Cyber Monday

Do we have to name everything? Honestly, I have never heard of "Black Friday" as it referred to the shopping day after Thanksgiving until maybe a week before Thanksgiving, but today is apparently "Cyber Monday." Who thinks this stuff up?

Bosses beware: Workers today may not be as productive as usual. It's Cyber Monday, one of the busiest online shopping days of the year. More than one-third of the consumers polled say they will go online at work where they have faster Internet connections. Total North American Internet traffic by visitors per minute already is up 35 percent from a typical Monday, according to the Akamai Net Usage Index.


Hey, I blog at work, why can't they shop? Just don't be stupid and get caught.

UPDATE: Llama's look to try to capitalize on the cyber shopping craze... if only they had something to buy...
