Time Spent Logged into Site

i know my number would be high as hell.... i'm logged in 8 hours a day monday through friday

 

i was under the impression that once i broke 2000 posts i was gonna start getting monthly checks but those haven't started coming yet. oh well, iguess i gotta keep "working"

 

Dude, I've abandoned my kids for this place.

child: "Daddy will you play with me now?"

me: "Give me a couple minutes"

Meanwhile, 2 hours later.........

 

My wife says the same thing... It even came up at dinner on Thanksgiving Day. Mind you - I do not spend time on here when she is home with me. I would rather play with my wife. She is working today, so guess where I am.

 

i log in a few different times an afternoon and night, mostly after work and i log in alot of different times on the weekend!!

 

Yeah me too, I put on I-tunes and the next thing I know I should be in bed or at work, oops !

 

hmmmm i have been a good girl it's been awhile since i logged in last and just looking at this site wow i am so far behind can't catch up to mark and master.... wow

 

god.... I'd hate to see my number.... I never actually log out. Even if I have to close Flock or reboot, when the tabs re-open I'm magically still logged in... I can't remember the last time I actually had to click the log in button.....

 

my truck is in the shop... i'm on the site double time now.

 

I think I clicked the login button once back in September. Do the rest of you do it more often?

 

I stay logged on at the house and at work.

 

I don't know that there'd be any way to do that.

Web pages are stateless. They're not like regular desktop applications. As soon as you get the page in your browser, the web server closes the connection. If it held onto the connection, it would bog down quickly as it sought to keep connections open for everyone that visited the site.

It only knows who you are when it reads the cookie on your computer the next time you hit a page on Tacomaworld. Any website that knows who you are after you've closed the browser and then revisited the site is using cookies.

Banks handle page visits with session variables on their servers that expire in 20 minutes or so (so you don't accidently leave your bank account open to whoever has access to your computer). The downside of sessions is you'd have to log in every time you closed your browser or the session expired. So if you used sessions, it could work but it would require you to log in each time you came to the site. It also wouldn't expire if you went to another site so it wouldn't be guaranteed that you were on the site constantly, only that you checked back in before the session expired.

You could have it record page hits. That would show how many times you actively hit the site.

 

hmmmm....guess I'd have to stop using TabMix Plus to reload the page every 15 seconds then....
