I’ve been a bit busy these past few weeks getting the blog updated for 2010, so I thought I’d do one big post to share with you all what’s been happening. Firstly, you may have noticed it now has a new design. Gone is the sunflower theme which had absolutely nothing to do with the topic of the blog, and in its place is something a little more fitting (well I think so anyway). I wanted to avoid spending countless hours doing my own re-design so I bought a custom theme, and then ended up spending countless hours tweaking that instead (don’t ask). Anyways, I like it and I hope you do too. Share your feedback!
As promised a couple of months ago, I’m today also releasing a compilation ebook of the most popular posts from 2007. I hope eventually to be able to do one for each year the blog has been live. The ebook contains twelve posts that have been primarily picked by you, the readers. If you want an easy way of viewing the best of the Organize IT archive, this is a great way to do it.You can buy it separately or get it bundled free with my Productivity Tips book.
- Buy Best Of Organize IT: 2007 ($2.99)
- Buy Productivity Tips bundle ($4.99)

Moving on, I’ve also updated my weekly planner to cover 2010 and given it a few visual tweaks (primarily forced on me admittedly, because I forget about the custom fonts I used when I moved over to my new laptop). I’m still using it even after all these months so something must be good about it. If you’re a pen and paper type of person then why not give it a try?
Finally, over a year ago I created a Twitter list of cool people who tweeted about GTD, lifestyle design, productivity, etc. In that time it has got badly out of date so I decided to freshen it up, clear out those that were no longer tweeting and remove any that shouldn’t have been on there in the first place. If you’re just starting out on Twitter, or you’ve looking for some like-minded people, then this list will be ideal for you. If you have any suggestions on who to add to it, then get in touch!

I’ve never really got into Twitter. I have an account but haven’t really given it the attention it deserves. This Twitter list you have though, has given me a great opportunity to interact with some fellow GTD fans, so thanks for that.
Bought your ebook and will be reading it this weekend. Looking at the index, there are quite a few interesting articles there so I will be looking forward to it.

Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve dropped by the site! I’ve been staying up with it in my RSS reader. You’ve been doing so much. Congratulations! And I love the new theme. So glad all is going well here.
