Yes. And the worst part is that, once I realize I haven’t done what I was going to do, I can’t remember what it was. It’s distressing.

This happens to me all the time and I can never remember what it was that I started out to do until couple hours later.

Friendfeed, twitter, Digg, Facebook, Email, Kotaku, Gizmodo, Google Reader, etc. etc.
Call it a yes.

All. The. Time. It’s a miracle that I’m able to juggle everything (work, school, some semblance of life), with my habit for chronic distraction.

An interesting article along the same line as what we’re discussing here: http://www.salon.com/books/review/2009/04/29/rapt
