37signals have posted an update on their four day week experiment.

I’m still working my way through the copious comments to the post!

In particular the four day week:

We found that just about the same amount of work gets done in four days vs. five days.

Historically it was assumed that advances in technology would lead to everyone working less. It now seems the opposite has happened.

How did that happen?

I’ve long been an admirer of 37signals – their manifesto encapsulates my approach to the web.
