We wrap up our conversation with Mike Schmitz about how his latest project, LifeHQ, organizes your projects, to-dos, and your life (hence the name). Mike explains some of the key concepts behind his system, how it integrates with apps that you already are using, and the modularity of his approach. Best of all, you can adopt features as your needs and time dictate, rather than have to learn everything all at once.

We wrap up our conversation with Mike Schmitz about how his latest project, LifeHQ, organizes your projects, to-dos, and your life (hence the name). Mike explains some of the key concepts behind his system, how it integrates with apps that you already are using, and the modularity of his approach. Best of all, you can adopt features as your needs and time dictate, rather than have to learn everything all at once. (Part 2)  This edition of MacVoices is supported by The MacVoices Slack.

The MacVoices panel of Frank Petrie, David Ginsburg, Mike Schmitz, Jeff Gamet, Jay Miller, Jim Rea, Mark Fuccio, and Brittany Smith shifted the discussion to the privacy aspects of Amazon's Sidewalk service, Amazon's choice to require opt-out, and how it compares to what Apple is doing with AirTags.

The MacVoices Live! panel of Frank Petrie, David Ginsburg, Mke Schmitz, Jeff Gamet, Jay Miller, Jim Rea, Mark Fuccio, and Brittany Smith debate the pros, cons, and capabilities of the new Twitter Blue subscription plan. Are features like UnDo, Bookmark Folders and Reader Mode enough to get you sign up, or are they too sparse, too little, and/or too late? How does privacy and advertising figure into the equation. Those questions and more are all on the table. (Part 1)  Wondery and the "Business Movers: The Enlightenment of Steve Jobs" are supporting Macvoices.

Shawn also talks about combating "dual focus," and why it matters.
