Ex 1: John: "What are you up to today? Would you like to grab some lunch with me?"
Jane: "I'm sorry, I can't. I have a bunch of internet errands I have to get done."
Ex 2: Jill: "Jack it's 8pm, you're still wearing your pajamas and you haven't left that computer! Have you been wasting all day surfing the web?!"
Jack: "Whoa, chill out, I've been busy. I paid the bills, emailed John and Jane about camping next weekend, booked us flights to visit your parents, posted some items to sell on craigslist, bought a groupon to your favorite restaurant, submitted my research paper, and I ordered you that necklace you were eyeing at the store for half-price off of amazon.com."
Jane: "Well, I cleaned the tub."

Generally rubs his bishop over linux searching for open ports on other peoples computers. They have many many online friends all over the world. More than likely a moderator of a forum or game server. Conspiracies are a must!

A person who is in need of sleep who is mindlessly surfing the Internet. Usually an insomniac who gave up tossing and turning in bed and who turned on the computer to have something to do.
I have got to see my doctor about stronger sleeping pills. I was up all night doing the Internet Zombie thing. Gosh, I think I bought four or five things last night but I won't even know what they are until they arrive in the mail.
