Looking for some emacs hacks, I re-discovered Sacha Chua’s blog.
This blog contains some nice emacs hacks (like how to blog
from emacs) but also a lot of posts about GenY and social networking.
I let you learn more about her and her job by reading her blog but
one of her talk (Networking 2.0, blogging your way out of a job and into a career)
lets me realize that I’m not blogging enough.
More precisely that I don’t pay enough attention to my social
network. Even if I know that it is important, I didn’t made the
effort to expand it and give it a real value.
In consequence my first decision is to really use this blog to share my thoughts and
my skills. The first expected velocity is at least one article/post per week.
I hope the GTD method will help me to succeed to keep the rythm.

    I’m also trying to write 1 post/week but I have to admit that I’m cheating a bit.
    Sometimes I have a lot of things to talk about and sometimes nothing at all.
    In that case I write several post but I keep publishing once a week, so I have some posts waiting to be published even when I have nothing to talk about.

    I’m not sure GTD will help a lot (except if you already know the subject of your post and just need time to do it).

    I think (or hope …) that GTD will help me to collect all “stuff”. I often have some topics what seem interesting but I forget them. More precisely I forget that I had something to say about them.
    Putting all those topic in my inbox, I’ll be able to construct a valid ‘next action’ (or incubation list).
    For example, this morning I collected 3 or 4 items. Now that they are stored in my inbox, they will become posts one day.
