This is a really inspiring article without being saccharine. Well done, Adam.

I've never been able to keep anything as unread after clicking "mark all as read." It's a feature I've wished for since the beginning.

Is there anyone who works in an office environment who actually does 40 hours of work a week? I can't think of a job I've ever had where I did more than about 25 hours of real, actual work. I think 5-6 hour days with 4-6 weeks of vacation would be pretty ideal for me.

iPhone 4S question: What kind of case should I get?

Like two days ago, I was thinking about how I store my natural peanut butter upside down and how it would be a good suggestion for Lifehacker. It really does make stirring it easier.

Okay, for the sake of this conversation, let's say I dump it into the compost instead of the garbage. What do I do with remaining leaves in the tea ball? Is down the drain okay or will it eventually build up?

I love loose leaf tea, and I always use it with a tea ball. My problem is I don't have a garbage disposal, so it makes cleaning out the tea ball kind of difficult. Is there an easier way, or should I be safe to dump as much as I can in the garbage can and wash the rest down the sink?

Funny, but I meant walking around the inside of the house. I guess walking outside for others to see is a way to take it to the next level.

I put gloves on my feet and walk around the house. Seriously, it's impossible to do that and stay sour.

There was a similar thread on Lifehacker last year. It even mentioned Music for Airports.

Last time I checked, you can't try out a Kindle at Target—they have a demo model out but it just rotates through pre-programmed screens and isn't usable.

Anyone else's memory usage in Firefox skyrocket after using the new Pandora? Firefox became almost unusable for me and I had to shut it down.

Hm, that sounds like it'd look a bit gross. How about adding a wire or horizontal wooden slats?

I love the idea of using a ladder as a bookshelf, but I'd be worried the books would fall off the back.

Spotify used to be the best, but with other services like MOG and Grooveshark offering nice online interfaces, I find little use for Spotify these days.

Yikes.

What kind of desk is it?

What's a good digital piano with a sustain pedal and weighted keys? Should I go the new or used route?
