July 19, 2007 - Multitasking, taking a photo while talking on a phone

Multitasking is a common practice as shown in the photo taken looking down from Liberty Bridge in Greenville, SC I like this photo mostly because of the perspective. I took it looking down from the Liberty Bridge … The photo shows how common multitasking has become … What is your worst multitasking habit?

LOL. It actually took me several separate looks to see the multi-tasking. I like the photo of the guy. Good shot.

Good photo! I’m not too good at multi-tasking and women are supposedly good at it! Mind you, I can sit at the computer and drink a cup of coffee at the same time!

interesting angle. It reminds me of that classic Salvador Dali painting of Christ on the Cross painted from above. It grabs the imagination because it is a familiar image from an unfamiliar angle….

Perhaps the rudest I do is typing while talking on the phone — I’m sure if the person hears the clicking it is annoys them. (I try to type quietly.) The most dangerous…doing anything else while driving. I should place my complete attention on the road. Should.

Is eating, watching tv and blogging together considered multitasking? :) My worst is reading while listening to somebody else - and thus looking like I don’t care what they say. But I do, really :)

Ben, sort of loses the pleasure of both activities when they are done at the same time.

Abraham, funny that both activities are so common that we don’t recognize that something is out of the ordinary.

Jill, a drink while typing allows one to think about what they are going to type. So in that case I would say one activity enhances the other.

Pedp “familiar image from an unfamiliar angle”. Very well put.

Lessie, you will have to get a tablet PC. That would solve the noise issue. In fact that is one of the big justifications for a tablet PC when used in meetings.

Honza03, my worst is browsing the Daily Photo blogs while my wife is visiting with me. As much as I like DP blogs I love my wife more so I plan to put a stop to this annoying habit I have developed.

Cooking while carrying my daughter! I know it’s dangerous but sometimes I have to do it :)

talking on the phone while loading the dishwasher or sweeping the floor…I love headsets.
