This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Intel.
Let’s face it, life is busy. We, or maybe I should say “I” feel like I am always running around with my family just hoping to get everything I need to get done every single day. As a mom of 2 busy little boys, a wife, a recipe developer, website author and new cookbook writer, it is so very important for me to multi-task and use wise time management otherwise I am in big trouble.
I find it helpful to write down my responsibilities each week on paper so I can see them along with having family meetings so we are all on the same page then try to multi-task every chance I get.
When I come across things that make my life easier….and faster I am all ears.
I was selected by BlogHer and Intel to review a new computer powered by the Intel® Core™ i5 processor with Turbo Boost Technology that allows me to get more done in less time. Talk about excitement when I heard those words! The laptop is beautiful. I quickly opened the box and set it up all by myself. For someone who knows the bare minimum about running computers, I must say I was relieved how easy it was to get started.
An Intel® wireless display (akaWiDi) adaptor was also sent that allows me to use my HDTV a monitor. How cool is that? I can work on my blog or type recipes on the big screen in my living room. I can NOT wait to get playing on this new computer. Stay tuned to hear more about my experience!

I’m about 80% work, 20% play. At least as far as computer usage is concerned 🙂
I spend most of my time surfing the net, catching up on Facebook, or reading food blogs and making myself hungry.
I spend most of my time working.
Play, blog, surf the internet, keep in touch with friends and family.
I find myself researching recipes and entering Pampered Chef information..
Nice new computer! I keep in touch with family and friends on Facebook and email, work(my home business & my Husbands), look up recipes and information, and organize pictures.
blogs and facebook waste my day away 🙂
I probably spend most of my time surfing, but also editing!
Work, email, Skype with family; paying bills; you name it, my computer is doing it.
Most of my screen time is spent reading blogs and checking email.
Most of my time online is spent working, and my current laptop is just not cutting it. Crossing my fingers…
I love to check out blogs (especially food blogs) and go on Facebook
I spend most of my time working on the computer or surfing the web.
I spend about 75% playing and 25% working on my computer. I really am at a point where I need to have a more efficient/faster system and look forward to more on your review.
For work mostly….
I spend about 80% Facebooking and 20% Blogging.
What do spend most of your time doing on your computer? Work, play, surf the internet?
I would say 70% work, and 30% play!
Cheers!
Hey PP!
Thanks so much for sponsoring such a fantastic giveaway!
I spend most of my online time reading blogs. I’m a blog-o-holic!
Second biggest time usage: online window shopping. I have a huuuge wish list!
I spend TOO MUCH time checking blogs. They suck me in!!
Email, digital scrapbooking, Brownies, social networking…. you name it, its done on my computer~
Reading blogs 🙂 And working. And blogging. And looking at recipes.
I spend most of my time working!!! I run an online boutique so I’m always checking emails, responding to customers and keeping my store fresh and current 🙂
But I do love to shop online as well….soooo many good deals out there! 🙂
Mostly personal. Blogs, recipe collecting, email, etc.
I spend way too much reading blogs – oh well.
Blogging, working and reading other blogs. 😉

I spend most of my time either doing my school work ( I am going to school online) or checking on my kids school grades, homework etc. But of course, while doing those things I am also on Facebook checking out what everyone is up too
So, I retweeted your tweet about this and so apparently I can’t link directly to my tweet now. Anywho, here’s your link and you’ll see that it’s been retweeted by @yogagirl. That’s me. 🙂

At home, I spend most of my time on the internet (blog and email) but at work it’s about 50/50 (:
I mostly work on my computer, but throw in some facebook and blog reading occassionally. And recipe-searching!
It’s about 50/50. Half work, half play!
I spend most of my time on the computer either reading blog, I love all the unique recipes that come out of them!
Most of my time is spent designing digital cards, candy wrappers, etc. that I sell at craft fairs. I follow a few blogs but not that many. I limit my time with the blogs because they can become an obsession and rob you with time from family and other important tings. I do follow Picky Palate every day tho.
