Anyone spending more time than they would like sifting through the forums? Why?

No. I have more self control than that.

It's the B&H website that gives me trouble. :oops:

I haven't taken any shots since I discovered this forum. In fact, can't remember where my camera is.

Actually, can't remember my name either.

:D

Maybe we should start a 12 step group for addicted members and perhaps another group for our spouses. We could call the second group Canonnon.

unfortunatly it's my work that keeps me very busy at the moment!

i didn't even had the time to go out and shoot some pictures the last month!

the forum takes up about 1 hour a day, so that's not too much is it?

Yup, I waste far to much time between here and the forums over at photo.net. Ah well. Tis fun for the most part.

I think I started hogging time on this site soon as I put up a for sale ad, and always checking and checking and checking.... lol well you get the idea.

I'm really upset at the fact the my company actually expected me to work this week, and about 60 hours to boot. That really cramped my post count since Monday. I was lucky to get 10-20 minutes a day when at work, and only an hour or two at home.

I'm "online" here almost all waking hours, but that's not really true. My job allows me to spend a lot of time here, 2 minutes at a time, fairly constantly. When I'm home I spend a lot of time doing other things on the PC and check back every 15-30 minutes. If I watched TV that would probably be a lot less, but I can't stand the thing.

If I totaled the time I'd be surprised if I actually spent more than 3 hours a day here, probably more like 2.

About the only time I'm offline is when sleeping or shooting. With any luck I won't be online for about 20 hours tomorrow.

Yes - but It has become a very valuable resource for me. Lot's of good advice/solutions. Do not like the threads that go Nikon sucks - not one Nikon has ever taken a good pic.... No Canon sucks....But I can be guilty of that sometimes.

Ive got to go now and look at more threads.....

I have been busy being sick so I spent a little more time. I also want to start a fitness program for my self and loose 25 pounds before summer, but I think I will push it to spring since it is snowing outside.

I am a newbie and addicted already. How do I justify myself? What excuses do I use? "I am learning a lot about photography" and "It's more productive than watching television".

Those are two pretty good reasons, not excuses.
