Focused Attention
I got to go home for the holidays and one of the most undesirably parts that I hate about being home is how slow the internet connection is. But what I didn’t realize it at the time was how much I got done online. It was an odd paradox, since slow connection to the information super highway (does anyone call it that anymore) would normally equal death to all productivity and multitasking, but I soon learned that it was just the opposite. To cope with the slowness of my DSL line at home I started to choose where I visited a bit more meticulously knowing full well that if I choose something that I didn’t like and started clicking on an absurd amount of links it would just equate to me watching that little spinny thingy in my Firefox tabs spin over and over and over again. I was able to finally catch up on the awesomeness that is The Daily WTF and read up on the beauty that is of the new Core i7 from Intel (AMD too?) and it is sweet. So if you think that having a “slow” internet connection means certain doom and gloom, don’t, think of it more of a blessing in disguise.
