i use my computer pretty much in bed since i had my laptop.

i found that i keep the computer at a comfortable arms distance so that i can't get close enough to slouch. usually by the time i get on the computer, i'm ready to kick my feet up. so, mine are currently stretched out onto the chair across from me, sitting up fairly straight. i try to keep good posture in mind when i'm on the computer so that i'm not tossing and turning all night from an achy back.

When i'm at home i'm free to sit with one of my foot is on the computer's table, but when i'm at school, usually we have 3 hours hands on computer i always removed my shoes.heheheheh...my boyfriend don't like that kind of posture at school he used to be my classmate in programming subject.heheheh

I always make it sure to sit properly when I will be in my computer and I am looking forward always with my back if it is inside and out of the house but I could make my leg in the different position so comfort like I will put it in another chair to hang it .........in the office I cannot do this kind of position so shameful.....

i have my own bizness so i am constantly at the computer i have tried standing sittin up but somehow i manage to slouch i pay for it later but i am getting better at typing fast

Heck no, I site with my legs crossed underneath me and leaning forward. I am to lazy to sit right plus its not comfortable.

No i slouch in my computer chair but i find it more comfortable than in a cafe where you can put your leg up high

Yes i sit properly before the computer if i don't have much work.if there is a lot of work i come forward and start typing on the keyboard very fast.

hmm thats a big problem i have. i sit on the computer all day at work which is fine as i have a very comfortable seat but at home i a problem as i sit real bad. i am on a arm chair with the lap top on my lap. which def does give me a back ache in the mornings. i do intend doing something about it soon

don't have proper chair in our house for computer. a little bit lower than my computer table. one of my plan to buy from my earnings here will be the good chair that i am more comfortable in setting it.

f you really want to promote good posture you get a cushion with a cut out for your tailbone...

lol no! I am all over the place! i never sit properly. i always slouch, use my elbow as a prop up and all that good stuff. At home i lean back and use the desk as a foot stool. Maybe i should it might make a better impresion here! since i am the receptionist thats in the very front of the office!

I have to say, I am not. Your reminder made me start though. I was leaning forward also.

I must admit, I really should get myself a proper typists chair with proper back support. I have to hold up my hand and say that I usually end up slouching at my desk so I will probably end up with a bad back unless I do something about it.

I try real hard to sit properly but find myself leaning forward or with my right leg in the chair. I really try to keep my shoulders from slouching but catch myself quite often leaned forward, shoulders slouched, typing away which is how I was sitting when this post brought it to my attention. I am now sitting properly...lol

Well, for an hour or 2, I seat properly but after that, I get uncomfortable sitting in front of my computer. My back hurts. lolz!

i do random positions when facing my laptop... like lying down, doing half sitting half lying down, leaning so close to the monitor and stuff. but now that you mentioned this, i'm sitting properly right now. hehe thanks

I can never sit up straight at my computer if my life depended on it. I tend to lean into my monitor as if I really need to be 3 inches away to read what's on my screen. It looks really horrible but when I try to correct it, my neck and back begin to hurt. Grrr!
