Just thought I'd share some great tools that I'm actually using and finding helpful, in case some of you don't know about them. I'm going to be lazy and not post links, so just copy and paste and google to find them.
1) Toodledo --IMHO, hands down the coolest and the best todo list manager out there -you can do anything with this free puppy you might dream a task list could do. Make it as simple or complex as you want. And you don't have to worry about being stuck because it can import/export/sync/share any info you add to it.
2)As mentioned elsehwere, Jott.com (and in tandem with above, very cool). Call in your ideas, have them translated to text, and added to your todo list. Geeky productivity.
3)Get distracted when writing? WriteRoom for mac is awesome, blanking out the whole screen and giving you a nice clean space to write.
4)Time-Out is great for giving your eyes, hands, brian and spirit regular breaks and micro breaks.
5)Want help with discipline on time you use your Mac? Try an app like Macminder, or firefox plugins like PageAddict or LeechBlock (set certain time limits on groups of apps or web pages; "ie 1 hour biznik between 9-5 max!) (:
6)I'm sure most of you already know about Skype and are using it, but perhaps you don't know about Gizmo Project --which has built in call recording. Pretty slick UI and app over all.
7)Qumana offline blog editor. I don't like editing my blogs through a webpage, this is the best free option to have all your blogs in one place and create new or update entries. Although ScribeFire is an awesome firefox plug in that does the same thing and more.
Well, that should be a good start.
Have fun.

(I do review and talk about a lot of these at my GeekingOutLoud.com blog BTW, you could always subscribe there)
Oh yeah, and those of you who haven't seen how you can make use of Bizniks RSS feeds using apps services like pageflakes or Netvibes, check out the cool free social-networking creation site Ning.com (another great free services) and the demo site I made called "Biznik Focus Friends at keepmefocused.ning.com. And NO jokes allowed about the time I'm spending on all this, not being so focused on my own business right now! (:
