"Cubicle dwellers can have trouble hearing themselves think when surrounded by irrelevant conversations," said Earl Vickers, CEO of The Sound Guy. "ChatterBlocker minimizes the intelligibility in a way that is more effective and less distracting than listening to music, especially music with lyrics."
I know what he means - that's exactly why I can't listen to the radio when I'm working.
