PRODUCTIVITY PORN . . . That's what Marc Andreessen calls "techniques, tactics, and tricks for maximizing personal productivity." In a long post, he explains some of his favorite tips (some of which I'm paraphrasing)--

• Don't keep a schedule;
• Keep three and only three lists: a Todo List, a Watch List, and a Later List;
• Each night before you go to bed, prepare a 3x5 index card with a short list of 3 to 5 things that you will do the next day;
• Use procrastination to your advantage;
• Be incompetent on purpose when you don't want to be asked again;
• Email only twice a day;
• Don't answer the phone;
• Wear an iPod at work (people are less likely to bother you);
• Say no unless you really want to say yes;
• Do something you love.
