I think he's wrong on ToDo lists. Trying to keep everything you have to do in your head reduces the available cycles you have left for productive work. This is the main idea behind Getting Things Done.

I think news.yc is truly on the forefront of procrastination technology. It's the ultimate in infotainment, because you aren't getting anything done but yet there is something about it that makes you feel not completely unproductive.

I think this is a good principle for evil web startups to incorporate. Trying to get the same entertainment and addictiveness of WoW, but with less of the feeling of wasting your life (even though you are).
