Electronic busy most commonly referred to as Ebusy refers to the growing trend in electronic responsibilies at work. As more and more people find themselves spending a majority of their work time focused on tasks such as email, e-tail and e-commerce, the descriptor of ebusy seems appropriate to describe their growing work load. Origins of the word stem from the accidental mispelling of the word "busy" by a member of a large internet discussion group. The group, known as "The MoF," on the bulletin board Scubaboard.com popularized the word and brought it into everyday usage.
