Bit rough. I’m doing the job of about 3 people this week as colleagues on leave. Lots of questions I don’t know the answer to and trying to catch the important things and let other stuff go. Time-boxing the day as much as possible and trying to draw strict lines between work and home.

Forced myself to leave the office and take a walk for lunch.

Hopefully I can sleep and not worry too much before it’s rinse repeat, tomorrow.

How do you ‘de-google’ your life? Are you just talking about ceasing Google accounts, services and avoiding the use of Google software, or is it more than that?

I third Memmy, but the amount of times I’ve gone to close a comment thread and it’s brought up the new comment dialog. And I can’t rotate an image to landscape, had no idea how often I did that. Still, old Apollo habits die hard. It’s a great contender.

One of my favourites is newsnow.co.uk.

Browse with an adblocker. It’s brilliant for aggregating news from a huge variety of sources, and the facets/filters allow for some powerful searches.

Please visit it. I don’t want it to die because I love it so much.

Mine is that photos should ideally be printed, not stored in a cloud somewhere that you have to pay for forever or you lose them.
