Under Fragmented social life he … Continue reading The Big Three – How To Handle Your Fragmented Social Life
In the last few weeks a lot has been written about whether Google Plus is the ultimate killer social networking site of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, or several others, you name it.

Like I have just mentioned in another blog post, I am making my way already to Boston to attend, and present, at the Enterprise 2.0 conference event that will start taking place next week Monday.

What do you reckon? Do you think that, as the title of this blog post suggests, all of us, knowledge Web workers, are damaging our brains when we multitask? I never thought about it myself and I do a fair bit of multitasking during the course of the day, but, apparently, yes!, that seems to … Continue reading Is Multitasking Bad for the Brain?
