My name is Leo Babauta, I’m married with six kids, I live on Guam, I’m a writer and a runner and a vegetarian, and the owner of Zen Habits. I’m also the author of a new best-selling book, “The Power of Less: The Fine Art of Limiting Yourself to the Essentials … in Work and in Life“. If you want Zen Habits’ philosophy in a handy little volume, please buy the book.
Zen Habits is one of the Top 100 blogs on the Internet, and covers: achieving goals, productivity, being organized, GTD, motivation, eliminating debt, saving, getting a flat stomach, eating healthy, simplifying, living frugal, parenting, happiness, and successfully implementing good habits.
The Study Hacks blog teaches students how to do (very) well without burning out. It preaches the idea that you should: do less; do better; and know why. The site is run by Cal Newport, MIT graduate student and author of the popular advice guides How to Become a Straight-A Student and How to Win at College.
"Work smarter, not harder."
Lectures are boring and inefficient. Long hours spent studying hand-written notes is very 1994. Anyone graduating today needs to know not how to operate a computer, but when. The fault is both with the students and the teachers. HackCollege is changing education. HackCollege is educating the students of the world about effective, open source software, putting techno-political arguments in everyday language, and creating a cult of "Students 2.0." If we can change the way 1 percent of college students and faculty in the world view education and technology, we've done our job.
Cramberry helps you memorize things using flash cards. Create cards online, and study them. Cramberry tracks your progress, and helps you focus on the cards you're having trouble on.
With a sea of information coming at us from all directions, how do we sift out the misinformation and bogus claims, and get to the truth?
