Most working Americans now use the Internet or email at their jobs

A new national survey shows that 62% of adults who are currently employed use the Internet or email at work and they have mixed views about the impact of technology on their work lives. On the one hand, they cite the benefits of increased connectivity and flexibility that the Internet and all of their various gadgets afford them at work. On the other hand, many workers say these tools have added stress and new demands to their lives. This survey also finds that 96% of those who work use the Internet, email or have a cell phone for some purpose in their lives, even if those things are not specifically tied to work.
