Speakers Speaking in Code

Just got back from my one-day Digital Fast and I'm starving! It wasn't that hard to stay away from the computer and keep my cell phone off the whole day. Maybe it was because I was sick and stayed in bed most of the day reading? Regardless, it's a nice exercise to try and limit your bit consumption and to recognize how much time is spent (wasted?) on your digital equipment.

In other exciting news, I saw an amazing Wilco concert this weekend in Philly- 3+ hours, nearly 40 songs on a Saturday night. Talk about just the right amount of information...(okay, that was a reach, even for me).

I'll be back soon with a tool I use for making sure I don't overload my project teams with information and keep them focused on our project goals.

Less is More- Extreme Edition

The folks at Stepcase Lifehack are challenging us to go on a digital fast, and I'm going to take them up on their offer.

If Less is More, is Nothing the Most?

I don't know but I'm sure my family has an opinion when it comes to digital matters. And the truth might set me free!


Your message is not only competing with everything else you're presenting, but also against everything else out there in the virtual swamp. Maybe taking a day off will clarify just how much of your attention is spent down in the bayou.
