How many hours a day are you on this forum for?  I can honestly say I check on the source multiple times per day, probably totaling about an hour. I feel like some people (not to mention any names) practically live on here!  So, how long and when do you find the time?...work, home, when the wife falls asleep...etc...

I spend about 60 minutes a day on here reading threads. I check in the morning before work, again around lunch time, and then again at night around bedtime. Sometimes if I am in traffic, I log on from my iphone to browse to pass the time. The one day I didn't log on, the one piece of Breitling swag that I had been wanting was listed for sale. Luckily Fear had my back and asked the seller to hold it for me

I'm a mosquito - I come and go thoughout the day a few minutes at a time, suck some blood, and fly elswhere. It's a good place to spend a few minutes clearing my head when agitated or just bored and because of it I rarely throw a shoe or book across my office anymore. My staff hasn't suffered any wounds in months and assumes I'm just taking really good drugs. At night my laptop is often cued up here most of the night while I'm doing other shit. Because of it I haven't had to buy a new TV in months or take any really good drugs.

It used to be an hour or two per day, but I guess I'm down to maybe 30-45 minutes. I wish it was more because now I spend so much time reading to close the gaps that I don't post as much as I want to. My forum time normally comes when travelling to and from work, used to be a lot in the evenings but with "too much" family time at the moment it has been less for the latest months. |

I'm probably the same as Mfserge. I get to my work and check all the threads then again at dinnertime and then a couple of times in the evening. Altogether I spend to much time on the net especially at night through the winter. It's just now with the light nights coming in then I'll be a bit more active! Cheers |

Well....... I work on a computer all day so it's easy to leave the window open and flick back for a few minutes in between other work during the day. I generally spend some time when I first get to the office catching up on overnight posts, and because I am a moderator I do like to at least review all posts and deal with the spammers fairly quickly if Driver8 hasn't had a chance. I run my own business so in the evenings I am catching up with work that I haven't been able to do during the day because of working with clients and that's the same thing - keep the browser window open and take a few minutes here and there. I have also been editing a book for the last couple of months which has increased the computer time and that's a job that I definitely need a break from every few minutes. As the weather improves I'll be online less time on the weekends, but I usually have at least some work that flows over into the weekend so there will be some time online. |

It depends. I'm on the forum at least once 99% or so of days but time spent fluctuates between briefly once or twice in the morning and evenings to multiple short stays, to relieve the boredom of work or because there is some interesting forum activity - purchases, action etc. It's always a pleasure to spend some time here. |

Like Roff I work with computers everyday, so having the forum open in a separate window in the background is pretty easy. I'm not logged in all day, but I invariably drop in at least 10 times a day. I actually drop by far less at weekends because I'm doing other things, but when I'm at a PC, it's no hardship to have the forum open. Also, as a moderator I feel more obliged to drop in more often than I probably would if I was standard member. But ultimately I enjoy it here!

I log on a few times a day. Usually in the morning while having my tea and listening to Bloomberg's Ken Prewitt and Tom Keene Bloomberg Surveillance. Like other's on here I am on a computer a fair amount of time during the day so I check in once in a while when I have some free time to take my mind off work. Then at night, I spend a bit more time on here. At the end of the day, the source most def helps me relax, unwind and thats a good thing. |

I check in multiple times per day, usually just for a few minutes at a time. The time starts adding up quickly though. |

I do check the forum often as I am around a computer most of the day, but dont post as much due to my tight work schedule, this got worse when I got a promotion two years ago and started school last year. Now I try to make up for my lack of posting by doing reviews, taking videos, and pictures when I do have some free time. |
