From a presentation called Overload, Shmoverload I gave (I think) at Etel, uploaded to Slideshare on 8 March 2007. This was based on the change in cognition that I predicted would arise from the use of tools like Twitter, Jaiku, and Facebook.
Flow Strategies:

Productivity is second to Connection: network productivity trumps personal productivity
Everything important will find it’s way to you many, many times: don’t worry if you miss it
Remain in the flow: be wrapped up in the thing that has captured your attention
