The Internet splits up

Article Abstract:

Nations are arguing over how the Web should be governed and regulated, dragging old policy-grudges into cyberspace, as countries like China, Iran, North Korea, and Vietnam are coming up with new ways to censor citizens' online communications, often with the help of Western Multinationals. It is believed that instead of a borderless, well functioning, economically efficient communications network, the Internet is poised to become a quagmire of special interests, competing political agendas and International bureaucracy.

Slack attack

Article Abstract:

A survey and study by researchers at Melbourne found that sample of workers were spending as much as quarter of their time online doing things that have little to do with work. Just as holidays and lunch breaks are part of working life, sending emails to friends and posting on chat sites were also part of it and to say that workers are slacking is misleading as long as the job work is done.
