I'm sure you cure cancer with every 5th keystroke of your best selling novels and crush awesome ruby code for breakfast.
You're espousing a pretty narrow view of what a computing device can be used for in a way that produces some value for its user.
- rogerchucker 14y agoYou are allowed to find a device useful (i.e. gain value out of it) without being productive on it. That is why e-Readers sell a lot - they are useful. We're arguing about productive use cases here and that in my mind does not include commenting on facebook walls. If that is a narrow viewpoint then that's fine with me.
- InclinedPlane 14y ago"Productive" is used in its more literal definition here: producing, m/aking, creating. It doesn't have to be shakespeare or picasso to still be a creative work.
- see3peeO 14y agoThink about it this way. If your work only allowed you to use a tablet to do your work, how productive would you be? I'm pretty sure every business prefers a 'narrow view' of what productivity means. The article is in relation to productivity.
