Absolutely! And it probably will continue to do so until I find something new. This happened first with facebook and then with twitter. Who knows what will be next. . .
Fluther pretty much dominates my day and will continue to do so until baseball season begins. Then it will be fluther and baseball, probably in that order.
@PnL become a fan of threadless on facebook. then on thursdays, every hour starting at, uhm, 12noon CST, they pick a random fan to win gift certs, and often times, fans from the commenters as well. that’s how i won last week! w00p!
actually, last friday, they were tweeting gift cert codes for the community, and the faster you were, the bigger a chunk you got. they went up to $200! (follow them on twitter for that)
I’m on here & Askville both. They don’t DOMINATE my day, but it comes pretty close. I’m on these two & I get lots of emails, so I do spend a lot of time on here, there’s no doubt about that. TOO much, really.
It doesn’t dominate my day but it is certainly a very welcome companion for me at night. I work 6 pm to 6 am and it is nice to spend several hours on Fluther each evening/early morning and it is a very addicting website.
I’ve met so many good people here and I’m so relaxed and happy as a part of this community that I have nothing but great things to say about it. Fluther is terrific, hands down.
Fluther has the potential to totally dominate my days and nights and if it ever does, I’m ready for it. :o)
I find there are people here who can manage to make me laugh, and chances for me to be snarky. It’s relaxing, but doesn’t dominate my days. I do, however, lose track of time on it.
@jbfletcherfanwww.twitter.com it’s microblogging. sort of like if all you could have for a blog entry was your status line from facebook. what’s cool, though, is you can do so much more with it. For example, I can track packages (using tracking#) via Twitter. and there’s more (check out this wired article) kinda fun, and you can do it from your phone/iPhone as well.
It tends to, in waves. It became necessary to reorganize my Things-to-do list at work to make sure I focused on work for a significant part of the day.
Also, sometimes I get discouraged and leave the collective for hours at a time. There’s only so much ‘snarkiness’ one can take <or give> in a day, I guess.
I am not sure how relieved I am to see that I am not alone in my addiction. Maybe the right attitude is to think of this place as a sane asylum in a world that has definitely gone flat out bonkers.
