Surf smart at work:

It is beneficial for companies to provide each of their employees with broadband access. It makes it much easier to communicate as well as do research. Of course, it's also a plus with personal business. Usually companies won't frown on the fact if you surf the internet sparingly for personal use. However, keep in mind most large companies probably have software that monitors internet activity. Not only can a company tell how long you surf, but what sites you've accessed. So you might want to think twice before clicking on a non-politically correct link your buddy sent you.
