Working Online

Are you that person that wastes too much time online looking at cats or playing on a web application instead of working? Well, you are probably going to to admit it and even go so far as to say that the internet has increased your productivity or has not diminished it. Interestingly enough, 35% of people that work online, said that they work more hours. This seems like a no brainer. I thought that being more productive meant doing more in a less amount of time. I thought that the technology should help us accomplish more but it just seems that we end up with more distractions on our hands. The real change needs to come from the human element. We need to be the ones that make changes in how we use our new technology. We also need to take better control of our time and not get lost in the digital lives that we have created. As wonderful as they are, we are still human need to live in the here and now.
