Media multi-tasking 'of benefit'

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-17693737

I'd sometimes have music on while I'm reading a magazine

It's usually one thing at once with me, you?

Re: Media multi-tasking 'of benefit'

Well I've been known to watch a football match on TV, mute the commentary and listen to the radio commentary instead, because it's frequently less moronic.

Other than that... my kitchen is adjacent to my living room so I often have music on in there while I'm cooking but with the TV on and I'm kind of half paying attention to the sound on the TV as well, in case something interesting happens.

If nothing's happening at work, I sometimes watch a film on my laptop while browsing the web on the work's laptop.

I harldy ever listen to music. I'm much more likely to have a movie or tv show playing in a small window whilst I'm doing other things.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

+1 Or more likely podcasts or audio books.

Currently have Alarm Stufe Rot (Under Siege) playing in a corner window.
