'Achewood' Web Flowchart Shows You're Better Off Staying Offline

Web Surfing Flowchart Makes Deciding To Stay Offline Easier
You might not know it, but every decision in this world can be broken down into an easy-to-follow flowchart. Literally, every one. When to pull out your iPhone, what cereal to eat, even whether or not 'It Was a Good Day' are all flowchartable. So it shouldn't come as a surprise that deciding what to do online has finally gotten its own diagram to help you work through the options.

The first step is deciding whether or not you want to go online, but if you're reading this, clearly you've already made up your mind. Once you're here, this handy flowchart from Web comic Achewood will guide you through deciding whether or not to engage in social networking, watch videos on YouTube, or if you should just buckle down and get some work done.

Note the infinite loop formed by checking Facebook and Twitter updates, and the accurate admission that "the only active user of MySpace is a 32 megabyte Flash file that loads improperly and obfuscates your login fields." We suggest you print this out and hang it above your desk, for the next time you're thinking about checking out the massive interwebs. [From: Achewood]
