@ Speel,

You know, I was *JUST* about to come here and do just that, but seeing who the antagonist is, I shall refrain......

I could have put in the option to antagonize folk, but there wasn't enough choices, and anyway I too chose to refrain... :)

Online Shopping (4)
It depends. Books is on and off whether I buy online or from a store. Second hand video games and amiga stuff is online of course.

Online Gaming (2)
A few games of Wesnoth is about it.

Online Storage (1)
I have a few files backed up to my ubuntuone account but thats about it

Downloading Software (10)
Running linux so its 100% online for everything.

Downloading Music (8)
Lots of stuff to be had, legally too. The internet is really the liberator, letting kids get their music out.

Downloading Films (1)
Barely watch any movies anymore

Running A Business (0)
Nah

Personal Finance (eg:Paying Bills, Banking etc...) (0)
Nope

Forums / Chat (7)
Trying to waste less time on this, and just limit myself to amiga.org, but I do use instant messaging a lot to keep in touch with friends all over the world.

Finding Information (10)
This is the biggest one for most, I imagine

Other... (something I haven't covered here !!!)
web comics and porn. Im not ashamed :)

Oh yeah?!?
