RE: On steem in fragments

in #steem6 years ago

I think the fragmentation problem is not all that different to mainstream smartphone/social media apps. You end up with fragmented behavior of jumping between apps.

One solution is to develop daily and weekly routines. Evaluate where time is being spent and value gleaned from those activities, and put structure/boundaries on time. For example, spend time replying to comments for 30 minutes every evening rather than scattered through the day. Disable push notifications so you don’t get the sporadic ping.

As more dapps crop up fragmentation is only going to get worse. A cool idea is a STEEM equivalent of the Forest app. “Get rewarded to stay focused”. The basic idea would be to set a timer on your smartphone during which you focus on a task (not using the phone). At the end of the block of time or end of the day, write a short summary of the experience, call it “proof of focus”, and post that to STEEM. Similar to Actifit’s “proof of activity”.

Yes you're right - fragmentation is a wider problem.

Some great advice there - easier said than done heeding it mind!

One of my students mentioned that forest app the other day - sounds interesting!
