Like Sherry, I find that Twitter comes up a lot lately in conversations with faculty–and its associated attention issues. Are we evolving into mutant multi-taskers in order to cope with the firehose flow of information, or are we just being distracted to death? This article in the New York Magazine by Sam Anderson–In Defense of Distraction–is an engaging exploration of the issue. The title of this post is a quote from William James, who is quoted in the article.

I’ve been talking with faculty quite a bit about Web 2.0 applications, and Twitter is one that’s been difficult for me to imagine many instructional uses. Gross shares some ideas.
