I'm just wondering what you all do on the computer..
I'm just asking, if you don't wanna tell me it's okay:)

Anyway, I usually chat on msn and youtube, I am on GOF, I also hang out on my facebook and neopets...
I like making videos and editing images.. I think it's pretty fun, other than that I usually listen to music or watch a movie/an ep of Xena...

So what do you do??

Let's see...I won't tell you everything...but here's usually what I do:

*Go on forums such as GOF, Mags LBT forum, and Shauni's Haven: A Fanfiction Forum
*Make videos on imovie and put them on youtube
*Write stories (fanfictions, haiku etc)
*E-mail
*Web surfing

that's about it.

pc1: websurf, check email, visit here & some other forums, sometimes buy things online, download some podcasts, watch some stuff on youtube sometimes, & some videos.  

Pc2: play pc video games, watch videos that won't play in sync on pc1, get screen captures for the lbtwiki.

Everything but games pretty much.  I play a few classics like tropico and star trek armada, but VERY rarely.  I usually have too much other stuff to do.  Here is what I mostly use the computer for, but I use it for just about everything except for games:

*school work
*buying parts
*LBT Projects
*video making/editing
*Music making/editing
*surf the net
*make money
*email
*forums
*Movie watching (My monitor is bigger than my TV :lol )
*TV Watching (although I do it very rarely, I have a TV tuner card in my computer where I can connect my comcast digital cable television service)
*Picture editing (this is a big one.  I do this A LOT)
*Programming
*designing web sites
*MSN Messenger
*Education (I teach a computer class up at the church)
*Hacking
*Shopping
*Advertising
*Phone (I have a phone service through the internet where I can just connect a regular home phone and use it for $20 a year)
*File hosting (when someone gets their computer repaired, I also sell them server space for profit.  10gb for $19.99/yr, 100gb for $119gb/yr......)
*Writing (I do a lot of that.  I like to write about lots of stuff.)


That's just the main stuff I do.  I do a lot of other things, but not all of the time.

Hmm, let's see:

All the usual stuff:
Internet
E-mail
MSN / webcam / etc. :p
Listening to music
Watching movies that I don't have physical copies of


A little bit of gaming, though I could live without it.

Music composition/production
Photoshop
Programming
Web design
Possibly 3d graphics later

Writing
Job hunting
Banking


I could live with a fairly old computer if not for my music software demanding the computing power of a small country! :p
Speaking of which, I'm having nothing but trouble with one of my plugins..It's driving me nuts. :p

EDIT: Yarr, I forgot to make mention of my music listening...  That be a big passion of mine...
"And the Most High said unto Moses, Ahayah-Asher-Ahayah.  And he said, Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel, Ahayah hath sent me unto you...  This is my name forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations."

1953-2011...  One day, mother, I shall see you again...

Hello:
 Well, I don't give the most exciting use to my pc, but I usually:
- check e-mails.
- check the forums.
- play games, specially Star Trek Armada 1/2, Star Trek Bridge Commander and other games.
- I listen to music (a lot)
- to watch videos.
- I also do some modding and practicing my 3d modelling skills for Star Trek Armada2, specially for the Battlestar Galactica modification in progress. (I'm still a beginner, but I already can do pretty ships, like a Cylon Resurrection ship B) ).
- I also do (in a very low degree) some writing... but just ideas here and there.
