ColinAke.com…until I write a book.

If you’re a regular visitor, I’m sure you’ve noticed the layout change (uses more screen real estate) and a couple changes.  This includes a tag cloud (it’ll grow as I actually tag my posts), and a new application called Skribit.

Skribit (co-founded by Paul Stamatiou, Georgia Tech student and fellow blogger) is designed for bloggers to get feedback from their readers on topics to write on.  I want to provide you with topics that you want to read about.  If you prefer my commentary on web 2.0 apps, or want to hear more about school, want me to shut up, or want me to blog more on business concepts, Skribit is designed to give you the opportunity to have some input!  Take the chance - let me know if you have an idead or two for me to write about and I think you will not be disappointed.  Try it out and let me know what you think.

Take care, I’m late to bed (the only night this week I get decent sleep).

I’ve used Jott for a few weeks now and wanted to give a quick update of what I’ve found to be useful about it.

Jott is a to-do list with some sweet features - you can call it from your phone and leave yourself a to-do.  Or your can call Jott and send a friend a to-do or reminder.  You can organize your Jotts into lists and keep track of them easily using their web-based tool, as well.

You can also call up Jott and have it read you RSS feeds (never used it).  Or use Jott to write to WordPress or Twitter (I use those some).  But I think that the simplicity of Jott and the accessibility of it from a cell phone makes it a great to-do list.  I am using it to remind me of stuff I need to do (via text or email), as well as just keep track of the stuff I normally would forget about.  Great stuff.

I hear it has an iPhone app, but I wouldn’t know about that now, would I? *pouts*  Someone like Nathan Fowler would have to chime in to tell me how awesome he is for having an iPhone and tell us how awesome Jott is on the iPhone.

If you’re looking for a way to organize your to-dos, Jott may be your answer.  Check it out and see if it helps.

Take care everyone!
