How To Do 10 Things (At Least Slightly) Better

how to do things better

 

Friends!
We’re knee-deep into summer and I’m going to take the smallest of breathers. I’ve got two weeks of travel coming up, along with my birthday, and launching a big ‘ol offering. I’m going to go to the lake, eat one metric ton of raspberries, and remember what the stars look like outside the reach of street lights.
We’ll be back to business as usual with Web Time Wasters on Sunday and there’s some exciting stuff coming in August. Till then, I dug through my archives and found some of my best how-tos and tutorials. Have a dig through ’em and I’ll see you next week!

 

Looking through these, it’s painfully obvious how much I like lists and parenthesis, isn’t it?

If you have any how-to requests, leave ’em in the comments!

    Traveling on a budget is quite fun! I normally use couchsurfing or airbnb. Although you don't always find a good place it depends a lot on the time when you are traveling. When I was going to Las Vegas this summer I had to book a room in Las Vegas because everything else was already taken!

    I love this list. Pinning it immediately!

    I enjoyed the attention span article in particular. I used to have such a great attention span but then along came university and facebook and wham-bam, it disappeared. I'd never looked at attention as muscle before but it's a fabulous concept.

    There are some fabulous tips in there. In fact, look! I managed to keep writing this comment without getting distracted 😉
