You came online just to check your mail or do shopping, and that was two hours ago... what are you doing here still? How did you get drifted away? How easily do we get distracted by tempting websites , adverts ,chatting etc.. how can we avoid this from happening?

It's too easy isn't it. It's like there's a whole world going on in cyberspace and we have to keep taking a peek. It's hard not to be distracted when we have to just check this or that or the other and suddenly hours have gone by. How can we avoid it happenning? We've got to be firm with ourselves if we really need to get other things done. Easier said than done!

Well it is very easy to get distracted no doubt about that. But then again internet has become like flicking channels on TV - try and browse what else is out there - try and find something interesting and new. We do want to get distracted by 'wonderful and exciting' things and that s the beauty of the internet. One of the best tools of the internet that I have come across is called StumbleUpon - great tool to randomly select websites of your interest.

It is extremely easy. Selectng one thing on the internet soon leads to another. If chatting to somebody or sending emails, the time soon passes. Fatal at night when considering an early night to log in "just to check emails". Several hours later and still not gone to bed!

For me, I set a limit on how long I stay on, usually no more than 1 1/2 hours at a time.
