Multitasking Revisited

Last summer, I posted a short rant on multitasking. If you don’t want to read, it was my normal type of rant where I complain about people taking an already generalized statement and apply it even more widely.

This week, in response to that post (some responses take longer than others), I received a pointer to a little multitasking test that I thought would be fun to share. I’m not affiliated, no kickback, blah blah blah, just sharing because I think it’s interesting. I embedded the test below, but you can go straight to the source at http://open-site.org/blog/the-multitask-test/ as well. (note – the embedded version doesn’t always work that well, so head on over to the open-site.org page if you’re having problems).

  • Dead Man’s Curve

    In my last post, I tried really hard to focus on the message of employee reviews, and how that message shouldn’t be a surprise. I said things like: “I’m not a fan of the system…”, and “It doesn’t matter how messed up the system is…” – yet the mention of the dreaded-curve of the MS…

  • Writing About Testing

    I’m leaving early tomorrow morning for the Writing About Testing conference. I wasn’t able to attend WAT last year, but I’m looking forward to the trip, the meeting and talking with a group of great testers (who all enjoy writing about what we do). I don’t think there was ever a point when I thought,…
