10+ times a day? That seems an awful lot!

~8:20 am: Check HN on iPhone while getting ready for work. Make mental note of top stories.

9:00 am: Load HN in a tab at work

12:00 pm: Check HN before leaving for lunch. Usually a quick peruse as I finish up my tasks before my coworkers and I head out. Again, I take a mental note of the top stories of the day.

12:45 pm: Now that I'm back from lunch, I will read a few of the stories, sometimes leave a comment or two, before delving into my afternoon projects.

5:30 pm: Home from work! Time to check HN (and Reddit, etc).

So I guess that's five times per day, during the workday. When I get home, I easily refresh another five times.

But, hey, that must be awesome for pg's analytics, right?!
