I select text and have osx's speech to text read it to me while i'm reading. That way I can read way more and way faster.

All your friends do on FB is post cat videos? ..and this is Facebook's fault? Ha. Maybe it's time to make some new friends?!

You'll eventually get over being "too cool" for Facebook. It's ok, I did it too. We'll welcome you back when you change your mind. Life is too short to worry so much about these things.
We're you the person that also made those last.fm posters? If so props to you.

I've found a great way reduce the amount of news and media that you consume is to travel.

Travel forces you to be offline most the time. You don't watch tv or see "news" much at all. After a while you don't even miss it and actually prefer life without it.

At least that;s what I've been doing for the last three years. Works pretty well.

You can't make up your own mind?

Where the data comes from (Outside.in) - the Radar part of their site already sends e-mail so we didn't do the e-mail part. You should be able to get an RSS feed there too
