Or, you could just eat more green, leafy things, and move about more.

I'd love, love, love to see an article on how to convert a crappy, old office chair to something with at least some ergonomic support. Ideally done for under $100. I'd also love a unicorn, so, if you could get right on those.

Zotero's done this for eons, can pull citations from library websites, worldcat, and other sources, and integrates reasonably well with word, OO, and other software.

I'm currently studying for oral exams in a History PhD. It's roughly a book a day in reading, and a few pages of notes. Pomodorro has been fantastic for this. I'd advise, however, ditching the entire computer altogether if possible. Unless what you do requires computation, turn off the monitor and do it by hand.

Or, you could do it slowly:
