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.
-
Me, I:
- Check my E-mails
- Read Fanfics
- Play Games
- Do Random Research
- Play More Games
- Check Forums (there's maybe three others besides the GoF that I'm a member of)
- Chat with those who want to chat with me via MSN
- Play Even More Games
...Yeah, I have too many games :DD
-
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:
*Typing school papers
*The GOF
*Checking and waiting eagerly for LBT fanfic updates on FF.net
*Keeping a lookout for any new LBT releases
*Reseaching
*Reading the news(that way I can pick only the headlines I wish to read about)
*Keeping track of my bank account
*Checking email
*Downloading tunes
*Finding info on future movie releases
That's all I can think of for now :lol.

Hmm, let's see:
All the usual stuff:

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

Web design
Possibly 3d graphics later
Writing

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

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.
