Whether I’m making sure that a tweet about a Chromebook sale in Australia hits those down under when awake or scheduling a Skype call with Sam Tran, the ‘developer’ half of Ohso, I work with multiple time zones in mind.

And therein lies a problem. If you know me you’ll  know that I have the memory capacity of a goldfish running Windows Vista (i.e., not very good). I can barely recall what I got up to yesterday, much less remember the time differential between my door and the foot of Golden Gate bridge!
