Hey awesome I have been in the same boat using the Pomodoro Technique where they have an Activity Inventory ("hopper") and a To Do Today List ("do today"). It's just this technique has a process for unproductive people like me to follow hehe.

isurfbecauseon Best all around free IDE for mac

Thanks bro, u guys are tight. Let's see, I am a coldfusion developer and use dreamweaver at work but on PC. I've also done some flex apps using flashbuilder which is eclipse. I guess I could use dreamweaver or eclipse for mac.... I googled mac ide reviews, but i'm still on the fence. I'm sure i could find an unused copy of zend studio. I was just wondering what does industry use, if I wanted to switch over to be a php developer. I was hoping to get a majority vote on an IDE but ur right, it is opening a can of worms.

That is true, who are they to look down on me for giving an honest answer. I already tried that many times haha, bottom line was I didn't have an engineering degree!
