Work —complex knowledge work requires solitude as well as collaboration. Working from home offers me plenty of solitude but not the intellectual stimulation and those over-the-shoulder conversations so crucial to serendipity, ambient awareness, and informal learning. Are you a knowledge worker working from home?

Smart phones and tablets with crystal-clear, high-resolution screens (my iPad’s resolution matches that of my 27” iMac) are great devices for media consumption and more than adequate for many forms of collaboration.
