How much time do you spend surfing on the internet?

zassc : True we are getting addicted to internet. You can at the way people like me post in mylot and other forums. But one thing is certain -- we should be able to manage without this also. Heaven will not fall down if we do not log on to internet. True internet is useful for working for another person whose face you do not see also.

like 1-2hours if i surf the net. usually the websites i visited are yahoo, facebook, youtube and etc. i read journals here to update and sometimes chat with friends...

I do drink and smoke occasionally and I'm not addicted to either. I am however 100 percent addicted to the computer lol. My mom was just telling me the other day, you're addicted to the computer! wow, tell me something I don't know, ha. I can't hardly get away from the computer for an hour. I am constantly trying to make money and trying to find new ways to actually make a half decent amount of money online so I can have something going for me at the moment. I'm not surprised how many people are addicted to the internet, I certainly am completely. We had about a half a week without power and I was going insane, I kept having to go to my mom's office to get internet. I never appreciated it more. I read one story once that a woman had her kid in a bathtub and he drowned because she was too busy on Facebook, or something like that, now that is scary.

I would say I am somewhat addicted to the internet and I have to keep myself in check. I used to game online and it was much worse back then spending most of my free time online on any given day. Now I am able to get other things done but I still get a bit sidetracked while I am online. Anymore I spend about 3 hours a day online. Some of that is money sites, email, fun sites, articles, doing research etc.. You just have to find balance. There are lots of activities I enjoy offline and I have to make time for those activities. If life is good outside of the internet you have a reason to pull yourself away from the activity.

Hello zassx Yes its a problem to get the addiction of internet but it is also very much useful.Today every work is shifting on internet.In these it is not possible to keep away from internet.But we must make some constraints on the internet usage that we have to follow a time limit on doing chatting, social networking.Researching on internet for your study is different part than surfing internet.It must be follow by teenagers.Long time work can give us more physical problem too.

I usually spend about 5 hours surfing on the internet to look for some acadamic infomation.And I also watch some funny videos which is made by the guys in our ages.Some people just become famous through the internet.It's an interesting phenomenon that you can see people who make some unordinary video on the internet become a famous star.We all know Justin Bieber,the handsome teenage super star.He is the typical example about this.So we can tell that the internet do attract many teenages which is why they addicted in it.

I will spend around twelve hours per day using the internet, but this is mainly because I work online so I have to sit at my computer all of the day to be able to earn the money that I need in order to pay my bills and things like that. If I didn't do it for that length of time, then I just wouldn't be able to do the things that I like to do in my life, which would be a real shame to be honest with you. I don't waste all of my day on games though like a lot of people do, so I really don't feel as though I am wasting my time because of that.

A lot of time, I wouldn't feel okay if I haven't internet so I guess I have an amount of addiction but I could live without it for a while, I like to read so I would catch up on that.

Ohhh nice ratio I will found out how many % people are using net in India.. I spend my 3 to 4 hours on surfing only on few selected sites. No facebook or orkut.

I say im internet addict! Hehe.. But i think only these days. I have no job for my, i just graduated college and im waiting for my nursing license. I prefer surfing the net over going out. I do watch my favorite korean movies online. The moment i wake up till going to sleep im on my phone doing internet. Im using wifi connection so non-stop internet surfing. I think for me its ok just to relieve boredome, but to students internet addiction can be bad coz their studies might be affected. Its good to use internet only i think 30 mins to one hr per day but beyond that its isnt good.

I spend more than eight hours a day spending the internet.I mostly use my phone because it easier to carry.I do it also if I can't sleep at night.

I usually spend between 6 to 10 hours a day as most of the time I am online anyway and to spend idle time between work as I work home based, i surf and enjoy searching the web for news, entertainment and of course sometimes it would also involve researching needed information. I usually visit many websites a day. I think for minors, there is this feature wherein the parents or guardian can offer limits to the sites they visit especially those that contain sensitive materials as well as limitation to the number of hours they use the computer. Another way is also to have password where they will not be able to access the net without adult supervision or permission.

I am not addicted of the internet because I can manage the feeling of not surfing the net for a couple of weeks without feeling horrible to myself.

I think I am addicted to the internet! Once i wake up in the morning I turn on my computer, get my coffee while it loads and then I am on it until I leave for school, which is 11:50 When I get home from school I am on the computer already and I stay on it until I go to bed... I am an internet addict! The sites I go on the most are Youtube, Facebook and Mylot of course!

I spend too much time surfing. Around 5 hours is normal even in a busy schedule. But then this is used for some important tasks as well like mostly on a game I play to earn (anno) and then here on mylot. As about addiction, I don't think am addicted because in the recent past, I had not opened computer for over a month. As about others being addicted, it is the responsibility of their parents to limit their access. Under 18, it is the guardian's responsibility of the child's welfare.
