How do you "use" this site?

I'm just curious as to how most people use ay-ziggy-zoomba.com
Do you open it up in a browser first thing in the AM and then just keep it open all day?
Do you check back in 3 or 4 times a day?
At work? At home?
Do you sit in the main page of the message boards and hit refresh until you see one of the logos change showing there's a new message?
Do you just pop in once a day?
Thanks for the feedback!

It's the first site I visit every morning and the last one I check each night.
Don't leave it open, just pop in every hour or so (when I am at work,

) and see what's new. Evenings and weekends I stop by less frequently.

As an official Internet geek, I am compelled to hit the site multiple times throughout the day - always first thing in the morning at work and always before I leave work for the day.
I have the main forums page bookmarked and that's where I enter.

i check the site (almost) first thing in the morning at work, and then several times throughout the day. i always refresh the main forums page before i leave in order to make sure i've read everything.

Yes.
Well, except for the "once a day" thing. Then no.

When I took classes, I checked it first thing in the AM and betweenclasses.
Now that I'm student teaching, I check it when I get to school and as often as possible when the kids are doing independent work or if it's my planning period. It's open all of 5th period.

This is the first website I check every day when i get home. Too tired in the morning before school, and during school the computers won't let me get to it. Stupid Bess. I usually check in 3 or 4 times a night to see anything new.

I usually check it when there is any downtime at work or if I'm waiting for something to download or upload. Most IT guys know that there are really intense stretches of work followed by some inevitable downtime when everything is working. I usually spend most of my downtime either here, on a couple other message boards I troll, on ESPN.com, or working on any number of fantasy teams.
I usually don't hang out much here on weekends or weeknights -- only if I'm bored or there is a topic I'm particularly interested in. Anytime I'm just surfing my normal round of sites, I usually pop in and read new replies/topics.

When I get to work I check two different email addresses then here. I don't do much throughout the day so I check in often. Next week I'll be back at school with class for at least 7 hours on Mondays and 2-4 hours a day the rest of the week. Weekends and weeknights I'll check in if I get online.

I generally check the site a couple of times in the evenings after I get home from work, or throughout the day on weekends. I probably could check in while I'm at work, but so far I've managed to resist the temptation. I know once I start, my days of productivity are over.

First thing in the morning and last thing at night. Several times during the day depending what it going on.....
My Dad doesn't do the internet, so he calls me often and I have to read stuff to him...or print and fax it to him.
It's a family affair.....

At least once in the evening at home.
On weekends, once in the morning and once in the evening.

That's cool... glad your dad gets the dirt some way or another.

I use this site mostly for they purveyance of evil.
I usually forget to close out my window when I am done, so most of the time I just have the thing sitting open. I usually check it once in the morning and a couple of times at night, and maybe at work every now and a again, but only when there isn't a whole lot going on.
