    If you took away everyone's internet access in work, I think you should put full internet access on our computers in work....we currently have limited internet access and anything fun is blocked....it's only fair!
    As peoples social life's move online I'm sure it will become a big issue, restricting some ones access to the internet could like saying they're not allowed to talk to each other in the office. It could end up being like a gag order during working hours.

    As mentioned above, if someone's bored out of their head they won't be productive, with or without internet access. Being advised that your usage is monitored is also an incentive to minimise use. Fortunately my job is interesting and challenging so I don't feel the need to use the internet for personal use at work despite having full access. As it is, I spend enough time on it when I get home, so a break from it is good.

    I was once in a job where I was in the top 10 internet users in the company! That job was such a doss, it was ridiculous.

    However, if the project manager had've gotten his act together and organised some work** for us to do, then we wouldnt have been sitting at our desks all day, bored!

    So maybe its all the companys faults for not being more interesting to work for! I wonder what the doss-levels are like in places like Google!



    ** it was a job upgrading staff PCs and we couldnt just interrupt them so it had to be organised in advance before we could touch the PCs.
