    When am online, first and foremost I check my emails and Social Media accounts to reply to messages of greetings, encouragement or to take advantage of oppotunities that each day presents.

    I usually check my Facebook as well. After that, I go to Reddit and keep procrastinating for a while. I'd probably go to Instagram as well if I'm in the mood.

    Usually I check all forums. I am the administrator on some forums. I have to help other members and delete spammy posts.

    The next thing is Facebook. I would check my messages and notifications. Sometimes I just chat with my friends and checking new photos on 9GAG.

    I usually go to facebook when I first sign on. I like to see what's posted and maybe share some of my favorite post. It's a force of habit I guess Then I like to check my mail and other sites I'm one. I also sign onto skype to see if my one friend that I talk to is on there. We talk on it every day. That's another habit.

    Whenever I'm on the computer I mostly check my email to see what's new. Sometimes there are notifications about new surveys and messages from my teachers.

    I don't usually go on social media a lot, but I often check if I have any missed messages while I was offline.

    The majority of the time I'm online, I watch Netflix movies and YouTube videos.

    I usually start by checking my Facebook account to see what is trending globally or amongst friends. Also, I check it for studying and businesses matters, in which my colleagues and I discuss. Additionally, Facebook provides me with funny articles and videos since I am following several sarcasm pages, which help me to start my day with a good mood.

    The first thing I do is study for a little while. After doing so, I try to finish my homework. I spend hours a day researching for "proper" material to substantiate my homework.

    When I'm done with my studies and homework, I relax for a little while. I search the net for stuff I'm interested in or chat with my friends on Facebook. I also enjoy posting on forums and interacting with people. It's very refreshing and fun. :)

    At the end of the day, I always check my e-mails. I usually have quite a ton by that time and spend 30 minutes or so, replying to people or removing spam.

    The first thing I do when I open Mozilla is to check my e-mails. Usually, I read and delete. After that I go to local news, movie news then to watch8now.so site. I check for the latest episodes of TV Series(e.g., Castle, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D etc.). Finally I download those episodes i haven't seen, if any.

    But, if I find anything intriguing in my mails, I jump to research. I don't know why i do that but, till I find answers I don't stop researching. Sometimes, it takes few minutes and sometimes I spend all the time researching.

    The very first thing I do when I log on in the morning is check my PayPal and then my bank account. I'm always cashing out somewhere and I want to stay on top of things. If a payment is due and I don't receive it- SUPPORT!
    After that it's check my class (studying for my Masters) and then begin work- if there's nothing more to do in the class.

    I have a pretty busy online and offline life. Much are the chances where I get really important emails from my online and offline projects. It gives me a win-lose situation. Thus, I check my email first.

    Then I check for messages in Facebook. Facebook's news feed stinks like anything! So I don't like to spend much time there.

    Then I like to head over to Quora to ask and answer questions. It Is also known as the Facebook for intellectuals. I find all those posts pretty interesting.

    There are much more things that I do online. I'll not waste your time here discussing all of that!

    I'll make a thread on, some interesting things on the Web.

    Since I work as a freelancer, I always start online with my email accounts. I use incoming mail to help prioritize my day and direct the focus of my concentration on high priority issues first. I actually go into my email account every two hours to keep up with any fires that may present themselves through email. Once I've managed my email box, I move to Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and UTube for social media management profiles that I manage.

    I firstly open my email to check my job opportunities and to keep in touch with my professional contacts. Secondly, I check my Facebook account to post things in groups about my phone (Lumia 830), to share fun videos with my friends and to know news about my favorite soccer team (Corinthians). Thirdly, I visit websites about news to understand more about the political situation, economy and Technology.
    Afterwards, I play

    When I get up, I always check my email and then login on my facebook. While facebook is open on other window, I surf for some news around the world and about my country. Then I close my pc and go to study.

    The first and foremost thing I do as soon as I go online is to check for any new mails and after that I go to my website and inquire for any new update on posts. As far as I can see all the people check their mail first and that's the key role for being online. If you used the internet and didn't checked your mails first on that day then surely you missed the opportunity to be punctual towards your life.:cool:
    Yeah! Absolutely I also do not like to send and view mails from my smartphone.

    Most of the time the first thing I do when I get online is check Facebook. I like to scroll through my news feed to see what people are posting. I also participate in several Facebook groups. Facebook has groups for just about everything. I participate in groups for couponers, working from home, recipes, etc.

    The first thing I do when I am online is to login to my Gmail account and check if there is any important mail that I need to respond, forward or save ( for future use). I also check out articles and other interesting contents I am subscribed on, and after that, I start doing my activities for the day.

    I am not much of a Facebook guy and I check it only when I am little free or when I am relaxing.

    The first thing I do when I am online is research! This may very well be a broad answer but it is true. I research anything that comes to mind or something that has been bugging me the whole day. I enjoy researching because it enlightens me and gives me insight into particular topics that interest me, essentially making me a better and knowledgeable citizen of society!
