The Internet is indeed a distraction, but mail and usenet are my main problems. (And blogs.) Google and Wikipedia are very useful - the main problem there is refraining from following all those interesting looking links.
As for the fanfic book: "About the Author Sheenagh Pugh has published 10 collections of poems and translations and two novels. She is a reader in Creative Writing st the University of Glamorgan and lives in Cardiff."
They must be doing something right, because some of her students have books out with Real Publishers. And that's one course where they won't be told that genre is beneath them. :-)
