i've also found an inverse relationship between blog reading and hacking, both in myself and others. i'd almost take off points if a new hire was too much into online procrastination or vanity blogging.

certainly there are developers i respect who are fairly ocd when it comes to reading hn and reddit. it's just stuff to do when chillin'; to each his own.

big ups to building tools and open source communities, though. getting things done is the awesome.
