        Not as interesting as Captain Crunch more interesting then Fruit Loops.

            I listen to music when I really need to focus. It doesn't always help though...

                Pi is irrational.

                huh..?

                  Apparently I had a quote window open when I navigated to a different thread... It carried the quote over.

                    Yep, it does that, and then everyone is confused for a minute.

                      I find listening to music with headphones on a bit distracting, so don't generally do it. Some of my staff do and I don't have a problem with it. Whatever people find helps them.

                      Agreed, I could never work at a hipster tech company on the west coast - everyone with their headphones on, no walls open floor plan.

                      I do suppose it's one way to make sure employees are working and not screwing around on the interwebs - but then again, phone conversations from the person next to me would drive me insane as well.

                        LOL - same here. I hate it when I run out of my normal podcasts and have to listen to the radio to fill the void. It's caused me to pick up a few more podcasts to fill in the gaps.

                        Worst part of that is now I know how much time I spend in the car alone (don't get to listen to them when the wife is with me) - about 8 hours a week, between driving to/from work, to from lunch.

                          I spend ~40 minutes to an hour in the car a day. When I was driving back and forth to Rochester (~3.5 hours) the radio was killing me. I found a few podcasts I liked and they recommended some more.

                            Yeah - the Twit network is where I spend most of my time. If I was having to fill voids like 3.5 hours, I'd probably do books on tape/digital media player

                              I've tried Audible and other books-on-tape stuff. For some reason I can't do it. Much prefer to have a book in front of me that I can read.

                                I've been using Google Play for a 2 months now.

                                Though @Dashrender has me hooked on listening to podcasts in the car, though.

                                  I definitely tend to remember the content better when I read with my eyes instead of my ears. So I wouldn't to do learning with books on tape - but casual reading - I don't mind.
