If your goal is to be mindful, to taste the food you are putting into your body, to understand the effect your words will have before you speak, to be aware of others and their problems, to be calm and present in the moment, you will have already put limits on your use of the internet.

If your goal is to be distracted and/or entertained, to have your views confirmed, to preach to an imaginary choir, the internet is your place.

Know this, though, there is nothing easier to ignore than something on the internet.   Of all forms of communication, e-mail is probably the easiest to ignore.  Like falling off a log, baby.  Yeah, print out that email you sent me, I still never saw it, or if I did, so what?  You never answered that one I forwarded about serotonin levels in decorticated cats.
