Audrey, A lot of people have had issues with the Internet being a ready distractor. Some have been subject to disciplinary action when companies identify the net as an issue that is limiting productivity. The best solution I have seen is to turn off the surf engines except at times when it is appropriate to take a break.

Fahad, Many of your peers have reported that social media sites can get in the way of productivity. Not having the sites open at work except for during a few selected times during the day may be a good plan. Unfortunately, we are starting to feel we are expected to immediately update our pages or respond right away to other's posts.
