I posted about zPen in TechNoCool, which is another blog I occasionally contribute to. Go check out my post to see what I'm talking about. I've been using it long enough to start to incorporate it into my organization scheme. I tend to be a gadget freak, so I posted in TechNoCool, where I can be a gadget freak. I didn't want to mention it here until I was sure it was something that made me MORE organized, rather than LESS, as some gadgets will do to you.

On an semi-related note, blogging is an interesting way of staying sane. I think to some degree, it contributes to my insanity, particularly trying to come up with interesting things to say. However, as a means for communicating with the masses, it's sure beats the alternatives.

To set up a blog at Allegheny, contact User Services. They'll do the heavy lifting for you - you mostly have to have something to write about. Your blog can be about anything, but my recommendation is to keep it about work and for work purposes. If you want a personal blog, a popular site that I use is Blogger. Yes, it's owned by the Google evil empire, but for personal stuff, I'm willing to deal with the devil for freebies. Creating a web page has come a long way since the Dreamweaver and HTML days of yore.
