Tim Ferriss of the 4-hour Work Week published a great article this morning surrounding the subject of Work-Life balance and Psychological Interference. I've enjoyed following Tim's adventures after reading his book last year, and this latest article really stands out.

Attention management starting to go mainstream?

43 Folders had a great post this morning about an article from the New York Times regarding email overload.

What I find interesting is that this idea is just now going mainstream. Having listened to Merlin Mann's Inbox Zero mantra for a while now, and Timothy Ferriss' opinions about attention management, I am glad to see this catching on. Email overload is one of the biggest sources of lost productivity to businesses today. Thankfully, it's an easy problem to fix.

This release is the culmination of effort from several people, specifically Cliff Meece.

As this release settles, I will begin work on documentation for this release. Here's a quick overview of some of the exciting new features:

  • QForms are now Drupal Node's
  • QApplications now provide a way to define QDrupal settings right through your browser
  • You can codegen right through your browser
