Virtual travel day

I was all over the U.S. today. It's called a "radio tour" in the book trade - my publisher hires a firm that arranges a series of "drive by" interviews with radio stations (mostly AM) daytime talk shows, and I just sit at the phone all day (starting at 5am Ojai time - most are on the east coast). So today I held forth of the 6-minute key-to-life stuff - let's see, in Toledo, Tampa, New Hampshire, Minneapolis, Montana, Cincinatti, BC (Canada), Ohio NPR, Miami, and Pittsburgh. What's interesting, when I've done these over the years with my books, the people who actually heard me on the radio while driving wherever, and just "got it", and connected into the GTD thing. Real time forerunner of podcasting, obviously...

For those of us who missed hearing you, could you give the website of the NPR site (or MPR or OPR) site that contains your interview? TNX.

Unfortunately the links are not available to me, or at least I don't know about them. NPR was for a 5-state syndicated region of stations, and the rest were just AM stations on the run. Nothing particularly profound, other than very freeze-dried version of "why GTD"...

I woke up Sunday morning to your interview on a Pittsburgh radio station. What a great way to start the day and the week! As you spoke about productivity, I saw myself and my coworkers -- the productive ones and the ones that are so exhausted by all they have to do that they rarely get anything completed. When the interview was over, I promptly got out of bed and started on the "weekend list" that I had blown off the day before.

Thanks!
