(From the Daily Mail) A number of major firms have banned employees from accessing
Twitter, after it emerged that time wasted on social networking
websites was costing businesses £1.38billion each year.
A survey
published today found that 57 per cent of workers use sites such as
Facebook and Twitter during office hours, spending an average of 40
minutes a week posting messages and sending 'tweets'.
The social networking sites have
already been banned by many large firms and some City banks.
