Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 READY-MADE RESOLUTIONS FOR INTERNETers - 2001 * Stop neglecting children; at least learn their names & birthdays. * Read all of the mail from all of the groups I've subscribed to. * Learn that it's OK to turn the computer off. No email is that important, that it can't wait until you log-on. * Limit my subscriptions of e-mail jokes to a maximum of fifty. * See if there's anything on those 5 1/4 " disks really worth saving. * Back-up 50 gig hard drive weekly; well, maybe at least monthly. * Not rush to any ftp site as soon as I hear of a new Beta. * Insist that all " ten best " lists be strictly limited to ten. * Not buy magazines with AOL disks just to get another 1.44Mb disk. * Answer Snail Mail with the same enthusiasm & promptness as e-mail. * Spend less than two hours a day on the Web; on new sites anyway. OK, OK, less than two hours on porn sites. * Promise when I hear " Where do you want to go today? " I won't laugh. * Think of a password other than " password " to use on web sites. * Try to keep " Hot " Bookmarks under 1,000 entries. * Remember people who use low baud and MHz rates have feelings too. * Stop using : ) in all interoffice memos. * Start deleting stuff I haven't used in over 5 years, or at least burn them to CD-R. * Engage in small talk & not mention computers for at least 10 minutes. * Try to think up some new resolutions before next year.
