Does everyone keep up with reading the message board as soon as it is posted? I just finished reading May 29 message board I read everything from top to bottom. I'm really behind. What do you guys do? It is really an enjoyable site.

I don't read everything...I usually skip over the classifieds because I have no money, :). There are so many new people that I can't possibly look at everyone so I don't. I just usually look at the pictures and drool over them and if I see a question that I may be able to answer or something that I wanted to know also. I also spend an inordinate amount of time reading the posts--off and one between quilting -- my poor family!

I check in once a day usually, more on weekends. Only problem is, it cuts into quilting and reading time. This site is so good, but addictive! :D

That is usually how I read it. Sometimes I read in the morning and again before I go to bed at night.

All day long I keep up with my watched posts only because I carry around an Ipod with WiFi when I am at home. I can look and clean house, do laundry, feed everybody at the same time. I spend about an hour in the evenings lurking and posting on new topics, after everyone has gone to bed. I was wondering too as to how others keep up with it all.

There is no way to read all the messages and look at all the pictures. You have to pick and choose, unless you have hours and hours and hours and don't really want to quilt a whole lot.
There is way too much going on here to stay involved in all of it!!!!

I try to check in 2 or 3 times a day. I always start with recent topics, then if I have time, I move over into pictures. I'm excited we have so many new members, but I can't seem to keep up with welcomes...I know I'm bad. I am glad to see everyone joining. I find the way new topic switches to new posts is very helpful. That way I at least know if I've already read that topic. If it's one I'm interested in, I can check back in. I'm not getting to sew much lately, so this keeps me connected to others who are.
