Slow down?

Driven to distraction by technology (Ina Fried, CNet News.com, 7/21/2005)


The typical office worker is interrupted every three minutes by a phone call, e-mail, instant message or other distraction. The problem is that it takes about eight uninterrupted minutes for our brains to get into a really creative state.

I'm as guilty of it as anybody, but that doesn't make it right.
