TEXTO PARA A QUESTÃO
We' ve been given no shortage of digital tools that should, in theory, help us work better, with more focus and efficiency,
and connect us more easily with our colleagues. Instead,
email, instant messaging, remote-meeting apps, work-flow
and project-management software can feel like buckets with
holes in the bottom, maddeningly inadequate to the task of keeping us from drowning in work. It' s clear that something in the great digital-workplace experiment has gone wrong. Or
maybe it' s more accurate to say that it' s still too early to expect that we would have figured out how to make things go right. "We' re working now with new technologies that only emerged in the "90s," says Cal Newport, a Georgetown computer-science professor. "The idea that we immediately figured out the best way to use them is ahistorical. Of course we haven' t gotten it right yet."
