So here I am, 11pm on a Friday night, typing away on the odd thread and watching West Wing in the corner (about a 15cm x 10cm screen). Yes, I can follow the story and post at the same time (I am up to the part where Sam is about to leave and run for office in California - I think). This leads me to wonder what you are most likely to do whilst posting on Giantbomb.
To be honest, I am more likely to be looking around at other gaming sites (not posting, just reading) or game import sites (looking for a bargain), but video comes second. What about you?
Do you multi-task? What do you do most whilst posting on Giantbomb?
None of the above. I'm often working while browsing, I always have a tab running in my studio, it very rarely detracts me from my work though.
I don't think that it really counts as multi-tasking but i'll be looking at GB while i'm telling myself i'm doing homework. This generally means i have a word document minimised at the bottom of my screen which i'll open pack up when someone comes into the room.
None of the above/Other
While also reading stuff and posting on Giantbomb.com I also: Listen to music, catch the news on TV.
At work: Surfing Giantbomb and playing video games
Various things right now I have watching Dr.No. Right now Bond and Honey Ryder are admiring No's aquarium right before he makes his entrance for the movie. Sometimes I read while watching/listening to videos or podcast's. Last night I was reading My Word is My Bond the Roger Moore autobiography. Other nights could be other sites or just this one. Who knows.
" None of the above. I'm often working while browsing, I always have a tab running in my studio, it very rarely detracts me from my work though. "This right here for me, too. I leave a GB window open while I do other things. Every so often I refresh to see what's changed on the "newest topics" page.
Not many choices here. Usually I'm on here when I'm downloading something from steam or waiting for mods to be installed. Or watching TV over my right shoulder. Or music is playing in the background.
D for me!
I usually check out Youtube, Facebook, and play the 360 simultaneously whilst on Giantbomb. No wonder i use so much bandwidth a month...
" @oldschool: You forgot music :( You know that I would go Celebrate for music and you forgot it :( I am saddened. "How much smarter are we AFTER the fact :-)
I had my chance and I blew it - so many other options I didn't really think about. Music is one I do as well, but I was going for the one that is most utilised. I certainly don't post while at work - I tend to get this message that says I can't. In fact, just the words "computer game" is blocked.
I think with hindsight, I could have added about 10-20 other options.
Well usually i just get home and check the site, then i start doing my homework and AFK for pretty much the rest of the day until i have finished it.
