Life Hack Father Danny O’Brien
LifeHacker interviews Danny O’Brien who himself coined the phrase life hacks:
“Life hacks popped out of an ongoing discussion I‚Äôd been having with people about ‚Äúsecret software‚Äù - the scripts that geeks write for themselves to get them through the day.You usually don‚Äôt hear about these mini-programs, because they‚Äôre not the sort of thing that you either build up into commercial software, or spend the effort tidying up to release as open source. They‚Äôre just too personal to the coder who wrote them.”
