Happy to be on the 'friends of jeremy' list.
You should think about writing a book. I have the title worked out:
Be(a)st Practices: A technologists guide to an optimized life.
I can throw in a few chapters. I finally executed this week on a long-overdue ambition of removing battery-related bottlenecks. Just bought a second mobile phone battery, blackberry battery, and laptop battery. for a few hundred dollars, i can work/play the whole way across the atlantic instead of halfway, and never run out of phone/e-mail juice. My wife thinks its crazy, so I know I might be on-to something...
