While watching last week’s Democratic National Convention, I noticed that CNN was promoting their website often and would use the phrase “Watch With Your Laptop”. Apparently, CNN is trying to integrate the TV experience with the Internet, via their blogs and, of course, their iReports.

It made me wonder: how many people actually watch TV with their laptops? I’d say very few although I am an exception.

I always keep my mini laptop nearby, in case I need to Google something. But it’s too difficult to pay attention to the TV screen and my computer at the same time. I don’t have that kind of attention span, where I can multitask successfully.

Besides, did I really have to go visit CNNPolitics.com to continue the discussion online with other CNN viewers? Nah. I’d rather go someplace else, like Huffington Post or CNN.com instead. And it’s good to take a breakfrom watching TV and do something else, too.

I think it’s good that CNN is trying to bring together the TV and computer. But I think the type of content must move audiences to do so. News might be a good applicationm as is sports or other live events. Movies, I don’t think so.

Anyway, do you watch TV with your laptop?
