I Prefer NAPping

I love the acronym: WILB ("workplace Internet leisure browsing"). I guess they couldn't come up with one for SCREWING AROUND.

Facebook, YouTube at Work Make Better Employees: Study

Caught Twittering or on Facebook at work? It'll make you a better employee, according to an Australian study that shows surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.

Study author Brent Coker, from the department of management and marketing, said "workplace Internet leisure browsing," or WILB, helped to sharpened workers' concentration.
