Time Well Spent

The Dallas Morning News has a story today that says American workers, "will waste the equivalent of 551,000 years reading blogs." Waste? I'm totally offended by the idea that reading blogs is a waste of time. (I'm also offended by the idea that writing blogs is a waste of time, but my wife keeps insisting that it's true).

The story goes on to say the time spent reading blogs is equivalent to "a daily, 40-minute blog break" for every American worker. Now see, I figure you can read this blog in way less than 40 minutes. Unless of course you went to public school. So if your boss comes into your cubicle while you're reading this blog, just tell him that you're actually making very productive use of your time.
