I can ROTFL* and accept the truth of the statement at the same time: many evenings, faced with the breadth of life’s challenges—-at the time when ‘normal’ people would turn to drugs, booze or TV—-I am still likely to be found testing a new piece of software or webware; I especially like watching videos of developers demonstrating why their program is the best thing since creamed cheese.

By the way, I still have around 8-10 info management programs open at any one time, around 5 of which are only for textual notes. I switch between them depending on the task at hand and find that it helps my focus very much; I liken it to working from my client’s office, something I have done often in the past as a consultant. For a period, I had tried the ‘task-focused’ interface of Tasktop, but found it made very little difference to my frame of thought.
