Disconnecting Distraction

Chesterfield described dirt as matter out of place. Distracting
is, similarly, desirable at the wrong time. And technology is
continually being refined to produce more and more desirable things.
Which means that as we learn to avoid one class of distractions,
new ones constantly appear, like drug-resistant bacteria.
I remember when computers were, for me at least, exclusively for
work. I might occasionally dial up a server to get mail or ftp
files, but most of the time I was offline. All I could do was write
and program. Now I feel as if someone snuck a television onto my
desk. Terribly addictive things are just a click away. Run into
an obstacle in what you're working on? Hmm, I wonder what's new
online. Better check.

After years of carefully avoiding classic time sinks like TV, games,
and Usenet, I still managed to fall prey to distraction, because
I didn't realize that it evolves. Something that used to be safe,
using the Internet, gradually became more and more dangerous. Some
days I'd wake up, get a cup of tea and check the news, then check
email, then check the news again, then answer a few emails, then
suddenly notice it was almost lunchtime and I hadn't gotten any real
work done. And this started to happen more and more often.
At first I tried rules. For example, I'd tell myself I was only
going to use the Internet twice a day. But these schemes never
worked for long. Eventually something would come up that required
me to use it more than that. And then I'd gradually slip back
into my old ways.
