Study: Kids Multitask While Watching TV

A new study on social networking by Greenwald Associates reveals that kids are no longer glued to the television. Now, while the tube is on, many kids are also splitting their attention between the TV and the Internet.

The report showed that 64 percent of kids aged nine to 17 go online while watching TV. Of those, 73 percent say they're engaged in active multi-tasking.
