I'm probably wrong though. Actually I don’t know why, but I get the impression that Tim Ferriss is a colossal douche bag. I’m probably wrong though.

Then I can look in once a week or so and see what's going on with all the product launches, but I don't get constantly bothered in my day to day work. If something is worthy of watching more closely I setup a gmail filter and forward those messages to my main account.

The IM get rich quickers are an annoying bunch. They all went from the hard sell to the 'i'm really a nice guy' pitch. It's pretty sad that people kiss up to these people in the hopes that they'll get a jv deal or something.

Nah. This is a great tip. I am just so lazy, sometimes i think i would rather be pissed off than just take two seconds to unsubscribe. I always feel like it is all or nothing, either i am gonna fix all the shit i dont want to read, or i am not going to lift a finger to look at it. and i hate the idea of doing it one per day or some crap. i think trying to do it for a week, is realistic. it is still extra work. but, in a week you can pretty much get the job done.
