Time Not Spent Online...

How often should you tweet? Every few minutes? Every few days? Or maybe you tweet so infrequent that you forget that you have a Twitter account.

Being an EMAC major I feel that I should spend 22 ½ hours of the day online. Sadly, my number is far from that and this week I had a startling realization. I don’t spend enough time online or even tweeting. When I realized this I wasn’t sure if this was a good thing or not. I don’t even like saying it out loud. It’s a bad thing because I should be staying right on top of what is going on in the social media world. But it can be good because I’m not always in front of my screen or on my phone (even if it looks like it). And when I do get online, I check the usual email, message board, social/news websites just so I can try and keep up.

But as far as Twitter goes when I first signed up I kept forgetting that I had a Twitter account. And when I did remember I would check in and at least try to tweet some random fact. Now I actually check Twitter daily; be it from my phone or computer. I’m mainly looking to see what do certain news organizations or social sites have to say about different topics.

My main questions are: Is there a certain amount of time one should spend on the internet? I’m not looking for a specific number but more in the ballpark of (you fill in the blank). And how frequent should one tweet?

Maybe I should be the guy in this video....
