This would have more effect on me if I had a Twitter account. Or Facebook. Or Google+. Or if my phone "rang" more than a couple times per day, if that. Or if I had notifications for my email.
Seriously, I can't stand those. It's not willpower; it's a physical aversion to being interrupted.
Oh, and to relax I like either to kill the lights and listen to some Jazz, or to watch people on the street. Reading stuff isn't relaxing.
But what prompted you to cancel all those accounts you were born with? And how can you stand not knowing how each of your acquaintances is currently distracting themselves from their reality? Maybe you have some blogs or twitstreams I could subscribe to that would help me lead a simpler life?
I think the original site says more about the author (and those that find it insightful) than anything else. You're getting possibly multiple 'notifications' per minute and it just now occurs to you that it might be suboptimal? Sigh.
