It's an eye opener, and I wonder if I'm suffering from similar effects at the moment. The talk is specifically about porn, but porn isn't the only thing that effects people in that way. Simply searching on Google activates the reward centers of your brain.

That talk was very interesting for sure. Today is March 1st, so it would be a good day to start for the 90 days. I mostly just want to do it as an experiment. I don't have any problems, and don't really watch that much porn (10 mins a day on average) but I really wonder if it would get me more motivated to meet girls etc. One assumes they still masturbate, just not using porn correct?
As for regular sites I think I'm going to set certain times a day I check. Going to say when I first wake up, I get to look at all my sites, then 6 hours later be able to check again, and then 6 hours after that. I know that once I am forced to quit the Internet (Vacations for example) I easily forget it, and it actually takes me a while to get back into the groove of the Internet when I get back.
I hope when you posted this you didn't post it cause you thought I was wildly addicted to porn cause I look like "That guy" lol. Thanks for the info though it was very informative and scary as hell. I'm an open book so I apologize if my candidness offends anyone.
