! Amazing and the sound quiality is much better then my old (lost) travel speakers
