I may give out about something in my country and say how it's so much better in that other country but if someone from there is here and does the same I feel like saying it's a wonder they didn't stay there so if it's so bloody good.

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe that Merlin Mann got the name for his site '43 folders' from David Allen's 'Getting things done' book. I have been trying to implement GTD techniques for some time. The 43 folder idea appealed to me hu

He's expressing an opinion except his style is to state his opinion as fact without providing any evidence at all. It's not worth reading. Now if he had predicted this purchase, that would be different.

If pretty much every home has a PC, if the schools teaching ICT have computers then how is this going to make people 'learn computers' better? Would kids be more turned on by this than by, say, developing apps for android phones?
