Timeshifting: Cram More Into Life
jimharris writes "The VCR started it - and then the DVR improved it, so now I want to apply the concept of timeshifting in other ways. I've always wanted an audio cassette player that worked like a VCR so I could listen to more radio talk shows. This morning's NY Times stirred my interest with After TiVo, Radio Rewound about a MP3 device that does just that. Better yet, is Replay Radio - software that is more flexible and you can download the results to a portable player.
I already use Audible.com to squeeze in more books in my life, by listening, rather than reading. I've completed 8 unabridged books in two months just by carrying around my Otis player when I get dressed in the morning, driving to and from work, doing housework, or when I exercise.
Now I'm wondering how I can timeshift even more."
Men are that they might have joy, not to be so crammed with information that they lose their sense of beauty and wonder.
if you really want to learn about time management go to a hard college(how does engineering sound for ya, you wanted a new job anyways). at college you have so many great oppotunitues to do everything, you are bound to find things to keep you busy 24 hours a day. slightly off topic, mabey, but you he wants ways that he can make himself more productive... its very simple... just SLEEP LESS im a college student and i live on less than 5 hours of sleep a night 24 hrs - 5 hrs = 19 WAKING Hours you know how much stuff you can do in 19 hours? say 5 hours of sleep aint enough for ya? mabey the first awake hour will be kinda rough, but after some caffeine you will be all set. example... 2 days a week, i get up at 6am, play some CS till 7, then grab breakfast and head to class for 8. Im wide awake by that point, its great. (added benefit is the network is much less congested at 6 in the mornin :-)... oooh the ping times)
