Wired magazine is reporting that information overload is being predicted by some analysts as the problem of the year for 2008.
"It's too much information. It's too many interruptions. It's too much lost time,' Basex chief analyst Jonathan Spira declared. And more information available, he said, also means more time wasted looking for the right information, whether in an old e-mail or through a search engine."
So, what are you going to do about this so-called problem of the year?
Might you replace that 16-line signature block at the bottom of your emails with something short and sweet? Or perhaps take a little more time and write a shorter and more succinct brochure? Maybe run through your web site and see what can be done to get your visitors to the information they need with less hassle? Get a pro to design your 97-slide PowerPoint? Clean up your mailing list?
