Learn to multi-task, people! - The Merc reports on the phenomena of television viewership dropping when people spend more time on the Internet. The information comes from a UCLA study and shows that "Internet users watched about 4.8 fewer hours of television each week than non-users. Internet veterans (emphasis mine) watch about 5.8 fewer hours of TV than non-users." Maybe it's a function of people not having a wireless connection to bring the laptop in front of the TV or not having a television in the computer room. But I know that I prefer to have the TV blaring in the background while I surf the web. How else am I going to stay on top of all the latest pop culture trends?
