17 10 2006Meet the Life Hackers is a great article by Clive Thompson about multi-tasking, interruptions and human-computer interaction at the NY Times magazine section.
In summary, schedule your day to do some work to avoid interruptions, avoid having multiple forms of communication available all the time (e-mail, instant messaging, phone, cell phone, etc.), and use as big of a monitor as you possibly can. It’s a worthwhile read.
