It’s 3:00 pm and I have gotten almost no work done today. So far, my day has been consumed by:
- Cable troubleshooting with Comcast. (Turns out someone unhooked my cable yesterday!)
- Playing with a new D-Link Bluetooth dongle in anticipation of my wireless Jabra BT250v headset arriving from Amazon
sometime this month. - Installing Skype.
- Troubleshooting why my local Apache HTTP server won’t run. (Turns out it’s because of Skype. Great.)
- Installing WordPress.
OK. #1 is not my fault. The rest I am chalking up to an investment in “future productivity”. Yeah, right. Does all of this technology really make us more productive or just create an illusion of productivity? I best get my butt back to coding – you know – the billable stuff.
