Holy smoke. That was a great breakdown of your time.
But what it made me realise was how little I consume of ANYTHING now.
No telly, and I never go to the movies.
And I realised that not only is our only TV a 14 inch Sony from the
mid 90s (great picture quality though), but our DVD and VCR have
Hi all,
So currently, using your list, my time looks like this:
TV 3%
Movies 0%
games 0%
virtual worlds 2%
web reading 55%(Facebook 5% RSS feeds 35% twitter 10% other 5%)
videoblogs 40%( editing 20% learning (new softs) 20%)
books 0%
3TV here, one home cinema, one account sattelite programs
I watch TV. I go to the movies. I watch video online. I watch video art in
galleries. I only like a small percentage of the actual work that ends up on
each, but what's that law again that says only a tiny percentage of anything
will be worthwhile? But the formats and venues... great. More more
I still enjoy free HD over the air, but I don't pay
for satelite or cable.

It's worth noting that, despite the fact that I watch a lot of television,
I'm generally not focusing on it. Between my job, my doctorate,
Greentime, Freetime (still technically active), the ever-impending-event
(was my wedding, now it's Dragon*Con), gym, garden, baking and brewing,
etc, etc, I
I had a TV/VCR combo which died in March after about seven years.
Eventually I will replace it with a HD set, but I'm not in any hurry (they
get better and cheaper).
I can get most of what I want to watch on DVD or online.
I'm also subscribing to more video now that I have an iPhone.

Yeah,
I never watch live TV any more. Or any TV, I guess.
Interesting timing of the question - we just finally got round to
cancelling our satellite TV, and last night - for the first time in a
long time - I saw a news bulletin and a police drama on TV and
couldn't believe it. They looked
I have one TV, a 34 inch Sony circa 1998.
I do not subscribe to any television networks and only use netflix and the
internet for video for the last 18 months.
I miss HBO (though i can get backlogged seasons on netflix) and I miss
Baseball (Mets fan!).

They looked so weird. It was like when you go
to another country and you turn on the TV and everything looks a bit
ugly and unfamiliar.
So true. I am in awe when I am watching TV at family/friends/bars now. It
is such a strange beast.

We have 3 TV's in our house, cable subscription and 1 DVR.
I watch only about 2 - 3 hours of TV a week depending on what shows
are running - most of them are things on HBO. I have a Netflix
subscription and probably watch 1 - 2 movies a week. Since I got a Wii
for my birthday I've probably added
15 matches
