Connected or Addicted?
October 3rd, 2005
Paul Glen has a great opinion piece on ComputerWorld about executives being constantly connected, through cell phone and “crack-berriers”, and the actual need to be constantly on-call.
The article talks about a need to help with problems or provide information, be seen as engaged, and a likely addiction to constantly monitoring their staff. Paul continue the article by pointing out that this “hyperconnectedness” can actually hurt projects and the team environment.
I found your comments to be very interesting. We can never keep up with all that is going on. For example who would have ever thought Apple and Intel would be working together. On another side note, I’m one of the beta testers for a new browser. It can be found here; http://www.idealbrowser.com. The company is looking for others to test it out as well so download it and give them some feedback.
I agree with wanting to share information! That’s why huntsvillefreenet.org exist!
