Sharing and La Fonera

I signed up for Fon, a wifi sharing system, in which you get a subsidized router and you share your wireless with the chance to use others wireless. All of this is facilitated through a slick Google Map interface and after receiving my router in the mail, I set it up and was impressed with the ease of it.

I am a Linus, that means that I give the wireless away and I get free access, if I were a Bill, I would get 50 % revenue of non-Fon day passes but I would have to pay. There aren’t very many Fon routers in this neck of the woods, but if I travel, major cities can have quite a few access points.

So what does La Fonera have to do with personal productivity?

If you share your personal productivity goals with people, they can help keep you accountable. I just started Weight Watchers and fatblogging (or fit blogging) and I made a very public share about how much I weight. It’s wasn’t easy, but I knew that if I share my commitment it would hold me more accountable.

I use the Getting Things Done system and this is my public commitment to making sure that I do my Weekly Reviews. That’s the part that I usually fail at getting done. I will post every week when I get my weekly review done.
