Nicely done: the USB Typewriter — Classic Typewriters for the Digital Age, as they can do almost all keys a PC keyboard can do see the USB Typewriter — FAQ using a mechanical (not electrical!) typewriter.
Basically the opposite of the IBM Selectric Computer Terminal, the Daisy wheel printing, the IBM 1050 system, and the IBM 2741 Console.
Note the kits (there are both soldering and non-soldering versions) are mostly aimed at models that once were popular in the USA, so for manufacturers like Adler there are no guidelines (but the existing guidelines for soldering and for non-soldering probably work fine).

Too bad the Dutch Lifehacking posting of March 15, 2014 didn’t link back to the original Funders and Founders Notes – How to Be Productive by Anna Vital.
Not just because credit where credit is due, but especially since Funders and Founders Notes have lots of useful infographs.

The 7 Pro Tips to Make Travel More Efficient posting on Mashable has a really interesting set of tips.
But in the final section Book only the first night, I’m missing a reference to AirBnB as an addition to HotelTonight and WeHostels, even though Mashable has a separate AirBnB posting category.
AirBnB is often cheaper than hotels, and more importantly gets you in touch with locals that can get you to the hotspots for dining, etc.

I didn’t have time yet to get one, but the Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 (thanks Olaf Monien for pointing me at this in the first place) is definitely on my list of devices to install soon as a successor to my Fujitsu ScanSnap S510.
The S510 has a few drawbacks:
I wanted a new scanner that gets rid of at least a few of these drawbacks.
The Fujitsu ScanSnap site already lists some compelling iX500 features (like 25 ppm, parallel OCR PDF, paper handling, ultrasonic multi-feed detection), but failed to indicate about some of the other drawbacks.
Most reviews of the iX500 were unclear about that as well, until I read the bottom of this Amazon.com review: Read the rest of this entry »
