Why You Can’t Work at Work

February 25, 201011:13am

The mod­ern work­place is … opti­mised for interup­tion … interup­tion is the enemy of work, the enemy of pro­duc­tiv­ity, the enemy of cre­ativ­ity, the enemy of everything

Man­agers are the biggest prob­lem because their whole world is built around interup­tion. That’s what they do — man­age­ment means interupt­ing. “Let me call a meet­ing, because that’s what I do all day — call meetings”

If com­pa­nies were more focus on get­ting rid of interup­tions they’d get a whole lot more work done

Are Microsoft deliberately the antithesis of cool?

November 18, 200911:48am

With the recent release to the unsus­pect­ing pub­lic of this arse-clenchingly embar­rass­ing video of a Microsoft Store in Mis­sion Viejo, Cal­i­for­nia break­ing out spon­ta­neously into song on youTube in an effort to let their hair down and have some fun I have been won­der­ing if this is part of a delib­er­ate mar­ket­ing strat­egy from Microsoft embrac­ing their uncool image. With a his­tory of cool fails from begin­ning with the Microsoft Cor­per­a­tion group shot in 1978, through A sweat soaked Ballmer repeat­edly chant­ing the word “devel­op­ers” at a con­fer­ence right up to the recent “Host a Microsoft Win­dows 7 din­ner party”.

I’m really want­ing this to be clever mar­ket­ing … it has to be, I mean — just look at them!

Panoramic video

Inter­est­ing, although I sus­pect there’s a bet­ter appli­ca­tion for panoramic video than film­ing drugged up ravers.
