這個字已出現好一陣子了，但因為這陣子剛好教小朋友們couch potato，所以到韋氏網路字典查字時，才被這個名詞吸引住。
定義: a person who spends a great deal of time using a computer
Although I don't spend a lot of my time in front of the computer as much as I did a year ago, I still consider myself a mouse potato. I really cannot live without it.
這個名詞的中文翻譯有蠻多種的，有的是直譯為「滑鼠馬鈴薯」，或有人翻成「網蟲」，而將couch potato譯為「電視蟲」。我個人較喜歡「電腦迷」，和「電視迷」。
