If working on my own personal projects I develop locally on MAMP and then push everything live to the server once done. I don't use Git as much as I should, I need to work on that. For client projects, I have a random domain name that I develop client projects on, I just make sure they're not indexed by any search engines and only the client has the url to watch the site build and progress. Once I'm finished and they're happy and I've been paid I then migrate it to their server. This has worked well for me over the years and keeps clients happy as they can track the progress of the build.

Hey Jason Thanks again for pointing me to Evernote. I'm loving it. Especially like the fact that it syncs across my devices so I can post ideas on my iphone while on the train and pick the thought up on my laptop when I get home. I also like the concept of Notebooks because I can separate personal projects from business projects. Loving it so far mary

I also use Alfred on the mac to quickly open files and applications... helps me work faster! There are a lot of things for which I still use paper and pen. For example I find it easier to make lists on paper, and I keep a small notebook where I write ideas as they come to me. Similarly, before I do any medium to large projects I map everything out using paper and pen Some old habits are resistant to change.

That's quite a list MarcC! Thanks for sharing I haven't really found any mind mapping software that works well for me yet so I'll give freemind a go. nvALT looks interesting too.

Is this something similar to instapaper? I currently use a mix of chrome bookmarking and instapaper to keep track of articles I want to read again (or later). I find instapaper easy and fast to use but will be interested to see what you come up with

I've had a play with quite a few content management systems and frameworks out there and have tried my hand at teaching what I learn and sharing my pain points with others. I can relate to feeling like everyone's seen the light and they're all speaking a language you don't understand, and that can be quite frustrating. I think we all learn in different ways and some of us are example based learners while others are principle based learners. I think the most important thing is to not give up. Keep searching, keep asking, keep trying. It sounds like there's a wealth of tutorials being created by people with different learning styles and hopefully there'll be enough documentation to cover every type of learner out there Time permitting I too will be squeezing out some tutorials soon.

Some new ones for me there Jason, thanks for sharing. I've never seen Asana before, I'll definitely give it a go. Also never used Evernote though I've heard of it. Wunderlist is also a new one for me cheers!

I've been doing the freelance thing for a while now and have a small business (very small, I am the only employee...LOL). I'm constantly on the lookout for free or inexpensive tools to make my work easier and make me more productive. I thought I would share some of the ones I use and see what else everyone else is using. My favorite ones at the moment are: Do - http://do.com - Free. Great for managing projects and tasks, and you can sync your task list and deadlines with your Google calendar. Also has an iphone app. Invoiceable - http://invoiceable.com - Free with branded footer, to remove footer one time fee of £49. I've found this to be great for creating and sending invoices. Allows for recurring invoices which is a big plus for me, and allows you to accept payment via PayPal. Google Calendar - I use this for making sure I never forget an appointment or task. Since it interfaces with do.com I can really keep track of jobs and deadlines, as well as my other obligations. Integrates well with my iPhone calendar as well. DropBox - https://www.dropbox.com/ - For saving files so I can access them elsewhere, and also for temporary backups. I'll add more as I remember them, but these are my favs at the moment. What do you use?
