Macbook Hacks

blog-macbook-air-2

For those of you who know me, you know that I’m a big fan of anything productivity-centric.  Could be a byproduct of my (sometimes) procrastinatory nature, whereby I need to find ways to do things as quickly and efficiently as possible so that I can achieve a superior result with a comfortable amount of pressure being “under the gun”.  Could also be that I really respect the Tim Ferrises (Sidebar – what is the right way to pluralize someone’s name that ends in an ‘s’?  You’d think I know since my name ends in an ‘s’ – but you’d be wrong) of the world.

Either way, I found a great article on Macbook hacks that has already started changing my life.  Being relatively new to the Macbook game (only a couple years strong), I’ve already learned/loved much of the quick keys it offers, whether it’s CMD+SHIFT+4 for a screen shot utility, or CMD+~ to switch between windows in the existing application.

So, without further adieu, I present 18 Mac Hacks That Will Change Your Life.

Friday Playlist Inspired by Buzzfeed

Earlier this week, Buzzfeed ran an article talking about songs that you’d never listen to the same way again if you knew some of the history (such as, songs that were actually previously recorded by someone else much earlier than the now-famous versions).

As such, they basically dared me to create a playlist with these songs and test whether I have any changed opinion on the songs after knowing the “back story”.  Short answer: no way – this playlist is amazing.

So I thought I’d share with you in case you need some solid music to get you through the day and on to the St. Paddy’s weekend:


 

Enjoy!
