Social networking in working hours
I read an interesting factoid on the KMTalk website today:
Workers who spend time on social networking web sites such as Facebook could be costing UK firms over US $250 million a day, a study has calculated. According to employment law firm Peninsula, 233 million hours are lost every month as a result of employees “wasting time” on social networking.
Fascinating when we are in the midst of the “social media bubble” / moving downward on the Gartner hype curve (see The social media paradox: success & time for an interesting read in this regard).
