Reading: Facebook's something I dip into on my phone when bored on a bus. Twitter gets scanned once a day for about 5 minutes. LJ is the only site I really keep up with.
Writing: I bookmark things on Delicious that then feed back into LJ as a daily post, and onto Twitter on a half-hourly basis. I update Facebook intermittently, and that also feeds onto Twitter on a half-hourly basis.
Livejournal used to be my main read, but it's very quiet compared to other networks. Still, I check it a couple of times a day. Ditto Facebook, which I've found most of my friends are on.
Twitter gets checked very regularly, and is how I get a lot of my tech jobs. LinkedIn gets checked daily as well for similar reasons (but I forgot to mention it in the poll). Hacker News is becoming more of an active site for me as well, and lately I've been thinking it's a more useful information source for me than anything else I use.
Writing:
I'll probably post 6 or 8 messages to Twitter in a day, and maybe the same number of replies. Facebook will get a status update every couple of days. I feel sort of dirty touching it more than that.
I posted a bunch of messages to LinkedIn yesterday, and discovered it was a pretty good way of drawing in potential business. I'm going to try and do that more.
My LJ has become my diary - it's very nearly ten years old - so I try and write something on it at least once a week. I'll occasionally go for weeks without writing something substantial though.
And I love taking photos and uploading them to Flickr, but haven't really had much inspiration lately. It's hard to find anything as visually interesting as anything in my road trip album from this Christmas; it's all a bit grey and drab. I'll probably take more as we get closer to summer.
Livejournal is no longer my main blog so I don't update anywhere near as much as I used to. Other blog gets a "mention in the comments" tick, I don't see that it is any less an example of social networking than LJ. Oh, and I also regularly post to mailing lists.
I just do LJ and FB pretty much. I answered that I've read both Twitter and MySpace this week, but you just happened to post this poll within a week of my rare visits to those sites.
I post on Twitter but I don't read it as the posts on it all seem dull as dishwasher. However, posting links there seems to get traffic, so whatever. Clearly some people like it.
Delicious is handy for linkblogging. I avoid editorializing on it too much as it's public.
Facebook is great for staying aware of your friends and acquaintances, seeing cool personal photos, and sharing opinions and brief documentation of your life experience. I find that there's a premium on cleverness and wit in its status updates as compared to Twitter. It also allows for much more raunchiness, as your posts are not there for all the world to see.
LiveJournal is great for longer posts. I tend to spend the most time of the bunch reading and lurking on it.
The other being Dreamwidth which I now use almost exclusively rather than LJ. I still read LJ for those people who haven't migrated. I only ever post to LJ when there's something specific I want certain LJ people to read about.
