What a revelation: students who only study an hour per week are heavy Facebook users.

...and YouTube. ...and CollegeHumor. ...and probably a thousand other sites.

This article is a joke. It's 2009. What do we expect to find kids with poor study habits in dorm rooms with high-speed internet connections and no cable TV doing?

Facebook, or any individual site, is a red herring here, IMO. Facebook just happens to garner a disproportionate amount of the traffic.
