Paul Krugman explains why 2010 should be the year of China, in a sense. His parting words may be addressed at the wrong reader -- who has nothing to gain from such advice --, but that's just another, more understated way, to tell all others that the time has come for a change. Though I wouldn't -- who would? -- expect things to change that much in 2010 (or at any other time), his words are well read and his arguments are convincing.

I stumbled upon your tools by way of looking around for GTD tools. Then I noticed on your blog that you are also an expat in China, and an animator to boot! Well, two interests aligned with mine, and I also saw that you're one of us-- struggling to ship our ideas-- but I see that you already know something about finishing!
I'm just wondering in the past two years if you've done any development in any of the three (and soon four) up and coming mobile oses.
I wish I had discovered Ninerpad when I was still using my Treo (the swift simple immediacy of the Palm OS platform I miss dearly)... a few months back I getting obsessed with the idea of what you could do with an infinite canvas, and now I found you've already done that.
This is just simple fan-mail, but if you want to reach out to me, look up my contact information at clarityengine (dot) com. I'm in Beijing.
Hi Berm
Thanks for the post. Much appreciated.
If finishing was as easy as starting, the world would be a very different place.
And finishing anything doesn't make the next thing any easier either. So I think it takes a bit of madness to persist long enough to finish what one starts.
So yes I've got a couple of projects for the iPad "under way", with all that that implies. I put on my fool's hat two weeks ago and am now embarked on the mad dash, hoping that life will again allow for this latest compulsion.

Woah. I just saw your profile. Interaction Designer no less. Exactly that field from which 80% of my frustration draws its source, as I try and reconcile the act of touching (something touch screens were made for, apparently) and the need to see what one touches (something our fat fingers always interfere with).
