Slanguage – HYPERTASKING
HYPERTASKING – the simultaneous handling of chores, messages, media streams, sudoku puzzles and conversations than no Jacobean brain could count, or grasp. Tagged as multitasking on speed, this super-overload is a symptom of our wifi era where mobiles and Blackberries are juggled between podcasts to tackle office memos, daycare fees, internal audits and Tuesday catch-ups before the tram pulls in. Brainless TV never felt so good at the end of a hypertasking day, though several shows will be watched in overlap.
