THE MISSING LINK | Net Survey: Irish like it at work, French at night

When it comes to shopping through your monitor, are you more Irish or
Danish? Maybe you're a Swede in spending spirit. Amazon studied the
habits of its European customers. The river of data from the dot-com
shows nearly half of Irish eyes are Net shopping at the office on the
boss' time. The Brits are better but barely. Danes are great when it
comes to how they "spend" their workdays -- only 20% kick up the
kroner from the cubicle. The Dutch spend the least amount of time
tiptoeing through the mall of cyberspace, and the Swedes are the most
likely to buy things they don't need. Amazon needed to know this
stuff. The rest of us probably didn't, but what the heck? (Reuters)
