So having listened to 7.5 habits here we go:
Goals: I'll know when I get there OR To complete 23 things
Obstacles: lack of time, meeting commitments and interruptions
Important to keep to a regular Friday pm time slot and relocate out of my office
Task list is the 23 things.....

Really need to get some of this background reading underway. Agree completely that our core business includes and requires understanding the environments that our users occupy. Ipso facto Web 2.0 or whatever you like to call emerging/emergent technologies.
Concentrate on exploration....discovery ...play.

Now back to more serious reading....

First things

Remember the gmail account this time.....
