 Post subject: Do you spend more time watching TV or being Online?
PostPosted: Tue Aug 05, 2003 5:18 am 
A new study has come out, saying that demographics, especially among teens, has switched from TV viewing to more internet usage:<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.internetnews.com/IAR/article.php/2240141">www.internetnews.com/IAR/...hp/2240141</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>"According to Harris, youths spend 16.7 hours online in the average week, against 13.6 hours watching TV and 12 hours listening to the radio. The phone occupied 7.7 hours. Unsurprisingly, books and magazines not related to school came in dead last at 6 hours."<br><br>Whaahahahaha. Books and magazines were last? I'm shocked. <br><br>Anyway, I'm curious. Do you spend more time in front of the TV or the computer? Do you watch TV while on the computer? And on a side note, what ever happened to going outside? Do you really spend that much/little time doing those activities as described in the article and in the above quote? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>ZL <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.buncha-network.com/zl/R3K.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.buncha-network.com/zl/ZLstrat.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br>Empires wax and wane; states cleave asunder and coalesce. <br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"Swift as the wind, silent as the forest, fierce as the fire, steady as the mountain."</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> A banner used by the Takeda clan of Kai (Sengoku Jidai era). </p><i></i>

I spend more time Online. However, I read and go outside (for athletic thingys) even more, and I usually read stories when Im online. <p> <br>"I'm the greatest, and I can't possibly be beat!- Cassius Clay aka Muhammed Ali<br><br><br>"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"- Robert Oppenheimer<br> </p><i></i>

I'd say... more time online for me. Sometimes it's the other way around. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://live.quizilla.com/user_images/A/Anamya/1044491224_-aiFangirl.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br>Kiyone Tenchi Survivor 4<br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://pub92.ezboard.com/bv86sanimeandgamerscorner" target="top">Videl86's Anime and Gamer's Corner</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

OK, ZL, the youths they are talking about is probably not you and me. But I'll put my two cents in any way.<br><br>I listent to the radio when ever I'm in the car. That's 50 minutes a day in the trip to and from work. 50*5= 250/60= 4.16 hours a week.<br><br>I also listen the radio at work. That's about 40 hours a week. 40+4= 44 hours a week.<br><br>I watch TV at lunch, that's five hours a week. I watch 'toons at night from 12 to 1:30, 1.5*5= 7.5+5=12.5 hours a week.<br><br>So, the radio wins. That doesn't include the crap I'm forced to listen to at the gym or travel time to and from the gym.<br><br>I read on the camode. Usually just the comics. That's about all the reading I do.<br><br>The computer? Well a half hour before bed, and a half hour when I wake up. Seven hours a week. <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.suncitystreetscene.net/forum/html/emoticons/muscles.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">"Hashiriya are lonely drivers so, we do not need girlfriends."</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
