Jake During my decade at Google, I traveled a lot, but I made a commitment to myself not to do any work in the air. I decided airplane time was my time, and I dedicated it to writing. In ten years, I wrote a lot of adventure fiction in the air, and that was hugely satisfying. And my coworkers never complained that I was offline. Maybe they figured some satellite glitch or chatty seat mate was tripping me up. Or maybe, like me, they understood the magic of being offline in flight.
