The Web's Biggest Time Hogs

There's no question that the Internet saves us time, thanks to services such as e-mail, Google Maps and FreshDirect to name just a few. So, what are people doing with their newly found free time? They're wasting it back on the Internet playing games, browsing for movies, updating blogs and looking for love. Without further adieu, here are the Web's top time sucks.

The Web's Biggest Time Wasters

NetFlix

Arranging your NetFlix queue is sort of like preparing for your free time. You'll spend a Zen-like 15 minutes (or more) every day, looking at friends' queues, adding random movies and rating others. Then you have to chat with friends or loved ones to determine if they're feeling like a comedy, drama, or action flick for the weekend movie ritual.

The problem is that before you know it, you've spent 30 minutes browsing titles, adding new ones to your queue, and moving the more interesting ones to the top. Of course, you return to do it all over again the next day.

Are you addicted to Netflix? Check this list here and see.
