I spend about two hours a day answering email and hanging out on IRC, usenet, and of course, here at the Monestary.
What this sounds like is that you believe in efficient time management. In other words you dont randomly browse the web, read email when it crosses your mind. Instead you have a specific time set apart for these activities...

What this means is that whether you are answering big issues or small issues doesnt matter so much because the time is there.

Usually I hit the monestary 10 times a day, quickly scanning and them making my escape before I see something interesting in the chatterbox. I also read email and play games when I feel like it instead of at specific pre-allocated times. So, I might need to make some sort of schedule like you.
