    Just wondering, yer 1st log on of the day?
    Me? When I get in to work I fire up winamp irc, trillian, goto fark.com, dilbert.com and check my email. Later I'll go here, maybe midday when my brain wakes up.

    We all have habits- what're yours?

    Log on. Fire up mIRC, pegasus mail, MSN messenger.

    Fire up Firebird and open (in this order); Boards, Vodafone email, boards email, and 2 internal web-based systems.

    Open every forum on boards that's had new posts overnight, review them, then spend the rest of the day refreshing the new posts list.

    :)

    I find that if you are spending some time online its best to go to your forum first. Then check e-mail and have a look through your faverates website, then before you log off have another look at your forum.

    boot up, open IE, type in username and password (of one of the directors, not mine;). anonymity is bliss) then check boards, mail2web (no external pop access here), the register, bbc website and a few random sites throughout the day. look for stuff to download (legitimate of course;)) and periodically check my email and boards whenever i get the chance throughout the day.

    Collage, lovely startup script open ie for my collage email, my personal account, putty (collage chat etc), and my h drive. I then have to open boards and the subject sites :( - script needs more work for the likes of msn etc.

    Work, open the 5million programs that I use for tech problems, msn, opera (email, boards, dl site to see what I can dl and use up the bandwidth to slow down working :p )
