Chronic Procrastination and the Cost of the "Ding!" ↪

I help some people with GTD type support, so this story is very dear to my heart. All this talk about push email on the latest iPhone and how good it is seems to miss the point. After having a Blackberry for years I can deffinately say that emails arriving instantly 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, is not good for your productivity.

So go on, shut off the ding.

Back from a weekend in Suffolk at the Latitude festival. Had a really cool time with Max and Alis, really relaxing compared to Glastonbury. Highlights were Seasick Steve, Hanish Kureishi, watching Max enjoy Franz Ferdinand, my early and late night walk through the woods and Sigur Ros’s early stuff.

I always find it funny when lost stuff like this turns up - on this occasion a hidden hoard of Delia Derbyshire’s work, 267 tapes in all, lain unheard for 30 years. The track at the bottom of the page is beautiful.

After my first night at latitude I have woken early. Thought I’d come for a stroll. Such a different atmos to Glastonbury. Oh, and I have seen jon ronson twice, the first time I shouted loudly like a baffoon “look there’s jon ronson”. He heard and said hello.
