This morning I decided to get the lawn mower out and cut some grass, there I am pushing the mower along , and all I can think about is, I wonder if ive had any emails, or replies to my forum posts . Five minuets in and I have a burning desire to stop mowing the lawn and dash back to my computer screen to check things out .

So this got me thinking , how many hours a day on average do you think that you sit at your computer , personally I think I'm sat at my computer between 4 - 5 hours a day .

To find out if I am addicted to the internet , I took an on line test , and my

score was - 50

so how many hours on average , do you think you spend sat in front of your computer every day .

I took this test

and got a score of 50

What score will you get ?

29

I'm ok..........score 28. But then most of my internet use is done at work.

33 (average) for me.

forty - borderline....that makes sense

28

15

43

60

82.... understandable given field of study

Get back out there and mow that lawn you lazy b'stard.

41. Now back to watching porn, Ciao.

40 !!

28 Mostly Thaivisa....

27, so I'm not addicted, but I spend 18 hours a day online.

16

41 For work I do Computed Tomography so on a computer a lot. I don't have cable TV, can't stand commercials every 6 minutes, so i spend my off work hours online.

absolutely ridiculous amount... i didn't take the test, as i already know i've got a problem...but (there i go making excuses!) a lot of the time i spend is at work during "free" hours.

i often wish i lived in a time where there were no such thing as computers... i would probably have some semblance of an interest and hobbies and if i put as much time into something else as opposed to computers and internet time, i'd likely be a master at whatever it was i put that time into.

10 hours a day on work days.

Maybe 3 to 4 on a weekend.

I used to, it was boring at work in those days.

i resemble that remark.

Laptop on coffee table. Its on whether im watching a movie working or what have you.

I source all my entertainment (ie videos online), as well as eke out my living.

i also have no problem just walking away from it all for a few days

My machine is on 24 hours a day, but that does not mean I am sitting there all the time,

perhaps 3-4 hours a day, but then I am retired

I scored 16

On a social level I am probably more obsessive about missing F1 races

than getting in line and reading my e-mail.

73

But I live online, I work online all day. And all night I'm either online working or while watching stuff from the computer on the telly.
