So what exactly do you use the internet for on your casual evening? Which sites type do you visit, do your chat or read articles and which other online-based applications are you using?

Apart from playing games and posting here, I spend a reasonable amount of time chatting with the people I haven't seen in years over Facebook and MSN. Then I read articles about some word that somebody used but I've never heard of before on Wikipedia, watch a few reviews on gamespot or just watch videos, e.g. films, series, anime, etc.

What about yourself?

What I most do online is update my DA or search for brushes, renders and new images for my banners! I'm not usually on MSN just on my uni time so if I have any doubt to ask my friends... I'm on holidays now but in uni time I sreach for tons of websites that explain the subjects I have :)

I talk to a few special people quite a lot n_n

I also browse an RO forums :(, facebook, email, and more recently this site in my spare time. When I'm really bored I mess around with graphics in Paint Shop Pro and make av/sigs or something. xD When I'm really <i>really</i> bored I mess with LJ. ;)

Facebook mainly, recently. MSN, always, hugely. Biggest distraction ever :p Gmail-emails, email-checking in general, EoFF, LJ, Youtube (YES!), sometimes dA when I'm bored...uhm...last.FM a lot. Sometimes I just browse stuff on The Guardian online, and/or Wikipedia. And then I spend a lot of time searching for lyrics and guitar tabs. :)

Normally I just go to Gaia and IM on Yahoo, but now it's getting really boring and pointless, so I started looking up drawing tutorials and AMV's. And I like posting alot.:)

I do everything that the internet has to offer me...which is why my PC almost melts down everyday and my supposed "unlimited" broadband is being limited by my ISP because im taking so much bandwidth up. They are even threatening me with "steps" if i dont reduce my downloading/bandwidth usage to under 40GB a month.

Well, what I mainly do is talk to my lovely girlfriend since we live pretty far apart. Besides that I talk to other friends and post on forums, RPing as well.

I keep up with several Video Game, Technology and Anime news blogs using Google Reader. I almost always have *something* downloading, be it anime or some free game. I have tons of stuff I've downloaded but have hardly touched, like entire series of anime and programs I thought were cool but still haven't tried.

I try to avoid Piracy. Try.

Now and then I would get into a good conversation with a friend or a few on an IM and that would eat up my time. Most of my computer's time is spent watching stuff I downloaded. Though I did just get a new computer, so I've been looking for some games to play on it.

In general: Waste time.

Specifically: EoFF, LJ, FG, Bash, 8-Bit Theatre, YouTube, news, sports, watching television I missed (such as Neighbours, Newsnight or Question Time), occasional shopping, Wikitimewasting and for chatting (generally just MSN and IRC, very occasionally AIM).

Basically I get on and check EoFF and a text based RP site I am on. That is soon followed by me going to Hotmail and Facebook. Sometimes I check my uni e-mail address too. Then I will check LJ Friends, read a few webcomics, check for new torrent releases for Bleach (Wed night) or Shonen Onmyouji (series I am watching now). Sometimes I will go to either Wikipedia or Gamefaqs if there is something in particular bothering me. Also I will have MSN open yet talk to few or no people (once in a blue moon I will open AIM).
