Have you ever logged on to the Internet looking for something? And while you were doing your research you realized you can open another tab in your browser to check the latest news. And while you are at it you open another tab listen to a music stream. And then you open another tab to play a massively multiplier online game. And then while you were doing all those things you decide to open another tab so that you can watch video streams.

I have read that Attention Deficit Disorder begins from childhood and continues throughout a person’s adult life.

So far, the best cure I’ve found is to unplug the Ethernet cable from the DSL modem.
