So, most of us sit in front of a computer with the Information Superhighway at our fingertips most of the time. Aside from posting on Archinect and CAD, what else are people doing while waiting for things to render or hatch or print? In our office IM'ing each other or other friends in other offices is fairly common. Just wondering about everyone else.
2 office email accounts, office document management server, AutoCAD, Architect (obviously), office messanger, personal email, USA Today, stock ticker, various blogs, electronic blackboard (for classes), time sheet, and the daily menu from the cafeteria.

I can waste entirely too much time in Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is the black hole of wasted time...
Reminds me, I need to get my negotiation tactics for my review
