The article says that internet use boosts productivity only if it is done less than 20% of time. How is this relevant to the real life? :D

Also the article suggests that the productivity improvement is not caused by internet per se, but by having short breaks during work.

So I think many people are beyond the point where internet use could boost their productivity.
