Last Monday’s post How to Become an Early Riser obviously struck a chord with many people. That post has generated more links than I can count, sending more new traffic to this site than any other post or article I’ve written. And the traffic logs indicate that the surge was decentralized (not attributable to a mention in any one major source). 继续阅读How to Become an Early Riser – Part II

上周一发布的那篇《如何成为早起者》，显然撩动了许多人的心弦。那篇文章产生的外部链接不计其数，为这个网站带来的流量，比我写过的任何文章都要多。而且流量日志表明，这次流量高峰是去中心化的（不归功于任何主要流量源头）。 继续阅读如何成为早起者 — 第二部分
