Losing Firefox has caused some major shifts in online behavior, because it was my main gateway both online as well as for use of some offline tools. I'm still adjusting to them, casting about for some substitutes and options that I've lost in the change.

But it's also causing changes in areas that aren't directly affected.

One is the use of this site to do more of my mini-blogging. There'll be less social-media sharing from here, since the world already sees too much of me that way, as it is.

So if you really want to keep up with me, sign up to this site, as well as my main blog. Here, you'll get all the small stuff; there the bigger items.

That's all for now!

I've abandoned #FireFox, using Safari and Opera at the moment, but I don't know if they'll really serve me. Am missing some key functions. This has shaken up much of what I do on the Internet. As well as other well-worn neural paths. I need to update my OS, but that will have to wait. In the meantime. ...

Over on ZenHabits, Leo Babauta gives five tipos on "How to Keep Habits Going During Travel." All are good. I especially like this one:

Try to do the minimum. Keeping with your flexible mind: if you normally exercise for 30 minutes, try 5-10 if you’re pressed for time or low on energy. If you normally meditate for 20 minutes, try 2 or 5 minutes. It’s better to keep it going with the minimum, than to only do it if you have the time/energy for the full session.
