I spend quite a chunk of my time online. Still I never really put together what I want from it. It’s too soon for my next blogging milestone and escape into number-crunching of stats.
So what are my goals online for next year?
- Learn the new tools I found recently (Yahoo Pipes , PostRank , NewsGator , etc) and find some more.
- Build some bridges of communication to people around, since starting this blog my Internet experience became more social.
- Learn to drop services, sites and blogs I no longer enjoy sooner instead of sticking with them to the last.
- Learn to turn it off and go to sleep instead of staring at screen when I don’t really need anything online.
- Stick with managing this blog and see where it gets me.
Not too deep, eh? :) Still keep it simple principle rarely fails me.

I hope my blog doesn’t fall into #3 too soon… ;) I’m getting myself prepared to write my new year resolution. But wait! when was the last time I wrote my resolution..

@Yan
You are doing good so far. :)
Oh, I totally go under number 4! When you just sit and click on all the same pages for the hundredth time this day…. Refreshing bloglines/google reader to see if anything new has happened… MUST. GO. NOW. :D
@Klemen
Yeah, sitting and refreshing stuff is just evil. :( I hate services/sites that require refreshing. Need to install some client for twitter – refreshing that thing can really eat attention.
I definiately need to follow you on #4. To be honest, the internet can be kind of addicting.
@Denise
It’s interesting how people relate to “less Internet” as Internet goal. :) I don’t consider Internet especially addicting (for me computing in general is addiction) but it’s easy to miss a point when tool becomes bad habit.
Welcome to blog and thanks for your comment. :)
Well, at least your addicted to something isn’t harmful for you. It can benefit you.
@Denise
Yeah, there are certainly worse things to be addicted to. :) Still excessive addiction to anything is hardly good so restrain is needed at times.
