Here's how to balance work & social media addiction!

Rob Diana shares his tips on how to balance work and social media addiction!

  • 5:45AM – Before going to work, have a cup of coffee and spend 30-45 minutes checking social media:
    • Read news and blogs in Google Reader
    • Review Twitter for replies/mentions and various saved searches
    • If you are a blogger, check your stats and make notes for your next posts
  • 7:00AM – Once you are at work, do a final check of the same sites you checked before work
  • 12:00PM – While eating lunch, do a full scan of your social sites for about 30 minutes:
    • Review Google Reader
    • Review Twitter for replies/mentions and various saved searches
    • Scan FriendFeed for interesting posts and comments
  • 6:00PM – Once you return home and have eaten dinner, you can dedicate a full 2 hours to social media interaction. I find 2 hours to be a good limit for me as I still can have time for my family.

    That schedule is not realistic.....

    8pm - time to spend time with family!

    8.30 pm - BIG smile :) 30 mins with family is an achievement!

    8.31 pm - tweet and update blogs, in the pretext of doing work/sch projects.

    10. 30 pm - bf or gf call, lie to them that you had a busy day and youn need to rest. If married,pretend to have migraine and just say "not tonight dear" and continue to tweet under the blanket!

    wow, do we have to get up and be ready before 5.45 am?

    Two hours is kinda lots actually cos by the time we return home it's like 8pm and then you know you actually have to get up by 5am to do the same thing again the next day???
