A handy prioritizing assessment to help improve your work efficiency!
While I've been using the pomodoro technique for time management for several years now, I found the assessment to be really helpful for determining what things to spend those precious tomatoes on, and which to drop.
How does it work? It's pretty easy~

UI Resources & Wireframing :D
Platform for prototyping for mobile: proto.io
Free gets you 1 active project.
Ever wonder how designers make mobile or tablet mockups that look like they really exist without actually publishing anything?
UI ELEMENTS
Download from the links here.
There are also links to wireframing resources.
What is wireframing? It's like a flow-chart or diagram for your website or app. But the designer deities called it something fancy so that no-one has any idea what they're talking about :D
Examples of website wireframe & final products here.

Ubuntu Software Center & How to Install LaTeX

The Ubuntu Software Center: Making Installation Easier since You Installed Ubuntu.
I can't believe I missed it before, but with this sucker you can look up programmes you want and install them easily.
In Natty it is conveniently located in the launcher, which is that bar on the left. Anthromorphic Folder looks in its general direction.
Let's see just how easy this makes your life. For example, I've been looking for a good LaTeX install for the past week, and TUG (TeX User Group) says TeX Live, which requires some finagling with the terminal.
The terminal is scary @_@
So I've been putting it off.
But now, behold THE SOFTWARE CENTER!!!

This is what happens when you click on the icon!
See that search bar in the upper right? SEARCH FOR YOUR PROGRAMME!!!

INSTALL YOUR PROGRAMME!!! (TeXworks is what I used back on Windows, and it is pretty much the best Tex/LaTeX programme out there.) You'll have to type in your password, obviously, 'cause that's what happens when you install things. Even in the terminal, when you use magical 'sudo'.

You can add your new programme to the launcher by clicking 'yes' to that little pop-up bit on the bottom there. I already did it, so you can see it telling me it'll be in the launcher :3
When it's all installed you can RUN YOUR NEW PROGRAMME!!!

This isn't my document, obviously, it's a sample from Applied Math at University of Colorado Boulder's handy dandy LaTeX tutorial.
WATCH ME BE AWESOME WITH MY NEW PROGRAMMES!!!
