Brilliant new file sharing web site EatLime expedites online file sharing by allowing your friends to begin downloading the file as soon as you start uploading it, meaning you don't have to wait for the file to finish uploading before they begin downloading. You can share files up to 1GB with a free registration or up to 100MB with no registration. In testing EatLime, I found that eventually—once my download caught up with my upload—I was essentially downloading in real-time from the upload, which is fantastic. If you've ever shared large files online, you know what a pain it can be in terms of time. EatLime could cut a significant chunk out of the time it takes to share files online.

When it feels like there are never enough hours in the day to dedicate to all the important areas in your life, it's time to take out the big guns and get to analzying where your day's going. Harvard Business Online has a few recommendations on how to break down your time by role, and then correlate those totals with the reality of your to-do list. It means assigning time estimates to your tasks, and taking a big view of how much time should go to each thing (i.e., six hours a day at work, four hours a day with family, etc.)—which isn't always easy, but can be eye-opening.

Firefox with Greasemonkey only: Two of the Lifehacker editors may reside on the West coast, but our site stats tell us that most of you are on Eastern time, and that means you'd probably like to see our posts timestamped that way. Now you can—with a Greasemonkey user script I just threw together. With Greasemonkey installed, using Firefox, install the Lifehacker on Eastern Time user script.It will change all the Pacific time zone post times on Lifehacker and other West coast blogs (Valleywag, io9, and Defamer) to Eastern. This script is only a first release alpha, but once I get any bugs worked out I'll put out versions for additional time zones. Requests, bug read more »

Estimating how much time it takes to get a task done is never easy; in fact, most of us are optimists and underestimate how long that to-do will take us. Personal development writer Steve Pavlina says the key is to know just how optimistic you are—he calls this your "fudge ratio"— and build it into your estimates. Pavlina writes: I tend to be consistently optimistic when estimating the time required for certain tasks. Knowing my fudge ratio has NOT made my initial estimates more accurate. My off-the-cuff estimates are just as inaccurate as they've always been. However, when I multiple my estimates by the fudge ratio, the estimates come pretty close to the time required. This helps me budget my time better. Figuring out your fudge ratio means you've got to jot down estimates for a few tasks, do them, and then compare actual time to estimated time. Pavlina's fudge ratio is about 1.5, which sounds just about right for overachieving optimists.
