British Internet users spend an average of two days a month surfing the web aimlessly, or "wilfing" as the activity has been dubbed.

Although people log on with a purpose, they are now being offered so much choice and online distraction that many forget what they are there for.

Wilfing? That's a new one to me.

My Google homepage can be a major distraction. I fire up a browser window to look for something, get distracted by content on my homepage, and forget what I was going to look for.

*admin should probably go back to the non-personalized homepage.

I don't call that 'wilfing.' I call that being 'bored.'

Yes, it's truth.
