Tech Bag September 2015
Huge update to my tech bag. For starters, I’m starting to refer to it as a tech bag, rather than a go bag, b/c I started a YouTube channel and Go Bag means something different outside of this blog. On top of that, everything except the laptop & iPad have changed!

EDC July 2015
My EDC has changed quite a lot since the last time I posted over a year ago. New phone, new knife, new KEYS. Basically the only stuff that’s the same is my wallet, pen, and ever present EFF sticker on the back of whatever phone I’m carrying.
Go Bag July 2014
Pretty much immediately after posting in March, I started swapping bags fairly frequently; between my Powerbag, a backpack, and eventually to my original Timbuk2 Commute. Because of that, I ended up pairing down a lot. It was too much of a pain in the butt to move everything I had been carrying.
Go Bag March 2014
I changed a bunch of stuff about my daily Go Bag (what I take to work every day). So I figured it was time for an update. The biggest change is that I swapped out my Timbuk2 bag for a Powerbag. The Powerbag has a built-in battery pack for charging mobile devices. I added this, because I built a LibraryBox, and the Powerbag can power the LibraryBox. I also got a new laptop; trading in my Macbook Air for a Thinkpad. It’s great to be running Linux again.
EDC 03/2014
I obsess about the stuff I carry on my person even more than the stuff I carry around in my bag. This is what I currently carry.
You can see older iterations here, if there are any.
- Handkerchief
- Phone (Nexus 5 w/EFF sticker)
- Saddleback Leather Wallet
- Calling Cards
- Part of the EFF sticker back; reads: Say it out loud: “I want an attorney” and “I invoke my right to remain silent.”
- Credit card-sized folding phone stand (been carrying it for years; can’t remember where it came from)
- Keychain
- TEC P-7 clip (I LOVE this thing. It’s all the advantage of carrying a lanyard on your keys w/o looking like a goon while it hangs out of your pocket.)
- S-biner
- Swiss Army Knife w/pen & flashlight
- Ear plugs in a cash stash
- Keys
- USB Stick
- Happiness opener
- Watch
- Notebook; reads: PLEASE Do the right thing
- Fisher Space Pen
- Chapstick
Go Bag Dec 2013
I obsess about stuff, what I carry around every day, and also what I carry when I travel. The goal is to carry as little stuff and weight as possible, but without losing any of the amenities of home.
Use a “Cashstash” Keychain Safe to Carry Earplugs
About a year and a half ago, a real loud-mouth got hired at my job and sat right behind me. I bought a box of earplugs at the pharmacy near the office, and started using them heavily. Then I started wishing I had them on-hand more often.
My Workspace – Work
A few days ago I posted my Home workspace. Here is my Work workspace:

LifeHacker started a Flickr pool dedicated to readers posting their workspaces. Like the Go-Bag pool, I decided to participate. So here’s my desk:
