How often do you sit in front of your computer and wait?
Everyone waits for the computer to reboot, restart, unlock,"scandisk", "defrag", finish printing, download a file fromthe Internet or generally accomplish tasks that have yousitting twiddling your thumbs for at least 60 to 90 secondsor more.
The shocking truth is that those one, two and three minutenuggets of time contain the seeds for accomplishing all thetasks you never seem to have enough minutes in the day tofinish.
Computers represent a double-edged sword. On the one hand,they are supposed to save us time by efficiently helping uswith big tasks such as balancing our checkbooks, running ourbusinesses, and doing our taxes.
