Surfdom (sû
rf dum), n. 1. The lack of ability of some people to free themselves
from the Internet (and other modern technology), causing them to spend much too much time
on the Net, thereby diminishing brain capacity by filling it with too much junk, instead of doing the things they should be doing. 2. Someone who is dom from spending far too much time on the Internet and not enough time in real life. (Alternate spelling: serfdumb.)
Because so many people have gone the way of the
surfdom, less people are
checking books out of libraries; it is a sad
time in which we live.
