Many years ago I visited a large (junk) news site several times every day (aftonbladet.se - largest site in Sweden). I asked myself why, but couldn't tell. So I started writing down what articles I had read that had been worth ready. Not much it turned out. So I stopped visiting it, and don't regret it. But it was really hard to break the habit, like an addiction.

I am similar boat these days. Every 10 minutes I am doing spending reading something on mobile, 8 minutes will be on Facebook.

Yesterday, I deleted the app and found myself multiple times missing that. So, yeah, it's a habit hard to break. And now, I try to spend same amount of time reading some light book on my kindle app.

It's like a month that I uninstalled the facebook app, because it didn't provide enough value. I didn't noticed the correlation until now, but last week I started carrying with me my old kindle touch during my commute. It just happened and I'm at Chapter 11 of Crystal Society [http://crystal.raelifin.com/].
