They don't take breaks at appropriate times, spend more than a 'normal' amount of time online, and get irritable if they are interrupted while surfing.

The internet was invented for serious purposes.

The internet was invented at CERN so that nuclear scientists could share data. It is unfortunate that it is being used for frivolous purposes, and worse, for the perpetration of crime. Sir Tim Berners Lee wouldn't ever have thought it would come to all that. Hope everyone would use it responsibly.

ASSOCHAM is known for wrong analysis. Remember they had to call back a report in the eye of a storm. Networking actually increases productivity. If rediff pays I send article on how.

True but not that important!

Its true that people do spend quite some amount of time on social networking but before blaming them one should realize that in most of the IT companies working hours stretch beyond the regulars 8 hours. If one is working 12-15 hours a day then s/he will need these sort of activities to ease up a bit.
