    Varies daily. Taking a couple of college courses online. Boards to stay in touch with Ireland, as with IM and occasionally email. Have been on Google scholar beta a lot writing a paper for university. Don't read newspapers, so I get my news from the web too.

    Well you see the internet was made in the 70's and since I'm about 18 and then dial-up didn't really hit Ireland until 2003(or my house anyway) I would say about 14.285714% Give or take. ;)

    It's been changing a lot lately. Used to play some games but kinda gotten bored of that recently.

    These days i do a lot of things at once really.
    Poker, boards, online chess (yes belittle me if you want :p ), downloading torrents, studying for exams, researching things in work etc etc.

    Really no idea of %'s.
