The USC Annenberg School Center for the Digital Future released the results of the study that found a major part of U.S. online users admitted that the Internet helped them to become more productive. From 2000 to 2007 the number of users who believed in Internet productivity constantly increased with 57% of online surfers who said the Internet had improved their productivity “a lot” or “somewhat” in 2000 and 71% in 2007.

Another report reveals that 28% of Americans access the Internet from their work places. Most of them are aged 30 to 49, they have college degrees and earn more than $75,000 a year.

One more survey revealed that U.S. workers averaged 67 online sessions and spent approximately 89 hours online per month. They visited 131 different domains, viewing each site for a minute, on average. What these workers are visiting on the Internet remains known only to them.
