Choices
Researchers have found that too many choices can be mentally exhausting.
Now, Cow struggles with this every day. Should she read the Daily Mail or PhysOrg first? Should she dink around on the blog or walk to the snack shop? Should she look at the papers on her desk and do some work, or design a new hat for the Topiary Bunny?
"Participants who had to make important choices spent less time and made more mistakes in solving assigned math problems, and spent more time in distractions such as playing video games or reading magazines."
Hey, did somebody take my COWToday paper? And where's my COWmopolitan?
Moo!

With the right equipment you could hit the blog while walking to the snack shop.
"When in doubt, sleep on it" as we gorillas say.
People don't want choice: they want what they want. (-:
And they want it NOW.
Moo!
