Edited on Sat Apr-14-07 03:35 PM by Call Me Wesley
I'm just getting off of a VoIP conference call about the subject which was a question my friends asked on MySpace. I had to bring in some answers from an AOL chat and cross-link it with what I gathered from the 'Internet Addiction' Yahoo group. I even sent out some mass-emails and spent quite some time on IM to narrow it further down. But the real input, I think, I got from the 23 forums I'm a member of, and we started a poll about it on PollItAll.com, after reading through many blog entries (see results on my livejournal).
It's still work in progress, so I can't tell you right now. I'm on IRC, if you want to discuss it further. Or send me a PM. I don't sleep.
