OVERLOAD!!!

by Ben Curtis

Do you ever suffer from technological overload? I’ve been trying to keep up with all the latest developments in the world of tech: RSS, Web 2.0, google / yahoo / microsoft wars, diggs, boing boings and endless other newer and cooler ideas and blog-based knowledge banks.

But I think I am about to overload. This is starting to drive me crazy! It started with a casual reading of Scripting news and the odd browse around Flickr. Now I have a score of RSS feeds on my (admittedly great) on-line aggregator, Rojo, and thousands of unread news items reminding me of the futitily of it all. I simply can’t keep up with all the above whilst trying to come up with an equally cool world-rousing web invention all at the same time (because yes, of course I’d love to dream up the next million dollar homepage or frappr phenomenon.)

Sometimes the internet is a curse as much as it is a blessing. What’s a twenty-first century guy to do ? (Help!) Maybe a weekend away from the PC would be a good start!

Oh I’m still digging. This is interesting, and interview with the Digg.com creators, if you like that kind of thing…

I agree with idiot, but then again Jim W has a point.

Perhaps everyone could stand in a big circle and punch the person on the left in the balls.
