Good luck on your fast buddy, and were you going to update it here? I would really like to know how well you did and did it actually help you limit the usage of the net. I think I will have to agree with some of the other commenters, I would absolutely die without any television because, well I just love it! Anyways good luck I hope it will help you!

Good one:)
Yep, they are tough. But I think if I were recommending an information diet to people, I’d tell them to avoid the media, but read my blog.

Self-serving? You bet’cha. But then again, you can at least take action on many of the posts on my blog. I don’t know what action I could take by reading about the accidental $5 million dollar withdrawal from a bank that I saw in the headlines the other day.

I think that’s the main point of an information diet. Finding information that allows you to take action.

Best,
Carlon

Man. Information diets are tough. If I was more successful, I wouldn’t be here, now would I?

I know what you mean. I’ll have an update up in a bit. But it’s funny that I got the latest information from five minutes headline news.

I just can’t go read any commentary.

That kind of hurts. And of course, I do miss “The Onion”.

Have fun doing the fast, Carlton.

Not for me.

I would die without MSNBC and the political news.

I would spend my time on the phone calling people to find out the latest news!
