Google Reader has a great feature for sharing articles. It’s been a terrific way to share interesting and pertinent information affecting iofy and to give like-minded folks easy access to my favorite RSS feeds.
You can access my shared page here.
Or pull the feed here.
And with any luck, a drop of the most recent items will be on the sidebar of my blog… Sharing is caring.
Rather than letting long must-read articles interrupt my flow, I’m using Safari and tabs to keep things organized. Lifehacker got me thinking about this with their Firefox Serial Flow article, but I find it even more efficient in Safari (and I’m on the whole WebKit thing).
I simply keep a separate window and open pages I want to review later in a new tab within that window. Periodically I save the set of tabs (Bookmarks -> Add Bookmark For These X Tabs…) to a bookmark, “ToRead”, in the Bookmarks Bar. One click on that tab opens all the ToRead bookmarks when I have to time to review.
Philip Greenspun, a CompSci professor at MIT, wrote a nice post. Something most twenty and thirty somethings don’t want to hear, but should anyway…

Actually, I feel challenged to prove him wrong.
iofy has a subscription to the O’Reilly Safari. It allows complete online access to O’Reilly’s entire line of books, as well as books they still have in the works. As a tech company, we thrive on this.
Lately I’ve hooked up bookmarks on my iPhone to titles I like. At any time, a single click lands me in the book I left off on. It’s far more convenient to have books in a pocket, on a device one already keeps on hand, than to carry around a Kindle or hardback.
