KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted July 1, 2012 .i use internet daily for 3-5 hours in which 2 hours are just waste of time by chatting and other unproductive sites. what to do? Hmmm.... So 1-3 hours a day, you are spending on internet is useful.... There is nothing to worry, imho... Even if we work in office, we will be wasting the 50% of time doing unproductive or doing work with less concentration... Just be careful that it doesn't affect your personal life or career... That will be enough, imho... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karthik R 246 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 nowadays, i use to be in front of computer or laptop for 17-18 hours a day.. (this doesn't count my internet usage on mobile devices).. Alok do you feel limited because there is only 24 hours in a day and out of curiosity, are you sporting glasses now? I spend on a average 6-7 hours actively online in a day. Guess I'm suffering from lil' addiction too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me_saket 73 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 I got automomatic deaddicted from internet. bcoz last year my one and only laptop got lost, so i decided not to buy new one. then reassemble desktop of my friend and got it connected to lcd screen of tv. this reduces my surfing time, bcoz desktop processor was pentium 3 and other family member were not alllowing me to use pc,bcoz they want to see their favourite tv program on lcd tv. then brought first android phone, which was having good variety of application, which was really needed by me including tapatalk, which i got from rimweb. so now surfing internet, only when no application is available or when phone's browser doesnt support opening of full web page. otherwise no need of pc or laptop or desktop.
