News Flash: Gadgets are distracting

News Flash: Gadgets are distracting


by on Jun.07, 2010, under


The yesterday about the effect that our 24/7 access to information through email, phone calls, texts, Twitters and the web via our gadgets is overloading our brains.


nytimes article“While many people say multitasking makes them more productive, research shows otherwise. Heavy multitaskers actually have more trouble focusing and shutting out irrelevant information, scientists say, and they experience more stress.”


At least I think it was a great article, I started to read it and then an email came in that I had to read, which reminded me I needed to return a phone call and then my dog was being extra cute so I had to take a picture and post it to my Facebook page, then it was time to harvest my We Rule crops, which of course made me hungry so I headed over to Yelp to figure out where to go for lunch and then the guy in the car behind me kept honking because the light was green and . . . what were we talking about?
