Year End “House Cleaning”

Here it is the final days of 2011. Right now there are 4 days (5 counting today) to be exact left in the calendar year for 2011. Close to one month ago I set out to do some digital “House Cleaning” before the end of the year. As I’ve stated before I’ve become quite accustomed to using Instapaper and Evernote almost on a daily basis. I think if you were to look into either one of my accounts, you could get lost for hours. I’ve set it as a goal to have everything “cleaned up” and organized in hopes of starting the new year fresh. The ultimate goal would be to get to the alleged “Inbox 0″ I hear so much about, but I don’t think I have the gumption to get to that so I’m setting my sights on something that might be just a tad more attainable in the amount of time I’ve now allotted myself. So here’s to hoping I can get everything organized to start 2012 clean! Wish me luck!

It’s been a long time since I’ve actively used a mouse either at work or at home, I’ve relied one my Wacom tablet for everything. I knew I wanted a change of pace so I debated the Magic Mouse and the Apple Magic Trackpad along with a few other options for about two weeks.
