On LW we talk occasionally about “life-hacks” (simple but non-obvious ways of solving common problems/becoming more productive, etc.) However, these are often considered too off-topic for LW. I distinctly remember reading a long list of life-hack ideas on some website, and a lot of them seemed very promising, but I apparently never bookmarked it.
Is there any good place on the Net to find the more effective hacks? It seems like there are a number of easy-to-implement ideas out there that would help a lot of people, but they are not concentrated in any one place.
Lifehacker.com should be that place, but it is run as a blog, with lots of new, trivial ideas floating around. The hacks with the biggest payoffs were probably written up years ago, and are no buried in the archives. The new ones on the front page seem pretty narrow and trivial. (If there is some way of actually finding the powerful, broad-appeal ideas on lifehacker.com, please point it out, I couldn’t find it.)
