This is exactly what the current coffee culture of North America needed: input from productivity blogs.

(Disclaimer: I quit coffee before doing it was cool†, but I'm quite partial to teas.)

Did it make you more productive?

Hard to say as I don't closely watch my productivity. It didn't make me significantly less productive, in any event. edit: And it's nice to feel that I can actually get stuff done without regularly needing coffee.

I got the sarcasm. <smiles> I am a Brit </smiles>.

I just did not realise not drinking coffee had become cool. Perhaps my age has proofed me from such things.

I don't measure my productivity, I just know I feel better about working when not on coffee and thus work becomes easier. It might be less productive, though I doubt it.
