hey friends Well, i'm just wondering on how to devote our time faithfully!! Personally, it is really so difficult to chat up with my online friends at the same time! I get really confused & I can't focus on anything at all when everyone is mostly popping up especially those whom I haven't seen for such a long time... How about you? any ideas to organize the whole thing?

hi there sugar,, first of all if you don't want to be disturbed,don't turn yourself available... turn yourself invisible or busy,in this way your friends would think you don't want to be disturbed. well,it's always up to you who you really want to chat with.yeah, sometimes it's also my problem. i have few friends in my friend's list in YM,but most of the times,the ones that i don't like to chat is there. though that person sends me messages,even i'm invisible,i hope he'll just understand why i can't chat with them. well,i just can't take it sometimes cause they would be mad at me. that's why when i get my time,i do chat with them and apologize for not having time to chat with them.it's just that...

@ Anna I usually turn myself off as it is the best thing ever otherwise, nothing would seem to help...If I set my status as Away, or busy; they would start popping up no matter whatsoever and they would so mad at me instead..

Aha!! I don't think I can do that..I do set my status as Away or busy, yet; they would just keep on popping up that I have to reply back!! It is really difficult to do so specially when i'm really busy..

Well, I can definitely chat with all the online friends at once because I have not so much friends and talking to more than 5 friends is not so difficult. I have not more than 10-15 friends in my chat list. And I talk to 3-5 friends at once luckily because timing are very different. Most of my friends are at different states and countries as well so time rarely match with me. When I logged in they are not and when they, I am not.. but sometimes we do catch up...

Same here. I think I can handle up to 3 friends at once. More than that I get confused and its really hard to reply to all of them. So most of the time I forgot to reply to at least 1 of them, which make them feel bad about me.

yeah it does happen to me a lot!! if i'm Online; that means a disaster as I know myself i can't be loyal to my friends replying them all at once! there must be some who would get really mad at me..it drives me confused unable to focus on the other hand that is why I very seldom get myself online and most of the time handling messages offline as it is much better and convenient to all..

I can chat with more than 1 person at the same time. I can multi-task and I'm a pretty fast typist. But you are right, it gets difficult and sometimes you lose your train of thought.

Hello i am always in 'invisible to all' mode in my yahoo chat, thought there are many contacts i dont chat with all, if some body pops up, i just ignore if i don't want to chat, more over the times are differnt, i talk to only few, and just one at a time... Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Professor
