The trouble and payoff of bit literacy
The Bit Literacy book page on Amazon now has 25 customer reviews - great to see. I especially like the review below because it describes the trouble of describing bit literacy to someone who's never tried or experienced it... and the payoff, of really getting work done, when one begins to practice bit literacy:
The idea of an empty inbox, like the idea of an empty mind, is impossible to describe to someone else. You just have to get there. Mark Hurst tells you exactly how to do just that.
The exponential growth in emails and other technical distractions happened so gradually, we don't notice how much time it takes away from productive work. The ability to deal with the daily inundation of emails, blogs, news feeds, podcasts, calendar alerts, voicemails, etc. separates the productive people from the rest.
The first time you have an empty inbox you will fold your hands and stare at the screen and ask yourself what to do next. The answer is "real" work.
