Surfing the web has overtaken watching the TV as the favourite pastime of Britons, according to a survey commissioned by search engine Google. The survey, which covered more than 1,000 adults in the age group pf 16-64, found that on an average a person spend 164 minutes online every day, meaning 41 days a year, against 148 minutes watching television, which is equivalent of 37 days a year.

Men have been found to better women in surfing averaging 172 minute a day against 156 minutes a day by the latter. Nearly two-thirds of the respondents said they improved their online habit in the last one year, the highest increase being among the 16-24 year range.
