Addicted?
I started wondering if I had a problem earlier this week when I was sorely tempted to log on at 3:00 AM after giving my daughter her meds, but it was confirmed today. You know you have a problem when you start dreaming about the computer. No kidding, I woke up to images of my monitor this AM! Therefore, I have made a real effort to stay away from the this thing today. We have a huge festival going on in town and my garden has been badly neglected due to a combination of wet weather and my new addiction, so there has been plenty to do.
Thing 2 in the SLJ ATN project was to set up an RSS reader using Google Reader or NetVibes. Since I had already set up a Google Reader Account, I thought I’d experiment with NetVibes to compare the two. The rest of the family is getting a little grumpy about my computer time, so I haven’t gotten as far as actually trying NetVibes, but I did come across an excellent blog that compares the two. It is written much better than I could have done, so I’ll just share the link. Thank you Mermaid Librarian!

Oh goodness I know what you mean about addiction. I realised that I am on the computer entirely too much when a few months ago my internet was down but I still spent all my time at it… playing solitaire. I literally started playing solitaire in my sleep. It was unpleasant and motivating – I got through three books that week.
