i spend more time on the forum than the wife would like. i browse the forum between chores and kids activities. (see today thread for hide and seek tips )
It is difficult to tell. I'm logged in always when home or at office, both at Seven Forums and Eight Forums. As I am insomniac and usually only sleep about 5 hours, it means I'm logged in at least on one of my computers something between 17 and 20 hours a day.
But the forum activity is then a totally different thing. For instance when working I mostly just check the RSS feed every now and then, picking most interesting headlines for deeper inspection. Same at home, the normal life, family, friends and neighbors have little bit higher priority than anything online, so any offline activity goes first.
This, constantly online but prioritizing offline activities over online stuff makes that sometimes I post / response only 10 to 15 times a week, sometimes a few times that in a single day. This is also the reason why I have decided against joining any other forums; time is limited and life offline important, better to focus on one (for me the SF & EF are one thing) instead of only using a few minutes on several forums.

I constantly find myself hovering my mouse around my win7 bookmark wondering if anything new is happening :) It's quite addictive! In a good way of course I would be lost without my windows & forum, even though I am new here.
I wonder how much Shawn and John spend my guess a lot
I don't really know how much time I spend here but I'm usually going from here to eight to techent and several other forums I belong to plus a knitting site that covers a lot of other groups. This is on and off all day, I'm retired and don't go anywhere and according to the doctors I'm not supposed to do housework, that's a laugh who else will do it.
I will say since I got my Notebook I'm online a hell of a lot more.
