Impact of "Too Much Information" - Handling Information Overload
George Siemens

Monday morning...open Outlook - 120 new messages (on top of the messages I reviewed through out the weekend)...skim Internet sites - elearning, knowledge management, information technology. Some items are saved in an increasingly complex "favorites" file structure, a few are printed, some are forwarded, and some are blogged. Try to stay on top of email as it comes in...another 150 will hit the inbox by the end of the day...complete job tasks - i.e. the reason I'm actually at the college. Skip lunch (or eat lunch while battling with email/phone calls)...and spend a few hours in the evening reviewing sites that changed through out the day...and responding to email (so the inbox is moderately clean Tuesday morning)....
Thanks to George for mentioning the Online Learning Update Blog in the text of this article! - ray
