Web use fosters pseudo-ADD
Whenever I sit down to do some work at the computer, within minutes, I'm checking e-mail, surfing my favourites, clicking on all the stupid pop-ups, going to my list of news sites, opening up my RSS news reader to see if I've "missed anything important"...
Well, at least I can say, it's not me. Psychologists and computer scientists are beginning to study the phenomenon of shortened attention spans in the Internet age. Am I easily distracted? Am I just a curious kind of guy? Or is it the fault of the Internet?
