Thank you for your kind words! We are trying to do our best.

WireframeSketcher does this too. This feature is called components and you can share them across screens. You can also override some properties locally, so for example a navigation menu can have a different selection in each screen.

I'm worried about Posterous too. I've noticed that search function has been broken on all Posterous websites for at least a week. There's no fix in sight. I didn't expect this from them at all.

Edit: looks like the search was finally fixed.

I had a relatively good interview experience with Google. I wasn't hired but I felt that the process was fair. True, it was long and I had to invest some significant time to freshen up my algorithm skills. But overall I was left with a good impression.

I do think that Google puts too much accent on algorithms and college-level CS. I consider myself a good programmer. I created two moderately successful Micro ISVs in my free time. I contributed a huge chunk to the product at my corporate job. I get things done. However I felt that this is not what Google looks for even if the say they do.

My latest reading list:

* Meditations - Marcus Aurelius

* Man's Search for Meaning - Viktor E. Frankl. This one was very good. Psychology can actually be logical and accessible.

I use Google Tasks. I use it both from my PC and my phone. I tried many solutions before and this is the one that worked the longest for me.

Your schedule looks similar to mine.

- I wake up at 5 and go to bed at 9.

- I also work from home so I don't waste time on commute.

- I run for 1 hour every 2 or 3 days and do some exercises in other days.

- I cook a lot at home. Eat lots of salads and fruits.

- All errands are reduced to minimum. Very few things now can't be done using internet. Strange thing about your landlord. I haven't seen mine in months.

- I usually work during weekends. Then I make longer 2-3 week breaks once every 2 months to compensate. My day job is flexible enough to allow it.

- I don't own lots of stuff so things are easy to take care of around home.

Exactly! I went through a lot of setups but I think I'll stick with this one for a long time. I also use it to implement GTD for my everyday life by creating different lists for different contexts.

Keeping context outside of your head is a really good advice. I've been using Google Tasks for that and it works quite well for me. This way I also have the context with me on my phone and I can quickly note down ideas when I am away from my desk.While coding I progress through the list of small tasks and check them away.

On Ubuntu there is a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory and files included there are automatically loaded by apt.

Google Chrome uses this mechanism and it seems to work well. You install the .deb package manually the first time and then the package manager will update it automatically.

I thought that this solution was really great when I saw it.
