Im sure a lot of us have an online routine that we do almost every day, or maybe everyday....

So what is yours?

Mine is something like this:

- Check e-mail
- Check forums (wap forum, astahost etc.)
- Posting in forums (if anything interesting)
- Check my wap site
- Then read sports

This is easy

• When I log in, my mail accounts are automatically checked (Hotmail and GMail)
• After reading the mail (if there is any), I start up Firefox (if there was no (g)mail ) Once it loads, I open several web sites I check regularly, including Astahost
• The next thing I do is turning to various news sources I use for updating my two web sites.
• And in the end, I just freelance the web while creating a template or chatting. Whatever I'm into at that moment.

launch Mail
iChat comes up automatically
Look at Slashdot
Check Blender forums
Post here at Astahost
Check Email
Start real work

First, I start up Google Talk to see if I have any new mail. Then, I open up my Firefox and log into Gmail regardless if I have anything new in the inbox. Then I read my Google Alerts that I get in the mail everyday, and then read the "Newgrounds top 5" mail to check out the newest flashes on the net. After that, I check out Astahost (but not anymore, though, because school has become much more time-consuming than before). Finally, if I still have time, I work on whatever project I'm working on at that moment.

Dial up and open SwiftSwitch. Log into RS, maybe go on IRC.

Open Opera, email (by msn), sometimes msn, rarely limewire.

On Opera, I have one tab for RSC, then the other goes through about 5 forums, including this one. Obviously more tabs for any intresting links.

what is RSC? i am just curious...

Well, first thing I do is login, then open Firefox. Then I wait a couple seconds for Firefox to check my email (three Gmail accounts, one for spam, one for friends, and one for official matters). Afterwards, I read/reply to email if needed and proceed to several forums that I go to a lot. Then I open up Radioblogclub and listen to some music as I start working on homework.

Then if I finish my homework and still have time to spare, I either spend that designing websites or just doing some random Google/Wikipedia searches. Usually I note whatever I find under a new heading in Google Notebook so that I now have many categories of miscellaneous research there....

Check forums
check forums
repeat

Seriously; I should stop myself from refreshing them too often. When I boot up though I think first things I do are:

-log in GMail notifier
-If new mail, check.
-log in MSN
-fire up X-Chat 2 IRC (although I forget to do this often until later in cycle)
-Browse on firefox. Fora, Digg.com ...
-Launch Xfire and game
-Check for game videos to add to Game website
...

Some gaming and other stuff woven in between. Now it is 0:33 am, lessons at univ later yet going to pull an allnighter learning java or something. Whee!

Hehe... I rule

1. Launch Firefox & go to Gmail
2. Check School email
3. Check other main email
4. Optional. Check Yahoo mail
5. Astahost & see what's going on
6. Check other forums
8. Start AIM & MSN because I probably forgot to
9. Open Dreamweaver & CoreFTP
10. Open a site or some sort of project & work on it
11. Download some scripts at hotscripts
12. Any "real" work
