Guess what...It's TUESDAY! Which isn't normally exciting, aside from Taco Tuesdays, but starting every Tuesday, I'll post my favorite articles here with a little side note about them. If you don't love 'em, then you are welcome to leave today and go to Wednesday Walk Aways!
jk I don't know what that is. But here we go.
New websites discovered:
KIBIN: A good business idea? Or a form of literary incompetency? Editing services are becoming easier and easier to find.
Verbling: Language learners should be stoked about this one! Chat Roulette has met Fluent Future. On this site you can talk to a foreign stranger in their language for 5 minutes, then speak in English for 5. You'll get cut off after that, but still allows for more than small talk. I've tried it three times and loved it. Always exciting to see who you will talk to.
Rescue Time: Ever wanted to see how you spend your time online? Rescue time tracks every place you go online and gives you a nice bar graph result revealing just how much time you waste on Facebook (or other sites.) Good for self-tracking and accountability.
Articles worth reading:
Want to eat healthier? Food substitutes provide a solution with little change to your diet.
Also, an article on eating. Ever thought of eating philosophically? Me either. A good 10-15 minute read. Also some interesting research on self-control as a finite resource.
American Liposuction doctor flees to Columbia after being sued for using fat for powering his car. Weird weird story from 2008. I'd love to meet the guy.
The internet CAN help you be more productive. (at least in 10 minute increments.)
Will Smith getting a divorce?! Nope. That's how rumors start.
Decision Fatigue: It's no joke. Making too many decisions can cause you to take shortcuts and make poorer decisions in the future, or no decisions at all. It's part of new studies on ego depletion.
