By 2004, I was an expert web surfer. I had memorized a sequence of web site addresses that I could cycle through, one after another, in rapid succession. I would do this once every hour or so as a quick mental pick me up to help get through the work day.
To illustrate this point, the image at the top of this post is a screenshot of my complete browser history for today, taken at 2 PM. (Note: I doctored the list slightly to remove redundant entries for a given visit to a given site.)

I have been tracking the number of these focus blocks in a notebook, but I was beginning to struggle. I began to procrastinate (mostly surfing the Internet), and the number of focus blocks I did continued to decrease. Last week I decided to schedule these focus blocks at precise times.
I agree with your point. When I thought about this, I understood, that generally the surfing habit originates from pre-rss era. Sibscribing to email newsletters is a disaster, they clutter inbox in no time, and it is easier to surf on a likely circle.
I mainly work with texts at home. So I decided to use my workstation only for job surfing. When I need to recreate I go to another room and take my tablet to surf and read RSS, and occasionally give some comment, like this one.
I also need those 10 mins off about once an hour; yet I cannot stand them at my desk/computer. Things I do are walking around the block (literally one block), preparing a cup of coffee, eating a piece of fruit, staring at the clouds or a tree or a bird in a tree or a spider making a web in the tree, planning what I will do that night, go to the toilet.. anything that is not cognitive demanding: very rejuvenating breaks and very much needed for me to work full days on hard stuff.
I completed a grad school program with intense reading. I would take breaks by just going for a walk down the block and back. I cleared my head and found refreshment in a way the internet never did for me. I recommend active breaks which give the mind a rest. Or, maybe even a cat nap.
Here is another interesting fact. Many studies have found that the people who live the longest and most healthy lives are the ones that eat small portions of whole foods. This is sometimes called calorie-restriction.
I also think that reading blog comments is very relaxing. When I read a blog post I dont go straight to the comments. I add that post to a stack of post to read comments. Then, when I feel like, I read some comments on a 5-10 minutes break, and reply to some!
However, I try to limit my surfs to website that are helpful for the current situation and I try to avoid social media and clickbait headlines. Do you have a recommendation how to control your surfing habits effectively?
Also, going boldly into Cal's domain of "deep thinking", I dare say that I actually started experiencing those weird trails of thought where I start thinking about ways to solve my work my problems from different angles, in some cases at depth and range of angles that I wouldn't normally explore, or even expect, in my "surfing days". And it's actually enjoyable. Weird, but I think I like it.
I know this post is from a while ago, but I have a question about a related topic. What do we think of the recent findings that ego depletion may be largely an artifact of publication bias and small sample effects, and if that is the case does that change the way we approach doing deep work?

However, the last few weeks have seen quite a few surfcams go offline for a wide variety of reasons - most of which are completely outside of of our control. So, whilst we work our hardest to get them back up and running, I thought it was worth explaining a few of the problems that can go wrong, and why it can take quite some time to rectify these kinds of issues.
Our surfcams are an automated network. That is, once the cameras are installed, in a perfect world they never have be attended to again unless they go offline. Of course, being right on the beach in highly corrosive marine environments, facing the brunt of every single weather system that sweeps the coast, this means that our hardware is frequently put to the test.
Anyway, the UPS is fine for most minor glitches in the electrical grid network. However, if the power is down across the suburb, then the surfcam will also be offline. Most power companies share this information online, but sometimes it can be slow to be made publicly available.
Fun and games, eh? Add up all of the associated time and cost to fix this problem, including replying to disgruntled Swellnet subscribers who can't view the Lorne surfcam, and it's a royal pain the arse.
Each surfcam location has several pieces of equipment, and although we utilise industrial/business-grade hardware, every device still has the capacity to freeze, or break down at some point. Usually when the swell of the year is bearing down on the coast.
Some of our equipment has lasted five or six years before needing to be replaced. On rare occasions, certain pieces of hardware have been DOA (dead on arrival) which is a pain in the arse when you've freighted all of the equipment down to some remote location for a new install, teed up an electrician to install it all, and then the bloody camera needs to be returned to the supplier under warranty for a replacement (resulting in another costly technician visit and a couple of weeks delay on the install).
It took almost a week to arrange a visit (cam went down on a Friday night, so couldn't arrange anything until the Monday; bloke got there Friday). All equipment in the cabinet was working fine, but the technician reported the power source to the surfcam was dead as the power lights were completely off. Now, this was unusual - the power supply rarely dies outright, more often, when there's a fault it'll change the colour of the indicator LEDs from green to orange. So, I asked the technician to look a little more closely. Lo and behold, the power cord into the back of the power supply had come loose, and it just needed to be plugged back in again and the surfcam came instantaneously back. Lucky I didn't arrange for spare parts to be sent down, as that would have delayed its return by up to another week.
Anyway, that's just a basic overview of some of the issues that affect the uptime of a surfcam. We're always developing new tools and techniques to improve the reliability, so I hope this answers some of the question you may have been pondering. 152ee80cbc
