Noise is a huge issue at workplace, the modern trend of open-space offices too often means you end up having a noisy environment. Some people deal with noise much better than others, but unfortunately I’m not one of them and usually I’ve a fair amount of time, and money, searching for the best way to block, trying several combinations of noise isolating headphones and earplugs with different kinds of music.
Amazingly, at least for me, one of the most effective methods I’ve found was using a white-noise generator, and the theory is simple: our brain can easily filter and ignore flat, constant sounds (like a fan working in the same room or rain pouring outside). I ended up using SimplyNoise, a real simple web-based generator that plays white noise, pink noise and brown noise (more on noise colors here) with a few other tweaks. Usually work better with the more “rain-ish” sound brown noise.
