I spend anything from 2 hours through to 6 hours on my computer. I tend to come onto myLot first and respond to all discussions that I am able to, then I will check my e-mails and check my own blogs and those that I am registered with. I then usually have some video or photographs to work with and do a little while off-line and editing any articles/stories that I am currently engaged in writing. I am semi-retired now, so I have more time to do what I enjoy doing on the computer. _Derek

That's one blog I don't have yet is one on photography. I am not a professional, just an enthusiastic amateur, but you have certainly got me thinking about it now. _Derek

i can spend my times in front of computer up to 3-5 hours a day. Firstly, when i'm studying at my college using lapto. and then at home i'm used to playing game, surfing internet, editing photos, etc using my dekstop. I have addicted, i guess. Happy mylotting.

All day, and all night. I work online, for myself, all my income comes from online work. Working for me though involves looking at many products/websites, to see what works and what doesn't. Then I have a lot of software to try out/configure and test, then report on. After that I have lots of stats to analyse. There's always something to do online, so why leave!

I spend many hours on my laptop, pretty much most of my free time I have it fired up and I'm active in some area of the web or playing a game. Website wise, I load mylot up and my e-mails. I will generally respond to some of my friends discussions and then disappear to see what other sites are doing + what's new within the world. I like checking up on my football team too :)

Desktop and Laptop computer. - Desktop computers are usually in one room of the house, where as the laptop can be taken anywhere around the home or workplace.
Hello there akopoaysi, On an average day I will spend around 4 or 5 hours on my desktop computer, and around 2 hours on my laptop computer. During the day I will sit at my computer desk using the desktop and at night I will chill-out on the sofa with the laptop. I can spend so much time on the internet at the moment as I am inbetween jobs and I find it helps pass the time of day. It's also a great way to keep in contact with friends and family without having to spend money visiting or going out socializing etc which is handy when you dont have a wage coming in. Have a great day.

Far too many! Now that I am not working even part-time outside home I spend most of my waking hours in front the computer writing, tweeting, etc.

I would say that it is probably about seven hours a day. I spend a lot of time keeping up with my email and also with our playgroup that we started a few months ago. In addition to that, one of my favorite things to do on the computer is digital scrapbooking and I could easily waste eight hours a day on that, but there just aren't enough hours in the day to be able to do that. Oh, I also keep up with the house and the kids in between my spurts of computer time.

I have to use computer for 8 hours for the work,so I don't want to use it again when I am home at night.Usually I only spend about one hour at night just to communicate with my friends or skipping some news.
