Do you think people used to be more productive at work before YouTube, email forwards and other time wasters/amusements?
I would imagine they would have spent more minutes of the day working, but I think a lot of recent technology has made people more efficient... so because they can get more done in less time, they have more time to spend on silly things now!
Also there is something to be said about taking breaks and how that helps your overall productivity.
What do you think?

People always find a way to waste time 
Before it was "the water cooler", solitaire on their computer, etc.

@tororojo: good point! I forgot about Facebook because I always check it on my phone, not at my desk, but I would think lots of people check at their desk.
@JoJoGirl: yes I have totally had chats by the actual watercooler... Although sometimes they are actually about work and its not just wasting time.
