Trying to organise my tech life.

So this is a large, overwhelming thing for me - trying to decide and sort out what systems I want to use for various technical stuff. This is mostly life-organisation and communication stuff, though there's a bit of coding stuff in here too. It comes with a big side of "trying to reduce my dependence on Google services".
I occasionally use IFTTT as the glue between services, so I would be interested in stuff that can be manipulated that way. I'm also not averse to things that might require a bit of commandline wrangling, scripting, coding, or technical playing about to set up. (Obviously I love when stuff "just works", but I'm also not too scared of doing a bit of technical work.)
So, on to the technical stuff! This will get long, so I'm sticking it under a cut.
I am currently on OSX 10.5 and considering upgrading to 10.7, or perhaps going radical and nuking OSX in favour of either Ubuntu or Debian. Unfortunately Mountain Lion doesn't support my fairly-ancient hardware.
( All the tech in the world! )
