This book is great for tech learners of just about all levels. I consider myself technically inclined, however, there were still many things in this book that I had either never thought about, or just didn't know exactly how to do.

Lifehacker is a great collection of hacks that will make your life easier and more interesting. I recommend this book to anyone who possesses this desire.

I bought this book, because Amazon recommended it automatically with this great book: The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the New Rich

and I made a mistake. And this is NOT because the book is bad or poorly written or has no information inside. And this is why giving the stars here is hard thing. How to rate book if YOU can not use a single trick, because you just do not like them or do not need them?
Book is about (TECH!) tips, but I was buying the book, since3 I thought it will be more thinking and time management related.

Gina teaches you how to block entertainment website before 3 o'clock, before you had not done the job - no this or that website, Firefox will not allow you open it and so on so on. Every tip I read I answered - cool yes. Interesting - yes. Will I use it? No.

And so all the way in the book. What I want to say - if it is possible - TRY look inside the book before you buy - some people may find it useful, but if you are regular reader and search for time management books - i am afraid you will expect different book. This is most hard review I ever wrote here. I strongly suggest - get a sneak preview of some tips - you will LIKELY have a reactions like - interesting & cool.... by seems I will not use it.

I liked the approach that the author takes in offering 88 tips that she has found useful. You can really just pick up the book and open to any page and start reading about a tip. Oh, sure, they are organized into groups and some tips build on the previous tip or two; but you can snack on these whenever you want.

I leave this book on the table in my cube to let visitors thumb through it if they happen to be waiting for me.

If you're a "continuous improvement personality" like me; then you've probably already seen or adopted a bunch of these tips. But, there are so many tips/tricks that you are bound to find some that are new.

This book is definitely worth the time to pickup and read. As someone who has a million shortcuts in my life, I was hesitant picking this book up. But the first 25-40 hacks are gold. Solid Gold.

Most of the information in this book can be found in various locations. But the author brought everything together in one place.

My only criticsm of the book, was that it was written for the layman, for the most part. Descriptions on how to use flicker etc, were uncalled for. We'll figure it out. And many hacks were completed half way...and never really completed with any flourish. I'd like to see a part II, which takes those same hacks, and takes them to the next level. Ie - Email yourself a backup hack taken to times 10 wiht backup, and information inside the email.

Well, it's a pretty cool book ... but, I have to admit I haven't used one trick so far. Not sure why, but a lot of them seem unrealistic to me. I'm sure someone can use them, but most are not for me.
