@Bill - great ideas! Especially, “If you create it, then you have to manage it.” I use http://jott.com for when inspiration strikes on the road.

I try:

-To bookmark interesting stuff in del.icio.us.

-Use Google Notebook all day long.

-Use Google Alerts to keep an eye on newness.

-Go from place to place empty handed. Keeps my head clear. I used to carry bags and bags of work-related stuff thinking I needed it all every place I went.

-Do an end of the month clean out and organizing of stuff. Kind of like how GTD teaches you to get stuff cleaned up first, even if it takes hours to do. This allows me to spend time being productive - until cleaning day comes. But I “try” and whittle things away during the week.

The moment you create it, you have to manage it. Then, how can we automagically manage it by putting it on auto-pilot. I like that whole GTD - “Get it out of your head.”

That was a really great post on how to improve a company’s blogging sector. Currently I do not personally implement many of those suggestions but I seem to be doing well.

@Ashley - It’s great how everyday, inexpensive tools can work wonders, isn’t it? Reviewing your notes at the end of the day is a great idea!

I started carrying around a cheap spiral notebook with me and because I always have something to write in I have 5 posts on my blog and 3 pages on my website that I wouldn’t have otherwise done in the last month. Not to mention numerous topic ideas for future posts. I sit down in the evening and go over what I have jotted down during the day.
