The Tweet Judgement: What Are You Doing with Your Life?

Posted by John Saddington on Dec 11, 2009

the-last-judgement-tweetI found this hilariously entertaining and yet somewhat depressing at the exact same time.

And I’m afraid that, at times, my tweets are the most “productive” thing I’ve got going on (especially when I’m sick).

I suppose it just makes me think about harder about what I’m doing with my time spent online and if I’m being the most effective at what I’m being asked to do with the little time that I’ve got.

What about you?

Do we think often enough about our usage online and how (if?) we’re being the most effective with our time?

I’d like my life to be a little more meaningful than 10-20 140 chars a day. And sure, it doesn’t take much time commitment, but I certainly spend a lot of my mindspace on thinking about stuff that’s not necessarily productive.

Just a few thoughts this Friday morning.

    Good question & a tough call. When it comes to relationships (both offline and online) there are a lot of things we do that are not necessarily "productive," at least in the short term.

    I don't think it's that big of a deal as long as it's not consuming you or getting in the way of more important responsibilities.

    More often than not, I strike a balance between working, tweeting, blogging, etc; however, this week, I needed to go get serious about a project we've been trying to finish at work. The first things to go? Twitter. Blogging. Emails.

    My point is: when you gotta get serious about high priority stuff, the less serious stuff should take a backseat. Of course, sticking to that is the challenge, I guess.

        "Go" is such a *strong* word. Perhaps I should say, notifications are shut off, browser tab closed, and phone is removed from the area.

        So they don't go. I just don't know they came ;)
