My excuse for ADD, Or Information Overload is Good for Us

Our inveterate reference librarian, Tam, in the OCLC Information Center forwarded a bit to me this morning from Web Worker Daily:

Bring on Information Overload: It’s Good for You


I have chosen to believe it wholeheartedly, because it some ways it excuses my now perpetual shock each afternoon when I realize, OMG the day is over already. And I have not accomplished nearly half of what was on my prioritized daily task list, even with all the little As and Bs and numbers beside each one! (Oh Stephen Covey, I do remember the parable of the rocks...)

I say this, knowing full well I have succumbed and requested a blackberry...which will make it better, right??
