Farmville and Facebook at Work – Good for You? — Infographic

by Matt Fields

If you ever wanted to play Farmville or Mafia Wars at work, but it was against corporate policy, then your lucky day may have just come in the form of this infographic.

Based on research from the MIT Sloan School of Management, the University of Melbourne, and technology researcher Gartner, the below infographic makes the case that browsing Facebook at work is actually good for business.

This study highlights how social media has become an integral part of our social fabric as a species. It highlights the integration by presenting research that shows that even seeing positive updates on Facebook from a distant friend can have a big impact on your overall happiness.

Social media, Facebook and even social games like Farmville have become an integrated part of our daily life. Will there come a day when people unite to demand that no company shall prevent any employee from tending to his or her crops while at work?
