well at the moment iam on the internet and feeling bored... i relised a while ago the internet got very boring to me. and i just wondered who people can keep themselves occupied on the internet for ages. instead of waiting for a very long download.

dont you find the internet boring?

Internet always has a new thing to watch or learn, like Trekkie101 says i like read forum, well not all the forums in the world, just stick to one and stay there, you will find a lot of things and if in the case you don't know something all the comunity will help you. Well me always use the internet to download things, i like movies, so im always donwloading from differents places, first was imesh, then dc and ocasionally use bt, and the last one p2m. Another thing i like is chat with friends, and that keep you busy a lot of time.

Another thing, when i'm downloading something, sometimes i look for long time how the bytes come to my pc, maybe it's something pretty bored, but i like to do this, dont know why tongue.gif

In all honesty, at times I seem to have too little time... Here's a list of current projects, sorta..
  • Being active here, and moderating
  • Running a forum for a bunch of friends
  • building a site for the same bunch of friends (who really deserve a kick someplace wink.gif)
  • building MY own site
  • being a mod in an msn group of survivors
  • doing some photoshop
  • learn/work in flash/actionscript
  • talk to people who need to learn to GOOGLE for answers to questions such as "do you have any links to ....."
  • trying to actually finish a program in Delphi (I know ... Delphi is bad, but it's the first thing I learned and didn't pay attention in class blegh)
  • Playing ShadowMUD
  • making futile attempts to keep my posting rate up in USI (Play by email RPG)
Oh yeah, I also listen to music, read articles, read other forums and just do some occasional Idle surfing wink.gif

I usually listen music (metal) while doing everything on internet, like:
Being on the forum of my favorite band (therion), I'm a mod there.
Being on their chat.
Being in MSN
Being in this forum smile.gif
Reading a lot about metal bands
Reading about every interesting thing it crosses in my path.

pr0n?

Well actually just general surfing will do when that does not happen I usually just buzz around forums for a while. I spend an amazing amount of time on forums or reading articles while I am DLing soemthing. Then again I also play some browser based games and thsoe two take up a nice chunk of time. I mdoerate some forums aswell as am part of several online groups. Overally it keeps me pretty buisy happy.gif

I can alsways find something to amuse ymself with like most recently a neat flash game called Nanaca-Crash ( http://megami.starcreator.com/nanaca-crash/ )

boards, forums, chatting. I'm usually not into technical forums like this one...but other computer tech forums don't offer me hosting lol. Anyways, I just kinda chill with my friends. It's easier to get a large gathering outside when you can just contact a mass number of people online. That way, it is guarantee you will get someone to show to basketball pick-up games or something along those lines ^_^

I'm addicted to reading blogs on the Internet. I read both my friends' blogs as well as blogs by professionals like Gawker, Gizmodo, and many others. That alone use up a lot of my time.
