Did you try to add images? I'm not sure if I see any. I like that HOSTS file idea though.

Interesting idea! I like it! I think the reason I keep the reminders on my phone is that I can ignore it. But I will definitely look into this idea for other tasks that are much more time-based. Think the same functionality is achievable on a Mac using Applescripts?

Here's a little tip for getting over Facebook:

...Grammar. If you're going to troll for spelling errors, make sure you spell "grammar" properly.

I rinse off after the bath as well. Baths are rare for that reason.

Apple always finds new ways to innovate. Instead of brainwashing, they brain dry.

I shower before I take a bath. Sounds counter-intuitive to some, but a bath for me is not how I get clean. It's how I relax. Also, if you think sitting i na tepid pool of your own filth is bad, most of us sleep on a stagnant layer of our own dead skin-cells. Yeah. Pleasant dreams.

My problem with iCloud is that it doesn't seem like much of anything at all. I don't feel that it actually *does* anything in particular.

Another benefit to green tea is that it is much less acidic. I used to use coffee before a workout, and after a few weeks, I found the acid reflux too much to bear. Now I alternate between green tea and coffee. Works great!

I recommend www.GoodReads.com as a great way to track what you've read, find other books, and discuss the books with like-minded individuals. Really cool site.

This research makes an assumption: that the purpose of acting kindly toward others is to get them to stop treating you poorly.

In the same place ... "knowing" not "known".

Am I the only person who looked at the first sign and took a few seconds to figure out what was happening? At first I thought the man had spontaneously grown a second torso. Then I thought ... well, I'm sure you can figure out what I thought.

My personal beef with "Docs.Com" is the size of the ribbon.

Something to be aware of: if you use a program like "Quicksilver" and have grown accustomed to opening applications with your shortcut... then be aware that this works trick best by clicking on an application in your dock. Quicksilver might close before you get the chance to use it.

They need to time how fast people read the "difficult" fonts vs. the "easy" fonts. We already know that when you're forced to read a little more slowly, you remember more.

A small suggestion... the background music after a point made me want to punch myself in the ear.

@jupigare: You can even look into storing your hard drive in a lockbox at a bank. Take it out once a month, do a backup again.

@Apoc28: Then why is their laptop running Chrome OS?
