When you are using your PC for work or MyLotting, do you have your TV or radio or any music on? I'll have the TV on - background sounds. I'll listen to the movies or news, while working or MyLotting. It breaks up the monotony...how about you?

I am married with three eanage daughters so at all times someone is watching something on tv. So in answer to your question, yes my tv is on as it is at all times.

My wife and girls watch tv all of the time when they are not on the other computer.

Have a wonderful day!!!

Wow...a wonderful background of tv sounds and female voices - this is great!


myLot reputation of 92/100. meeandnotyou (922)   ranked 988 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

The female voices are music to the ears, atleast it is when they are not fighting. angry They get into some very weird conversations as well, they are all teenagers afterall, even the wife thinks she is. HAHA!!lol

Thank you for the response and have a great day!!!

I usually have my tv on when I am working on my laptop here in the living room. I have a wireless network in my house, so I can work on the laptop from anywhere in my house and parts of my yard. I rarely take it outside, but I do work in different parts of the house. I have the tv on if I am in the living room, but when I am working in my office or the bedroom, I usually have a radio station or yahoo music playing. I also have a few cd's that I listen to. I don't like it when it is totally quiet. I have a hard time concentrating on anything when I don't have some background noise of some sort, so I usually at least have CNN playing on tv or something. Having the news or something playing also gives me ideas to write about sometimes.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

Good idea that you have there - listening to news or something on tv . Have you ever thought about what will happen if there is total silence around you? Can you work in such an environment?


myLot reputation of 85/100. goldeneagle (1332)   ranked 1,589 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

I can work when there is silence as well. I do prefer silence sometimes actually. It really all depends on what I am working on. Most of the time, I prefer to have some sort of background noise.

I sometimes put on music on the computer while working on it but the TV I use only for listening to new bulletins so as not to miss any importanct happening while I busy with my work.

I am at the computer and on the internet for many hours eevery day and I've got to where I feel I don't need the TV or Radio much, anymore.
(I know this is not true, I only FEEL that way!)


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

I think most of us learn, one way or other, to listen while we tap away at the keyboard or surf the net.
Thanks for responding and have a great day!

I don't have a television but I do like to listen to the radio.

I can listen to a radio station on my laptop, but I find it hard to concentrate on myLotting, or any other activity on the internet, and to listen at the same time, so I prefer not to have any background noise while I am myLotting.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

I don't mind background noise, but I can't bear people talking to me or asking questions when I'm doing something at my laptop. I can't think.

5. myLot reputation of 96/100. greysfreak (849)   ranked 2,033 out of 26,796 in people   4 months ago

Definitely! I almost always have my tv on or music playing from my i-tunes library. I was the same way all through college. I have to have background noise to really focus. Not just any, it has to be something I enjoy, otherwise it annoys me and I can't think straight. I'd say my favorite thing to have on tv while doing stuff online or whatever is re-runs of shows I like, that way I'm not really missing anything I haven't seen before, but I have something to listen to.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

I've always wondered how students study when they are playing really loud music or songs. I am okay with soft background music or voices on TV; but not otherwise.

I always have my tv on or I should say usually. I listen to it, the news or shows I like while I am here doing whatever. Sometimes I put the tv on music channels to listen and watch videos as I am working here. It all just depends on how I feel and what I want to have in addition to doing stuff here. Sometimes not often, I want it quite when I'm here.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

Right, I get what you mean..I do that a lot too, that is, listen to the tv, while tapping away at the keyboard, or surfing the net.
Thanks for responding and have a good day!

when using my Laptop i always seem to have the TV on in the background for some reason. If i dont have the TV on then i will most likely be playing music.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  4 months ago

I guess most of us like to have some background noises. Thank you for responding and have a good day!

I find that without music on while I am on mylot I get really bored. That is why I always have music on and I don't really get tired of mylot.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  3 months ago

Yup, music relaxes me too. I'd sometimes have the TV on, just to provide some sort of background noise. Thanks for sharing and have a good day!

It ruins my concentration specially I'm not good in this english language that we use her in mylot. Everytime I heard some noise I get disturbed and it ruins my concentration and forgot the words that I have in mind. I just don't use mylot if theirs so many people around. I don't like TV and radio on if I am using mylot.


myLot reputation of 99/100. lazeebee (1869)   ranked 147 out of 26,796 in people  3 months ago

I don't mind the music or TV; however I agree with you, while myLotting, I can't concentrate when people talk to me and ask me questions.
