Time to detox!

I read about the concept of a digital detox
over at Linar Studio.
I thought this was something that might be good for me to do during the first month of this new year.
I see no reason to re-invent the wheel so am going to use the successful format I spotted at Linar.

Monday - social networking detox. Facebook, twitter and flickr. Delete inactive friends (or in fact people who aren't 'friends' at all, but rather people you once knew vaguely!)

Tuesday - Google reader. Unsubscribe to blogs that you just flick past or that don't inspire you when you read them (or in fact the ones you flick past and don't even read!)

Wednesday - desktop. Tidy it!

Thursday - address book/ contacts. Declutter and organise.

Friday - calendar. Organise it and clear it. Check it is up to date.

Saturday - Downloads. Delete anything not used - especially e-books and digi elements!

Sunday - Email. Purge and organise.

BIG PROJECTS to do through week:

Photos - get printed.
Digi files - back up.
Bookmarks - OMG! Sort them out!!
Apps - delete unused.
My documents - purge, organise.
BACKUP

Wow! Lots to do!!!!! :0) It'll be worth it though!

You've got a great list going there! Hope you get it all accomplished! I may be borrowing some of your ideas. :)

That is such a good idea. I will be heading over to the Linar Studio to read that post (I go there anyway, but missed that one).

Good luck with the rest of your list and thanks for sharing.
