When it comes to social networking sites MySpace is the mother, father, and God to the rest of the time consuming spawns. I'm sure if we all tallied our time on MySpace.com it would rival the amount of time I spend asleep each night. (ok, maybe not that much. -David.)
Nevertheless, like any other time consuming activity other daily routines must suffer to make up for the addiction. A recent study has been completed that suggests that students grades may be the hardest sacrificed. But hey, they just wanna see what their latest MySpace comment is, leave a comment, post bulleting.....etc..etc...
High school students who spent significant time viewing social networking Web sites such as MySpace, text-messaging on cell phones or instant-messaging on computers often saw their grades drop, according to research by a California State University, Fresno professor.
I'm not trying to be rude, but, duh. They would be better off performing a study to see if time spent watching TV distracts from reading books. garrr, give me their grant money!
