The annoying thing about the web is if you're plugged into the right resources, awesome stuff DOES keep showing up with the next click! As a basic example, how many times do I check out del.icio.us/popular and find an awesome website? Almost every time!

The thing that's kept me ground is seriously, shutting the stuff off once and a while. Let my email box pile. Probably not the best strategy (people waiting on me for stuff, etc.) but the only one that keeps me sane. That, and remember the wise words of GTD: "Is this actionable?" Such a profound thing, and almost nobody gets it. How much information do you consume with the purpose of actually USING IT, vs "wow this is interesting"? Realize NOW that if you're reading information just for the heck of it, then the web is no different then TV. Start thinking about how you can apply what you've learned to DO SOMETHING.
