Busy Status Bar — Productivity Multi-tool Device with an LED pixel screen

Civilized! In 2001 I worked for an art gallery that was open to the public, so headphones weren’t an option. We called my little Post-It system "VODC" or Virtual Office Door Closed.

Headphone on: I’d rather not be disturbed, but if it’s important, sure. Headphones off: wassup

In 2001, I put a Post-It Note on the back of my monitor: green for I can be interrupted, yellow for trying to work, pink for "heads down, don't bother me." In 2024, there's a $189 version with built-in app support: https://busy.bar
