87% like the tech tether

I used to be ambivalent about technology. I liked being able to work any time wherever I happened to be but worried that it would turn into working all the time, everywhere. I'm over it, though, and it seems that most of the rest of the workers around the world are, too. In a new survey, 87% of respondents said the ability to work any time and in any location improves their work/life balance, even though 35% say that technology contributes to working longer hours.

The boundary between work and home and all other aspects of life continues to blur. And if you doubt it, just follow a 20-something around for a day and watch how she toggles between the various areas of her life.
