Think Fast: Smartwatch Slices Thought Into Eight-Second Bursts

Newsweek reports:

The Apple Watch’s constant notifications are to concentration what a Cinnabon is to fitness. As popular reviewer Joanna Stern found out while field-testing an Apple Watch, the thing can leave you more distracted than a beagle in a squirrel sanctuary.

Early buyers are just beginning to strap on Apple’s newest gadget, but ultimately this gizmo and its descendants will have an impact on society that goes far beyond our wrists: The Apple Watch will shrink attention spans like nothing before.

Another "innovation" for society.
