Stop! Web Time!

EDIT: The Web is _anything in a browser_. If it's not in a browser then it's not the web. If you use a chat client that's browser-based, then that counts. If you use one that's a program, then it doesn't.

[Poll #1657175]

The reason I'm curious is Google's pushing of the Chrome laptops - which are designed to be web only. I know that a lot of my time is spent on the web nowadays, but I'm curious as to what percentage most people spend on it.

(Non-web usages of the computer are either playing non-web games (Dragon Age and Super Meat Boy this week) and watching videos - although that's mostly on Julie's PC, as it's in the bedroom.)

The second question is because there was a big battle over MS Office versus OpenOffice, and I realised that I don't really use Office at home since I stopped sending letters. I still have it (the joy of a brother who works for Microsoft), but I can't see me using it.

I am assuming you will accept vim as a "word processor" since I use it for everything most people would use Word or its ilk for.

If you're using it to write letters, it counts :->

I use notepad every day for taking notes and storing emails and stuff, both at work and personal time. I didn't count that under "word processors". In my personal time, I only use the fancier word processors if I want to print something out in a nice format. There are other editors I also use, depending on what I need to do (column formatting, macros, etc). I'm similar to a couple of other people, that even when I'm using non-web programs, I generally have a bunch of web pages open at the same time, and switch between them.
