I don't think this article offers anything to solve the problem. I believe most of the people can identify the problem. Yeah you check your mail or facebook while you're working and it causes productivity loss. But just being aware of it doesn't solve the problem. It's like when people try to lose weight they know they have to eat healthy or less but just knowing that again doesn't make them easily lose weight. Because just like losing weight, the problem about productivity isn't about knowing what to do or what not to do. Everybody knows what to do, it's simple, no distractions = better work. Real problem is avoiding that one quick facebook check every day and every hour.
