infomania 资讯癖
Infomania is the debilitating state of information overload, caused by the combination of a backlog of information to process, and continuous interruptions from technologies like phones, instant messaging, and e-mail. “资讯癖”指的是信息超载的超负荷状态,是由于需要处理大量的多种信息导致的,并受到手机、即时通讯及电邮等信息科技的不断打扰。 It is also understood as distraction caused by the urge to check e-mail, text messaging and other sources of information, which causes the person to show symptoms to neglect other, often more important things -- duties, family, etc. 总想着去查邮件,发短信,以及处理其他资讯来源,这会让人注意力分散,导致人们忽视其他通常更重要的事情,比如责任,家庭等等。 |
