    I'm totally on the same page, Nick...social media runs my life....and my desktop is exactly as you describe!

    Nick,
    Thats why I think we enjoy things like the social media breakfast. It gives us a brief reprieve from this overload and take a minute to take a breath and converse with all the great people. Then we leave, pull out our iPhones/Blackberry's and out our heads down buried in it as we return to our overload ...

    I highly recommend David Allen's Getting Things Done methodology for dealing with this overload. I also have installed an application called Things (os x only) at work, and one at home, for managing my Today, Next, and Someday tasks. It's not stress free, but it does help.

    Speaking as the author of the map, that's just an example of my particular social media information flow. Everyone will have a different one. Some notes:

    - there is a branch to the right with white boxes that shows some content types that may be applicable for others that I don't use myself (e.g. music)
    - the map is only version 0.3.1 so far from finished. The node to the bottom left shows some of the things I still have left to add.
