Pardon My Dust (On Many Levels)
After what feels like decades of neglect, I’m happy to say I’ll be returning to occasional 53tabs posting this week.
Easy tiger: no promises on volume one way or another. Still the same slacker; just trying a little harder, y’know? Exactly.
Oooo, shiny
Anyhow, I’m tweaking or adding a few site features over the next few days.
So, bear with me, and thanks – both in advance and in retrospect – for your patience with me. This week I shall mercilessly pound my Wordpress install with a very large crescent wrench until interesting words fall out and land with a productive THUD in your RSS reader. Fingers crossed.
[Also, “Hi.” I’ve missed you.]

to make a change
Two stories that I know I should be learning from:
- Paul Graham on overcoming distractions. By creating an Internet-Only computer.
Quote:
I now leave wifi turned off on my main computer except when I need to transfer a file or edit a web page, and I have a separate laptop on the other side of the room that I use to check mail or browse the web. (Irony of ironies, it’s the computer Steve Huffman wrote Reddit on. When Steve and Alexis auctioned off their old laptops for charity, I bought them for the Y Combinator museum.)My rule is that I can spend as much time online as I want, as long as I do it on that computer. And this turns out to be enough.
