By that, do you multi-task?
I often to listen to music while browsing the net. I listen to music while here on myLot. I would even go to those PTC sites that I'm a member of while listening to music and waiting for certain pages to load up on tabs here in myLot.
What else do you do while here on myLot while infront of your computer?

No, I haven't tried it and considering your comment on it getting slower when multiple programs are running, I guess I won't venture on that kind of multi-tasking yet
I sometimes eat infront of the computer but, always with a spoon since I don't want the keyboard to be sticky and find little bits of food in between the keys. The television is also viewable from my position when I use the computer so I could also watch television, if the show is also intersting
Thanks for sharing

So you set the screen size for RAN on a minimum so that you can still toggle with other windows on your computer like that site which you mentioned..
During the times that I played RAN, I always had it in full screen. Couldn't do what you just described since I can't look elsewhere while I'm playing.. attention is only on the game, as they say...

no i don't set the screen size for ran i just use the normal size. i just minimize it once in a while if a have finish a quest or if i just level up to check if there are new pm messages or i watch an episode of a tv series or even answer some discussions in mylot. i don't want to play continuously, i get bored instantly.

Cook while at the computer? You must be very good at it then. I'd have a hard time. I could surely know that what I'm cooking is already burnt by the time I smell them ^_^;
I also try to watch certain videos while on the computer, not much on television though, unless it is really interesting to me.
Music is something nice to accompany anything else for our ears are always free. ^_^

So yuwie's a social network site wherein you earn..
That's cool. I'll try it out.. not sure though if I'd be active on that since I'm more active here in myLot and completely keep on forgetting my accounts at friendster or even myspace.. I think I also have multiply for some reason..
As long as you are comfortable, it doesn't matter if your using a desktop or a laptop

Friendster is really quite popular among Social Network Sites here in the country. Same goes with Yahoo.
What's yuwie by the way?
On posting your blogs, do you also earn?
Chatting through SMS as well on Instant Messengers I see.. all these done while on bed..
you either have a very large computer monitor that can be viewed distanced from your bed with a wireless key board and mouse or you use a laptop.

No I didn't own my computer or should I say I'm not the only one who used it. In fact, there were three persons that is my brother, father and sometimes my sister - are using it. And we have a sort of agreement on the day and time we can used the computer for ourselves. So you see, I am doing all that in my time XD.

I listen to my fav music and browse other sites while waiting for some pages to load up. I'm running homebase job and extending customer support so most of the time I'm online with my IM and receiving msgs anytime. When I'm not busy, I also play wordgames online, read news articles and regularly check my accounts in other sites.

While surfing the net, I always listen to radio (news or music). From the news, sometimes I catch new ideas for discussion.

Up to now, I still can't listen to music while on the net. Though the laptop I'm using is already loaded with songs, it has choppy audio which doesn't make music sound like music at all
Yeah, watching news on television could really stir opinions which is up-to-date and really intersting for other members here as well

You edit your own films or you edit films that you put into certain media storage or simply edit movies?
Sorry, I'm not really that knowledgeable with how certain movies or videos are edited... the closest that I had made with editing videos was on cutting them in half to upload them on youtube

Downloading more ebooks? I agree, they don't cost us anything. I just wish I can stare long at our monitor especially when the ebook is so interesting to read. My eyes gets hurt often when I read through the monitor and I often read at night which makes it more difficult.
Thanks for sharing ^__^

I would be doing the same thing, if only the instant messenger installed on our desktop would function properly. It doesn't help at all and I think its just consuming memory space for our computer but, there are occasions that it would let us log in and get connected, other times, it would just suddenly log us out while in the middle of a conversation with someone
Music from a self-compiles playlist of random music from a radio?
I guess you had those two done, chatting while listening to music, when you were posting on this discussion of mine.
Thank you for sharing!

While I am on the computer I am also taking care of my 5 month old daughter. I make her bottles and change her diaper when she needs it and she plays beside me in her bouncer or her playpin. She is a very good baby actually. I also listen to music or watch TV when I need a break from MyLot or MySpace. Sometimes I eat while i'm on the computer or finish up some poetry. It all depends on what my mood is. Sometimes my husband takes care of Ally and I just post on MyLot for the majority of the day and don't do anything else.

Mothers are already multi-tasking at home when it comes to keeping the house, preparing a good meal, taking care of the children and so on related to the house, its amazing how you can also fit in computer routines within the already routined responsibility at home

Usually, I listen to music, surf the web, and write. I used to do my homework while on the computer, but I found it distracting, and my grades were starting to slip up. So now, I finish all of my homework before using the computer. But I still listen to music while doing my homework.
