Back at Usenet's height, I checked it numerous times per day, probably along the number of times people check Facebook today. It was really the only way to keep up with discussions. As Usenet usage dwindled, I restricted myself to checking twice a day - before and after work - so I would actually find something worthwhile to read. These days I'm down to once a day - it's part of my morning ritual: wake up, brush teeth, drink coffee, check usenet, go to work. But I still make it a point to check at least once every day. But given the declining number of comments in this newsgroup, I figure that most aren't that regular. So how often do you check Usenet these days? Just curious.
