====== Your Portable Digital Life ======

Starting around fall 2008, I realized that I have become more obsessed than most people with portability of my personal data. I want certain pieces of my personal data accessible everywhere I go, whether it's instant access over the Internet, or periodic syncing from one computing device to another. When I'm at work, I run programs on my computer at home and project their user interfaces over the Internet onto my local desktop. And I try to future-proof my personal data by using open formats, and wherever possible, plain text.

Here are some guides I have written in this subject area:

  * [[howto:blackberry video encoding script|Blackberry Video Encoding Script]] – Convert video to a format suitable for a Blackberry
  * [[howto:send_email_to_your_pda_from_the_command_prompt|How to Send Email To Your PDA From the Command Prompt]]
  * [[howto:passwords_zim|Encrypted and Remotely Synced Password List with Zim Desktop Wiki and Friends]] – Create one master password list and sync it among all your computers

More will be coming soon, and it's possible that I might collate these ideas into a presentation that I might want to give at work and/or my local Linux user group.
