Quotation of the Day for November 18, 2013



"We were absolutely shocked. We all lost our bets. It turns out multitaskers are terrible at every aspect of multitasking. They're terrible at ignoring irrelevant information; they're terrible at keeping information in their head nicely and neatly organized; and they're terrible at switching from one task to another."

- Clifford Nass, Stanford professor, on his research on how people multitask. Nass died Nov. 2, 2013 at the age of 55.
