Enough
- gunyoki 17y agoEnough with some random putz with a blog telling me how to live. There are many flavors of Kool-Aid; this one has Seth Godin on the box.
- NathanKP 17y agoI find it interesting that of late there had been such a surge in articles about information overload. It is definitely a lash back that will probably continue to get stronger as the amount of information we are exposed to increases.
- BigDamnDeal 17y agoI made an extra OPML file to follow my 5,000 favorite information overload blogs.
- unalone 17y agoI'd hope so. I love the ocean of high-quality content available to the world now, but too many people are content to jump out and drown in it. Solutions are required.
- mcantor 17y agoI have to be honest; while I enjoyed this article, I mainly upvoted it for the author's use of the phrase "shrimp-induced torpor," which elicited giggling from me in turn.

- dkarl 17y agoIf you click on a link titled "Enough," you are definitely suffering from compulsive overload, unless you really have time to open every link that makes the first page of HN. How about an informative title to help us filter our reading?
- icey 17y agoHmmm. I look at the title, the number of upvotes, the URL and the commentary. I think coming from a well-known URL you can get away with it.
- fendale 17y agoIf it hadn't been from 43folders,which I know is Merlin Manns site I wouldn't have clicked through. He has some good stuff on there, especially inboxzero.
- brent 17y agoHow did this guy compute 24,000?
