In fact, if someone were to see you reading this blog, rather than doing something, say looking for a new job, they might ask you if you planned to read blogs all day. (Well, if they were a jerk they could.) Of course, the most common answer would be, "I'm going to do that in a minute. Right now I have to read this really, really excellent blog post. At least that's what I'd like to assume.
The other day, I was thinking about how funny a minute is. Depending on how you look at it, it can be a very short span of time or a really long one. For example, if I said that I was going to start working in a minute or I am going to run into the store for a minute, it can be a very long period of time. But, if I were taking a test or playing Perfection, a minute isn't nearly enough time to get things correct.
I did some research and I was reminded of Murphy's Law regarding that 60 second time frame. It goes like this - The length of a minute depends on which side of the bathroom door you are on.
I couldn't have said it better myself!
Still, it made me wonder - how much stuff gets accomplished everyday in just a short minute?
While I was looking for the answer, I found this great infographic about the average internet minute. I thought it was fascinating and I couldn't wait to share it with you. If you have always wondered what you can do in under 60 seconds, take a look at this:
