A Bunch of Random Links
March 11th, 2008If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I need a better system for this. In an effect not to get sidetracked from whatever is currently on my plate, I will put sites that I want come back to in a folder. Unfortunately I don’t have a specific schedule for getting to this list of links. So before this list becomes unmanageable, it’s time to spit them out, again. It also is a excuse not to write a real post when what I had prepared just isn’t quite right yet.

Get Things Done

- How to Find the Right Work-Life Balance: 6 Steps
Well, it was quite a bit longer than expected. That was about half of what I had. I deleted the rest for the same reason that I keep all the notebooks that I write ideas in but rarely go back in time more than 10 days or so. Life goes on and the changes that come with it are much more striking than those noticed a few days ago.
Plus, theoretically, anything you have seen or read stays in your head somehow, coloring future research and ideas. The act of writing or of finding has done it’s job. I have learned at least of the existence of more options and ways of doing things.
Now if only I could do the same with my email inbox every once and a while. Just delete the whole thing or maybe cause Thunderbird to crash by "accident". But I am actually getting better at estimating how much time it takes to do things and how much time I actually have to do them.

FYI, it looks like BloggrZ’s actually been around for awhile, but they never took off. I tried the service and the “expolorer” button doesn’t work. Probably a dead site.
Thanks for the heads up.
Nice to know I am not the only with that problem. I probably have over 100 sites bookmarked that I originally meant to get back to when I had the time. Unfortunately I still have my stumble button which really does keep me from going back. Instead I am addicted to what might be around the corner.
I love the post. The opening made me feel better about my own lack of follow up. Thank you.

I’ve heard the argument that maybe I should focus more and minimize the amount of information I try to process. On the other hand, a piece of everything seems to stick in my head. Some of the things that I have only browsed come back to me at the right times. I like that. Things get stuck in there anyway. Might as well be stuff I can use.
wow, thanks for the great links. The making money with your blog articles im really interested in. Im currently looking to do some monetization.
