How Well Do You Multitask?
A Facebook friend of mine has just recently posted an article from the New York Times entitled “Your Brain on Computers.” The story looks at the ways in which information saturation has begun to rewire the brains of heavy technology users. It also discusses multitasking - specifically how effectiveness flags as more tasks are piled on top of one another. There’s even an online experiment that will give you a sense of how well you can focus through distraction and juggle multiple items.
Below are my results. Does this make me a “supertasker?”
