Use technology to help you, not distract you - Professor Gloria Mark #253

How many times have you checked your mobile phone in the last hour? Or your email?

Professor Gloria Mark specialises in digital distraction, information overload and how we can adapt our behaviour to be more efficient on a day-to-day basis and more fulfilled too.

She’s looked at the role between Internet access and multi-tasking. (I’m not good at multi-tasking!)

She’s also studied the link between, stress, mood and computer usage. This is fairly astonishing and she goes into it in the podcast.
