Readwise: A Really Nifty Tool For Your Kindle Highlights

As I read books on my Kindle, I tend to highlight the bits that resonate with me or the bits in non-fiction books which I'd like to action. All of these highlights are accessible on Amazon but I'm never sure what to do with them there. In the past, I've printed some and filed them but I prefer a paper-free digital office space.

I watched ‘Can I Tell You A Secret?’ and Then Deleted Instagram For Good

When it comes to adopting social media, I was one of the relatively late ones to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. I'd seen the rise of MySpace and it just hadn't interested me. It was a friend I'd not seen for a while who encouraged me to get going with Facebook. He thought I'd love catching up with people there. And, I did enjoy it. Oftentimes, a bit too much. When I go in, I tend to go all in. Before I knew it, I had hundreds of friends, thousands on Twitter and Instagram.
