How much time do you spend each they on computer and why? Are you computer addicted? Those who spend a lot of time what thing do you do on computer and what opinion have your relatives and friends about your computer addiction? I spend a lot of hours each day on computer, but only because I have nothing else to do. (holidays). In fact, I spend so much time that I don't know what else I can do on computer. Internet and computer games bacame borring and I already saw almost all good movies.

Well, even I am a computer addict, I spend almost all of my time on computers and my mother gets really frustrated by my addiction to computers. But 50% of the time I spend online is spent in chatting with friends.
Sometimes I cannot concentrate on my studies and guess what it is 12:32 AM here and I will be having my exams in like 7 hours and I haven't actually studied anything, I think I must spend sometime studying as I am not that good at Science II (Chemistry) and Marathi (Regional Language).

I use the computer a lot of the time in the day because there is no one really my age in my neighborhood to hang out with or anything. I intend on programming for a living anyway on the side of running a business. I think that I probably do spend too much time on the computer but I plan to change that. It isn't effecting my physical condition so I'm not too worried about it for the time being. Between school and homework I don't have time to do any extra curicular activities let alone transportation. I'll probably start to use it less once I find a new job.

My mom is all over me for computer time. I get 1 hour on weekdays and 1 and a half on weekends. My friend was on like 8 hours a day during the summer. It makes me mad sometimes.

I've been spending a lot more time doing homework and general off-my-computer activity since school started, but I've felt a little more revitalized since I stopped playing World of Warcraft (for a little while), so until I get that started up again, I'll have a good 7 hours of sleep every night. Wow!

I used to spend a lot of time on my computer between WOW, drawing, writing, making my site or...excessively polishing it, and reading a lot of random techy jargon from other sites. And chatting. I rarely deviated from that.

Ha, so i finally found how to call me.. Computer Addict.
I spend almost all day on PC, and i say almost cause i need to go to school... (lol, anyway I do PC working on school).. but what i do are things than will help me to run some kind of business in the future, like Graphic desing or programming, but i also play a lot of online videogames, but those helped me to learn English.. (yeah, im mexican, i talk spanish.. and what you are reading now is the english i learned thanks to chat and make northamerican friends on videogames).
My mother is always pissed off cause this... as many other said above.. but thats our passion!!!

I spend very much time in front of my computer, mostly because of work, I'm a programmer, or software developer, to call it a more popular name these days

I would spend about 8 hours a day, staring at a monitor, programming, then get home, spend about 2 hours away from the computer, while I have my lunch, maybe rest a bit, talk to my folks, and then, guess what... Back at the computer! Right

I also use my computer for entertainment purposes, watching movies, listening to music... I found myself asking me a question, what would I do, if I didn't have a computer... I couldn't think of a thing... That kind of worries me... Computers are very easy to get addicted to, because you can do everything with them, from work, over playing games, music, watching tv... Anything you can think of...

And then, there's the Internet That thing is more addictive than morpheine, or something Depending on the use, one can find him/her self overwhelmed by its contents... For me, the amount of information I can find on a particular subject is awesome... I can spend hours, and hours, just reading the info, browsing through pages, and pages of information, never getting enough... If used properly, one can get very smart using the Internet

But also, note this... If you spend too much time in front of a computer, following things WILL happen to you... Your eyesight will deteriorate... No matter if you're using TFT monitors, or the old CRT ones, your eyesight WILL deteriorate... Your physical readiness will deteriorate also, and your waist circumference WILL increase This I hace proven on my own example So, always, ALWAYS, find some time to work out, go out with your friends, work on you social life, outside of this virtual world of 1's and 0's, even though you might get wet from the rain, or freeze, if it's snowing... But nothing beats real, social gathering, with real people you can touch (just watch who you touch, and where, you might get slapped ), not even a computer...

i don't think these days you can say everyone who is on the computer is addicted to it. i know i use it alot but it is because i doing computer science at varsity and i do enjoy some games now and then but i don't play them for 20 hours a day or anything crazy like that.

I know that most of the time i'm just making use of the computer because it is easier to use than another method. I watch alot of programs on the computer because have have them in avi format and i don't have cables to take the video and audio to my tv !! so i just waatch it on the computer.

I also use it to listen to music as i don't have a mp3 player so i just use ther computer and i will also use it alot to cut cd weather it be data for other people or music for my car or something.

If you are going to say that someone that is on the computer alot is addicted to it then you will have to say that everyone is addicted to tv as most people watch way more tv than anything else, so does that mean they are addicted to tv, the main reason people are on computers so much nowdays is because you can do everything you want on the computer you can even watch tv if you want !!

I spend almost all of my time at the computer (some of it should be spent doing more important things like homework). I am a computer addict; I can't really focus my thoughts on many things other than computers (OK, fine, I can think about buses too). It annoys me, because in the summer when I'm in camp, there are no computers (well, the ones in the office don't count), and the whole time I'm like, "I need a computer!" Practically my whole day surrounds the almighty computer.
