I have a 24" monitor at my desk and am often watching movie/tv/etc. while doing other stuff, if the other stuff is sufficiently mindless.

Porn, I usually only watch if other people can't easily see over my shoulder, which is tricky because my monitors face the door. I can alt-tab fast, but not always that fast.

When I was last working, I got in trouble for looking at google news and livejournal. There is no way I would risk it.

Although everyone else in the office was addicted to myspace.

You forgot about "my machine has no sound".

I can watch porn at work if I'm careful about who sees. Because our paper has an escort section and the excuse of "research" the admins don't monitor our traffic.
Of course, there isn't much of a reason to watch porn at work because I'm not about to whip it out and rub one down at my desk.

much like [livejournal.com profile] langston, the nature of my paper means that viewing porn and porn-like materials is common, especially when testing clients' links from ads on the site. even outside of a professional context, no one here cares. the general manager hadn't heard of goatse, so i somewhat hesitantly sent him the link, wondering if i might be overestimating the relaxed atmosphere of the office. he loved it.. a little too much actually. he's started sending me disgusting photos he finds online, apparently thinking i'm into it. really i just wanted him to be in on goatse jokes.

If there were sound capability on my work computer I would, but there isn't, so there's little point.

how can you people live in 2006 with computers that have no sound capability?

I have sound at work, but most of the time I have to dig out my headphones if i want to watch a video. I might do it if its short and worksafe, and its slow or later in the day when less people are about. generally i just wait i get home though if something is interesting enough.

Needs other option: I work for the government and so only have the intranet on my computer and a million filters and cannot actually get to anything good at work other than MSNBC without the ads.
