I guess their point was that 101 tips feels like a lot of content whilst you're not saying a lot about many of them. An option could have been to go for depth instead of breath, take a handful of connecting points and discuss them a bit further - explaining all the why's and how's about them. Maybe you had a particular situation in mind when you decided to write a certain point down, that could help people remember it better. Nothing you say is wrong, however people are quick to dismiss your effort if they find that something does not align with their beliefs. Thanks.

NB, tiny typo: 73. point has 'things' written twice.

The point wasn't to say a lot about them; they're tips, not chapters of a book. The whole point was to keep it succinct.

Thanks for the typo info.

For instance, what do you mean by learning to google things effectively? Care to give a few examples or a general guideline of things to avoid in order to not google things badly?
