Facebook detox

Posted by & filed under Technology.

I’m proud to say that for the entire month of August I never logged in on Facebook, not even once over a period of 31 full days. Maybe it’s not such a great achievement and maybe I did it in the least busy month of the year, but to an internet addict like I am,… Read more »

Ok, July has gone and with it my first serious 30 day challenge. Now it’s time for a quick review and a few fords about the new challenge for August. Two were the main tasks: no sugars and no dairy products. Let’s get it straight: for the dairy part, it’s been quite a good ride,… Read more »

30 day challenge

Posted by & filed under Life.

I’ve known Matt Cutts for a while, and I love his habit of challenging himself every month by doing something that can basically improve his life for the next 30 days.

Web filter for Android

Posted by & filed under Technology.

These days I’m trying to cut down my Facebook addiction, and let’s be honest: everybody has it. Visiting it only on week-ends, i.e. only on Saturday and Sunday, would already be a great achievement. On my Mac, the geekiest way to prevent access to it is by blocking the URL inside the /etc/hosts file, adding… Read more »

2012, year of change

Posted by & filed under Life.

I really wish to myself that 2012 be my change and transformation year, in every aspect. It will be the year I (finally) get my degree, the year I hope to leave Italy once and forever – London being my obsession since at least a lustrum – and also the year I hope to bulk… Read more »
