Do you use social networking sites while at work?

If 60% of the employees happen to keep an eye on social networking sites during their time at the office, how and to what extend it affects their efficiency and the overall results of the company? And is there a positive reference between the free internet access at the office and the employees’ motivation? Or the social networking is just another sophisticated way to waste time at the office?
