This place gets a lot quieter when Countdown's off air, so maybe people indulge in their other Internet hobbies. Which things do you do regularly online?

Only 10 apply to me.

Would've been 11 if you added "Anything Else". :)

Not Internet Dating I hope, Howard . . . your wife seems very nice ;)

Actually I did think of putting "Other (please specify)", but I got a bit bored with that option, so feel free to share in a post if you do anything else.

No. Internet Dating was not one I had in mind. :)

One thing missing from your list, which is also in addition to other activities I was thinking of earlier, is "Game Playing", such as Apterous.

Why have you lumped work/my own business together? "What I do on the internet is work"; "what I do on the internet is my own business" — hardly the same.

Lol brilliant.

You're on some kind of list now as well.
Probably a list of funny people.

When you become a True Internet Master you'll realise they can complement each other :)
That said, I've not yet teased one out on anyone's wall.

Bit surprising that at least two people who have voted so far have excluded forums.

Guess it's all relative, and requires some personal interpretation. For example, I check my MySpace account perhaps once every 3 or 4 months, but didn't think this was good enough to tick the MySpace box. And whilst I often end up reading an article on a blog, it's usually one that's been sent as a link to me from a friend or linked from another site I read, so the fact that the article is on a blog and not just anywhere on the Internet is irrelevant, hence not ticking that box either.

Is this some kind of weird joke Alec? If so, I don't get it in the slightest.
If not, and you're just being an utter noob, try clicking here.
