“Consider it a 'best of' of the site LifeHacker.Com. The problem is, the notion of 'best of' is highly subjective. Out of the 116 hacks within, I found 25% useful or interesting, 25% interesting but of no immediate usefullness, 25% already knew, and 25% didn't care about (like Mac hacks, for example.)
This was to be expected, however, so I can't fault the compilation too much. ”

Yes | No“So I feel like kind of an idiot, because I just finished "Lifehacker" and started "Upgrade Your Life" only to realize that the latter is an updated edition of the former, and not a continuation. Seems kind of weird to have 2 different names for the same book. ”

I am a frequent (read, daily) visitor / reader of Lifehacker.com and I thought that the book didn't really offer me much more than the site did (and for nothing). A lot of the hacks in the book were very basic, but, the hacks that werent and provided a great idea in how to streamline your productivity certainly made up for the others.
I think the book is definately worth reading if, like me, you spend the majority of your day on a computer.”
