GO! Do it manually?
May 19th, 2008 by Jim & EmHow much do you rely on your computer?
From Airline tickets and amazon to E-bay and electricity bills our time online increases.
How much time do you spend online everyday? Include work, play and surfing - Do tell flower smellers.
Roughly a couple of hours a day. If I’m ‘in the office’ I’m hooked up 8 hours for e-mails. Typically I check news on the BBC first thing before leaving for work, then circa 45 mins doing bloggish stuff like Twitter, Blogcatalog, Stumble, Digg etc… If ‘working from home’ then I dip on-line every couple of hours for 15 mins or so. This is one of those 15 mins
Usually part of my brain is ‘on-line’ 24/7 wondering how to grow my readership base…any flower analogies welcome.

Cheers Reasonable Robinson…
The best way to increase your readership is to, at first, feature other blogs at your site.
A great place to start.
Christ on a helicopter. What kind of name is that, ‘Reasonable Robinson’?
When I was working, anywhere from zero to 10 hours at the computer. Everything was done through the network, but you could work offline. But, when they needed to take my computer, I discovered all I could do was telephone calls which could take all day, but no where to document them. Everything eventually had to be put into the computer.
Now, that I’m not working. I can spend 8 hours looking up stuff, blogging, social blogging, responding/sending emails, shopping, playing games, journaling…and on and on. But, when it has been out of commission, it was difficult at first, but I always have stuff I can do for fun or household stuff. I am never bored with or without a computer. But, it is a significant link for socializing especially since my church has everything done via emails.
Do you remember the telephone or hand writing letters?

Well clueless - as hand written letter makes our hands ache - seriously! It’s been that long - AND - we rarely remember phone numbers now - it’s all there for us to see.
Must be all that Thai colonic stuff that’s made you achy and forgetful. Next time try pigging out.
LOL!! I almost spit my coffee at the computer screen!!!
A few hours per day…I cut back on my time online a few months back, being that I was losing hours of my day surfing online. I got lost in the online world and forgot that there was a real live world just outside my door …lol

I am online all day everyday, a lot of my applications are Intranet based so have to have it open.
Certain sites are banned such as Facebook but unbelievably you can still get on to Ebay.

Does loafing count?
Oh bugger. Someone is called clueless already.
I think what you were using was fine, because I am simply Clueless or Clinically Clueless, my blog title. Unless heartless fits you better…only you really know what is true!!!
However, others may suspect.
There. Better.
