Ask HN: How do you deal with the information overload?
Some weeks ago I was feeling overwhelmed so I started an information diet. I feel much better now. After some thought I've decided to limit my news intake to:
HACKER NEWS - top 10 articles of the day and javascript related articles:
http://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/
https://www.hnwatcher.com/
TWITTER - once a day, no tweeting and following only 10 accounts.
FACEBOOK and MAIL - once a day.
SKYPE - just by appointment.
How do you deal with the problem of information overload?
