You might say that Matt Cutts is the geek's geek. He provides a "public face" for Google - a contact & feed for issues of web site search optimization, as well as blogging on technology issues generally.
Anyhoo he has recently been setting himself a series of 30 day challenges: June: I didn't respond to email after 10 p.m. and I read the New Testament of the Bible July: I tried to use only cloud-based software August: I took a picture a day "September: This month, I plan to meditate or quietly reflect for 15 minutes a day. I started today, and quickly learned that quieting my thoughts is pretty hard. I lasted about 2.5 minutes before so many to-do items were bouncing around in my brain that I had to take a break and write a bunch down before restarting. But I did enjoy my first session. I also managed to get my pulse rate pretty low. Now I have to avoid the trap of seeing how low I can get my pulse to go and just enjoy the quiet. Feel free to join me in my challenge this month–at only 15 minutes a day, it's a pretty good way to try out a 30 day challenge!" http://tinyurl.com/34fc9vc
