If I am 'in the zone' and someone walks up to me I hold up my hand and say 'wait a min I need to get this down'. Then I write a note to myself to myself back where I was. I then help them. If someone says 'can you come back later' I always respect it. I also sometimes just tell people 'not right now I will get back to you in a bit' and it works surprising well. But make sure you come back to them at some point or they will not respect it next time. My personal biggest issue is self interruptions. Mostly web sites that are distracting.
