The world is too full to ever feel empty...

from Lifehacker (http://bit.ly/Nlhynj)

Just stumbled upon an amazing comment Andrew Lewis (andlewis.com) made on a MetaFilter discussion 2 years ago:

"If you're not paying for something, you're not the customer; you're the product being sold."

Brian Clark (copyblogger.com) used the quote in a G+ post about the long-delayed URL shortening of Google Plus profiles. I had never heard it before. 

This suggests two things:

1. No matter how much I want to think I'm a hip informed geek; I'm not.
2. There's still more information out there than you can ever process. 

A slightly better and positive way to look at it is that there's no reason to feel responsible to keep up on everything; you can't. That should feel liberating. Put more simply:

"There's more amazing in the world than you can ever experience and this is a good thing."
