What's the longest session you've had on Talkbass?

Approximately, what is the longest time you have spent on Talkbass.

I'm on Vacation this week and it's been raining most of the day. I've pretty much been here all day. Had my coffee and logged in about 9:00-9:30. Don't get me wrong. I still till took a shower, got dressed, and did a few things around the house, but could have (should have) done other things. I'll bet I got a good 10-11 hours of actual TB time in. My @ss is numb.

I dunno. Definitely a few hours. Its always open in my browser even if I'm not online.

I've been sick and surfed TB all day. Or its been 2am and I can't sleep and I'll surf TB all day till dawn. Or I'll be at work and surf TB all day.

See a recurring pattern here?

Hard to tell, for me. When I'm on tb, I'm almost always simultaneously on facebook, youtube, some random other sites that I got linked to from facebook or tb, and playing my bass at the same time. And I tend to go away and do something else every 10-15 minutes. Wow, just laying that all out, I realize how painfully short my attention span is

Nice Simpsons reference Mr. Wilson.

I often leave TB open in my browser for hours at a time, especially while at work. My job is web based and I often have time to kill while files upload/update etc so I check my favorite sites often while things are processing in the background.

Oh, just TalkBass alone? No more than a 90-minutes stretch.. after that the sameness of the 100's of threads makes me very bored with it indeed. But I can't go more than 2 days without logging in. Its a real drag when I'm in asia and can't get online every day.

About the same amount of time, but that's while I'm at work. At home I usually only get about 10-30 minutes on the computer before I'm called to do something or talk to people.

TB's always open in Safari but i'm usually on facebook, youtube etc at the same time like Disraeli Gears.
Most of my time these days is spent watching surf movies, drawing, having a smoke and listening to music or reading up on photography/film, but my macbook is always on and somewhere nearby.
I'll probably spend 15-20 mins on TB then do other things, come back and check it later etc.
