3 tools to maintain work-life balance
While working, one task can lead to another to another… and so on. Especially, if you are working on the web, with a few clicks you can be working on something entirely different and get pulled in into the whirlwind of things.
Today, we have listed out 3 tools that will help you regain your sanity and help you become a little bit more productive, so finishing work on time is not a struggle everyday.
Google Reader - Checking out blogs is a daily routine for a lot of people. Aggregating good blogs to your Google Reader (or any other popular readers), gives you a quick way of skimming through new articles and presents all your popular blogs under one roof. Just like how you get your news delivered via the newspaper everyday.
Bookmarking Toolbars - Interesting links and articles can become distracting especially if you see them while working on something else. Instead of getting distracted and clicking on them, it’s a better idea to bookmark them for later. Most bookmarking websites like Delicious, Digg have bookmarking toolbars, which lets you save articles in just one click so you can come back to it whenever you want and from any computer.
Online Photo editing apps - Graphics are sometimes needed to accompany an article, blog post or updating your profile on the web. Editing them in right proportions, making small changes can become time consuming and tedious if you have to use bulky softwares like Photoshop. This can be easily avoided by using online photo editing tools like Piknik. You do not even need to register for making minor changes.
You should probably give these a try because it will not only save you time but also allow you to organize your work life better. Feel free again!
