An Ad Age report says that U.S. workers will waste the equivalent of 551,000 “work years” reading blogs (reg. required). Quote: “Currently, the time employees spend reading non-work blogs is the equivalent of 2.3 million jobs.”
I’ve been told many times before how many hours of people’s lives this site has wasted, mostly during work hours, so let me say I’m glad to be doing my part. Now excuse me while I get back to work.

I only read blogs or work on mine when I’m on the phone with a customer…. just so I can ignore them and say I’m doing work…
I only head over here when I’m utterly bored!
Sometimes I guess I just schedule my work hours around the blog, being a freelancer and all. …lame excuse…
Like workers didn’t waste any time doing non-work stuff at work before blogs. Give me a break.
Workers would kill time in another way if blogs didn’t exist.
It’s not something new.
