Twitter costs UK business £1.8 billion

I love these reports that always accompany the rise of popular media - ba humbug

UK businesses are losing £1.83bn in productivity because employees are using social networks such as Twitter at work.

In a survey of 1,460 office workers, commissioned by IT services firm Morse, 57% of respondents said they use social networking sites for personal reasons during work time.

The report reveals that workers spend on average 40 minutes a week on the sites. Some respondents believe that some colleagues spend about one hour a day on these websites.
