I thought it might be an interesting idea to gather people's opinions on various matters throughout the year, yes? I'll start with fairly general questions, but we can be topical should certain events arise, eg. political. I'm posting this in Off-Topic because it will not do to have these turn into weekly spamfests, partly for my own sake. ;)

So discuss your choice with your fellow members, and PM me if you have any good ideas for future polls, since I'm bound to run out of them soon.

Somewhere around 18+ hours for me, give or take a few hours. Most of the time is spent on here, some on School work. The rest is spent occasionally in MS paint drawing stuff (usually sprite related stuff), and every day I spend a little time tweaking the AW site and figureing out how to get testing programs (to test the sites PHP) to work.

On the order of 20 for me. About 14 of those are at home. The rest are at school working on my fanfic, and occasionally school assignments.

14-16 for me, roughly two or so hours each day. During the weekdays, I don't spend that much time online (just to check my e-mail, these forums, chat with friends, etc.), but on the weekends, I tend to relax a bit more. A bit of StepMania, downloading music off of LimeWire, watching anime (recently, Bleach and Naruto: Shippuden), and that adds substantially to my time online.

I'd say 18+ hours a week.
If I'm not at school or out riding, I'm usually on the compyuda.

What was the title for the first episode of Naruto: Shippuden? I just want to know if it's started where I am yet.

I like a lot of single songs too... Bands I need to look at: Plastic Constellations Cauterize Patent Pending And a bunch of local bands that you'll probably never hear of. Pandora rocks. I'm running out of things to say here. Perhaps I like duct tape? Yeah. This likely won't be touched for another year when my tastes have completely changed.

Ehhh...10ish. I spend an hour and a half on on weekdays, including school, and about 3 hours on the weekends. It varies, though.

Between school and home, I would say between 10 and 12 hours a week. I barely ever use it on weekends, but I do use about two hours on weekdays.

Actually, now that I think about it, I spend about 10-12 hours too. I wish I could delete my old vote and vote again... But then, who even cares?

The good thing about this is, you'll have an all new question next week! So you won't have to worry about it too long.

Take a nice bath. Or use the computer more this week so you actually use 12-14 hours. Your choice.

Hmm... Interesting choices I've got there. But if I made myself use the comp more then this wouldn't be a normal week, would it? And it has to be a normal week, as the poll states.

I'm off for a nice bath or something...

So far, it looks like people are WAY too attached to technology. But then again, I'm in no place to accuse. :(
