Hi First and foremost it is myLot for me as I have discovered great friendships through discussions and also get to earn extra too, then I spend a lot of time doinfg surveys and prize quizzes. I very rarely surf the net as such. I get back ache from time to time and listen to my body and take a break for a while. Ellie :D

I find myself addicted to surfing sites related to stockmarket like bseindia, moneycontrol, ecomomictimes, businessstandard. These are the sites which i surf daily apart from checking my mail. I then move onto sites which give me earning opportunities mylot,linkgrand,clixsense, payperpost and my blog are the ones where i work daily. If some surveys are being offered then i would take these opportunities on a priority basis. I do sometimes face problems like tireness but this is not a common thing for me. I try to work only to the limits which my body permits.

It depends on my mood, really. Though most often I just like surfing while I'm chatting with friends. I always have something like AIM or some other messenger up (I have several) and I'll have most of my attention on my friends online. However, in between responses I'll also be surfing around on, say, youtube. Social sites don't do much for me for the most part.

I think web surfing is the most addictive especially when i go to random sites that other people submit. I think that would be the most entertaining thing other than playing games. I would be more addicted to games if i could play them online, unfortunately i can't get them to update properly and therefore am not able to play against other people around the globe.

It would be pc surfing for me. I am not really the type of person who does online gaming so I wouldn't prefer that option. About social networking, I was only addicted to these on the first few months when these are still new. After a while, I'm back on surfing the net.
Hmmm, long pc usage makes users prone to headaches and back aches due to its sedentary nature so I try to limit my pc use. I log in in the morning, then back again mid-afternoon. I try to spread it out as much as possible just to avoid headaches (which comes more often now!) :) Hope you'll appreciate my opinions!

I think it's a combo for me. I use facebook a lot and when I do, I look around, look at people's pictures, basically surf. I also play a lot of games on facebook. Sometimes they are so addicting that I cannot stop playing and end up playing the whole day. So really, for me, its the social sites that are my worst addiction.

I am addicted purely to pc games. They are so good now especially multiplayer gaming. The graphics on modern pc games are immense and i think playing online is great. We get lots of friends together and go around in groups on the internet. I used to be addicted to instant messaging but those days are long gone for me.

I do rarely play and yes I certain times have back ache and if I have it then I would and rest or do something others. But I do surfing other sites so that I could know what all good sites are there and also in certain way enhance my knowledge too.

For me, it must be pc surfing. I like to surf the most. Pc games is not my type anymore, i don't know why. Probably because i'm getting older for that.

Well, as for me, all are addictive, depends on my moods. Sometimes, I'm addicted to PC games, that will not stop playing until I at least finished some level, there are times also that I am addicted to net surfing, for my works and online earnings and visit some social sites like mylot. But I really used PC a lot, it was very important in my daily life. So, I usually feel some pains like backache and watery eyes, after a long hours facing and working on the computer.

Well i'm addicted to pc games as well as earning money online. Now I do not know what to be addicted more to. Games or surfing the net. My problems that I usually encounter are pain from the behind. I should be getting a throw pillow I must place here so that I could spend more time being addicted! hehe!
