Miscellaneous things I have marked for reading later:

  • How to think like Warren Buffett, the 29-part series. How relevant investing advice from 1978 is I don’t know, but they’re all fairly short with good quotes from the shareholder letters of Berkshire Hathaway. (via Lifehacker)
  • Mac OS X keyboard shortcuts. I got a MacBook recently and keep accidentally deleting things with my ingrained Windows shortcuts. (again, via Lifehacker)
  • Managing around interruptions. While I’m fairly organized on the papers side, I get interrupted a lot, especially when I’m trying to, say, write a 2100-word article due next week or a marketing plan. I started coming into work an hour before everyone else, just for an hour of quiet time. 
  • Sirena Huang on TEDTalks. I find the TEDTalks blog a little frustrating in that I can’t always download the mp3s and I’ve not yet figured out why.
  • Into the Mountains of Kyrgyzstan. I’ve fallen way behind on the Frugal Traveller column on the NYTimes. Between the column, a friend who gets to travel a great deal for work, and some recent reading, it’s just making me want to get my passport, quit my job, and go.
