savings time

today i downloaded the Google Web Accelerator. it's free! it adds a little box to your internet explorer bar that tells you how much time you've saved by surfing things faster.

so far i've saved 1.8 minutes. at this rate, every week i will have 12.6 minutes of extra time-- every year i will get a free 10.92 hours. by the time i'm 70 years old, i'll have saved around 18 days.

i like to think that it's an investment in my future.

but being an american, albeit a dissatisfied and not-proud one, i'm already tempted to start spending this time savings. i was born to be a consumer, it's in my freakin' nature! i have my eye on all sorts of ways to start spending. hell, i might even borrow against my savings for a big-ticket waste of time.

but maybe once i dig myself into a time-credit hole, i'll start surfing more and more in an attempt to save even more time?

IT'S A TRAP! don't do it! nothing in life is free, it really is true! Google's Web Accelerator is a devious product of the man.
