Hard to disagree with the observation that people are putting more and more irons in the fire, but I disagree with the author's solution - asking people to disclose everything they are working on at all times is a bad idea.

The nature of this new world is that most things we dabble in at the very early stages end up fizzling. Like an author with a new book, people will be less likely to take important risks if they know they'll be scrutinized from the beginning.
