Friday Link Day 2007-04-27

My favorite link of the week is the discovery of a new "potentially inhabitable" planet. It is believed to have water! If you start now by the time that your children's, children's... heck a lot of them are born, its just shy of 21 light years away, you can have an address that ends in Planet 581c!

Software Engineers can go to space too. I wonder if they ran any parts of flight control and operations on the Excel or Word... and if he knew they were if he still would have gone.

Do you hate putting your phone or iPod on the ground. Then you need the Electronics Hammock... yes, it's really a product.

If you hate your BlackBerry (like me) but enjoy the abuse and want to put the interface on a Windows Mobile 6.0 phone BlackBerry would like to help you out. They are apparently releasing BlackBerry functionality on Windows Mobile with ATT first and moving from there.

How do you get work life balance?

I was reading through some blog posts and stumbled onto a presentation I wanted to share. Stuart Levine, author of "Cut to the Chase," provides a downloadable PDF manifesto entitled Reclaim Your Life: A Two-Week Challenge to Help You Regain Time It has 11 great tips on how to get to the point, and get the time you need to really make a difference. He starts with a quick review of work life balance and how it's easy to say and not so easy to do. Check it out... make the time.
