[General] Controlling Facebook

So, I had disabled my Facebook account for two weeks, in part because it really was a regular (if small) distraction that interrupted my focus.

I really needed to communicate with someone through it today, though, so I've re-enabled it, but hope to continue to enjoy my freedom from distraction with the following actions.

• I've blocked it on my own computer.  That helps prevent me from casually going over to it.  I can override that for when I actually need to use it, but it's a hassle, and prevents instant gratification.  I think I will check it on a weekly basis.  No more time for keeping up-to-date with the newsfeed, I guess.
• I've removed the Facebook app from my phone, so no more omnipresence for me.

 I think Facebook is uniquely useful, but without good self-discipline, it like anything else can impede my other goals.
